Worplesdon Place Hotel

Not a lot

Convenient location

Spacious excellent menu and service

The public areas, bar and park are lovely

We love staying here and the staff are fantastic, but we thought that, on this occasion, standards were nothing like we’d come to expect. Our bathroom had not been cleaned - the shower tray had grubby marks, the toilet had not been cleaned, the floor had not been swept/washed nor had the floor in the bedroom area been properly vacuumed, and the towels left in the shower after our first night had not been removed or replaced. And finally, for 2 days in succession, no toilet rolls were available in the ladies in the pub/testaurant. And definitely finally, the food was not up to its usual standard. But we really do love staying here

Such a lovely bedroom

At the beginning of July we stayed at Worplesdon Place for a night. This was not our first stay here. We stayed here a couple of years ago and we had a pleasant stay at that time. However, this time a triple room was not available and we were given two rooms (a double and a twin far from each other). However, there isn’t much privacy when you opt to open. The bathroom is not big, but the shower is a good size one. The grounds are beautiful, there is ample parking space inside the premises and the pub/restaurant are nice. Food is a bit pricy but good and the staff is nice and friendly.

The hotel was really nice and our bedroom was super. Really well decorated with a comfortable bed. It was good to have a proper fridge with real milk. Although it was stocked with tempting but incredibly expensive goodies which we managed to resist.
The only downside was the extremely poor breakfast. The choice of cereals was limited to rice crispies or cornflakes. The fruit selection was whole apples or grapes. Coffee was made individually for us all in a machine behind the bar. There was no butter on any of the 3 days we stayed. When we asked for something to go our toast, jam, peanut butter etc we were told they didn’t have anything like that. In the end we went out and bought our own. The bagels our friend had with his eggs Benedict were straight from the packet, untoasted. It was very strange given that the food from the restaurant for the rest of the day was delicious.

Grounds also room v quite

Stayed one night during the heatwave, but room was very cool and facilities were all good., good selection of meal choices and drinks available.

The location, the building, the grounds, the staff

Breakfast was really lovely, good choice and cooked to order. Check in was smooth and efficient

Very poor, very slow service in dining room. We had two evening meals and both bad slow service though food was excellent. Breakfast first day was very good with a very nice cheerful woman, but second bad. The girls talked among themselves far too much, hardly anything on buffet table either, tables not cleared.
Very good experience however when we wanted to change rooms as first room was small and not good. We changed to a suite more expensive but worth every penny. We have stayed before and last time it was excellent hence why we booked again - but really won’t book again - we were there for a golf competition which is held every year

Lovely bar, garden and rooms tastefully decorated

The room was adequate
The premises/grounds were nice.
