Loved the hotel just not our basement room
Pros:

The staff were excellent. Bar and food were great!

Cons:

We had a basement room - unfortunately there was a wedding (which they do say there could be) but we were not prepared for the noise above us (probably kids having a great time).

Good and some considerations
Pros:

The staff (Daisy) was extremely kind and helpful. The gardens are picturesque. Breakfast was served and delicious.

Cons:

There was no wi-fi connection in our apartment because we were not in the main building but like in an annex. We also went to Southampton for our cruise the next day but it was not close to the terminals - cost anout 40 pounds by taxito get there. One bulb was flickering in the kitchen so it was annoying.

Overall a pleasant stay with room needing a bit of TLC
Pros:

All of downstairs was lovely, garden immaculate

Cons:

Our room was a bit tired, needed a bit of a paint and shutters not great, I appreciate that they might have been original but needed attention or bypass and put blinds in front (like I think all the other rooms had)

Wunderschönes Hotel mit genialem Keller-Appartement
Pros:

Geschmackvoll eingerichtetes Appartement im Untergeschoss. Herrschaftliches Anwesen mit gepflegter Gartenanlage. Haben das „Old English Breakfast“ genossen, aber auch die vielen anderen angebotenen Alternativen sahen lecker aus. Sehr freundliches und zuvorkommendes Personal. Die Größe des Appartements und die moderne Ausstattung haben uns gefallen. Bequemes Bett und gut ausgestattete Küchenzeile. Überhaupt - das ganze Ambiente: phänomenal. Kompliment zu der grandiosen Idee, dieses schöne Haus als Hotel zu nutzen und Gästen zur Verfügung zu stellen. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und können Orange Grove Hotel & Gardens nur weiterempfehlen.

Cons:
