Recommend the kings room if you want to stay, easy check-in via a code sent on the day very clean and full of history
Pros:

Very good hotel we stayed in the kings room and it was excellent really liked the fact that there was no boring check-in just a code which was totally different to anywhere else we’ve stayed

Cons:

There was no bar or restaurant which we expected from reviews but not a problem as close to plenty

Enjoyable despite the odd quirks . Would use again happily
Pros:

Lovely property. Room was very nice . Liked the ease of checking in with the access code

Cons:

No staff to assist with anything. Had to go across the road to the Derby hotel to ask for another loo roll ! Although the room was nice and the bed very comfortable. It did require a more thorough clean the jacuzzi bath did have hair in it . And silly things like same of the lights would not turn on and one of the tvs did not seem to respond to the remote . The plug also did not work in the sink .

Utter filth! No care and consideration for paying customers. Couldn’t wait to leave!
Pros:

Absolutely nothing!

Cons:

Absolutely everything! I have never stayed anywhere quite as dirty. I am a woman travelling on my own, and I actually feel quite upset about being here, physically sick in fact. Filthy bathroom with mould & hairs, stained bed cushions, rotten windows and generally grubby & smelly.

I have booked this hotel because I need to fly from Bournemouth Airport tomorrow at 6:15 am and there is no way I will sleep or be able to use the bathroom, apart from having to use the toilet.

The photos and reviews of this hotel were good, and the fact that it was advertised as £165 discounted to £77, I thought I had found a real bargain. Being here, I now understand why! It is utterly disgusting.

Comfortable stay. Old world charm. Good cooked breakfast
Pros:

The cooked breakfast was great - really hot and fresh, good quality ingredients. If you like a continental buffet breakfast, this isn't the place for you. The room was big and the bed was comfortable.

Cons:

The bathroom in our room was very small - unnecessarily so - and a little tired in places. There was no fan in the room (although we were subsequently told that there would be. There are also very few staff at Langtry Manor - to talk to reception staff you need to go across the road to the Derby. We didn't see anyone at the Langtry for the whole time. Also be aware that rooms are only serviced every 3 days.
