Great value for money, very friendly & helpful staff. Great location.
Pros:

The staff are always so helpful and friendly. Lovely decor. Amazing breakfast. Room very clean.

Cons:

Creaky ceiling ( but I appreciate its an old building) could hear foot steps from upstairs & loud water pipes. I did also expect a bath in my room but didn't have one.

Great hotel in central location.
Pros:

Lovely hotel in a great place, my favourite in this town. Delicious food in restaurant- worth eating in.

Cons:

The restaurant waiting staff were very inattentive, even when it wasn't that busy. Always coming through restaurant doing jobs, but not checking on customers.no on-site parking, but its free next door before 9 and after 4.

We are keen to get back there and and explore the market town and what more the hotel can offer.
Pros:

Lovely historic building. Developed into a hotel in a considered and sensitive way with very little compromise of comfort or space. Great breakfast too. The location is really good, right in the heart of Romsey.

Cons:

Don't know.

A lovely get away for a night.
Pros:

The property has lovely lounges, and my room was a good size, beautifully decorated and extremely comfortable. The single rooms (which my son stayed in) are small and very hot. The hotel did provide a larger fan for him. We had dinner at the restaurant and the food was outstanding. Well worth making a booking.
