Veranda
No ability to just have a capucino in the morning.
A fridge in the room would be useful so we could buy some wine and keep it cold so we could sit out on the fantastic veranda.
Room was very hot, though fan available was good.
Such a shame it had been reduced to a B&B with no bar.
The location was lovely with great views over the Solent and super for viewing the sunset from the terrace (if you could get on it)
We stayed when exceptionally hot in June and the room especially the bathroom (despite only using cold water due to the heat). There was no separate fan (usually founded in wardrobes) only a ceiling fan which worked but not effective. There was no bar as expected which wasn't an issue but the staff locked the doors onto the terraces when they left at 5!!
luckily it was warm weather so the 20 min walk into the town to get food was ok
No facilities, No restaurant, pay full amount upfront with no refund. The hotel has been recently taken over and they it appears that they are riding on the back of the last owners and good reviews when there was a restaurant .
No way is it worth the money .
No staff on site after 5pm
The hotel is a poor b and b at best .
Breakfast was cooked but self serve tea etc and not great.
The location
The hotel is lovely, but no vibe, with no restaurant or bar,
They could make more effort, in serving food or snacks and a small bar for guests.
We didn't take the car, so it was a long walk to restaurants, were told we could get meals delivered, and they would find cutlery and glasses, for us to sit outside on the decking.
We didn't bother.
Our room was very nice, but downstairs, no view and a tiny patch of sky to be seen only.
They should give a description of the rooms downstairs.
They could do a lot better
I booked because I had been told, how fabulous it was, but I think they've changed it fairly recently
I hope they re think and make decent changes.
Location of the hotel.
The room was stuffy.
Where to start. Nice location, convenient parking,comfy bed...thats it! Disinterested staff, no restaurant bar or facilities, info online very misleading. No TV remote so asked at reception at 3.10pm, They would provide one shortly - that never happened. The previous guests rubbish was still in the bins and the room was like a sauna when we arrived. We were told all staff leave at 5pm so we could sit on the terrace but doors would be locked at 5pm. No food available but they could provide us with plates and cutlery but we had to order takeaway. We were sitting on the terrace and at 4.55pm deciding what to order and they locked us out! Got back in after walking around and they had all gone, no plates no assistance no customer service. Great location but stay somewhere else where staff actually help!
Everything except parking, don't stay here
Fab location, clean and well equipped rooms - super friendly helpful and efficient staff
Nothing
I liked the location, the bed was amazing and the choice of bath or shower. The Internet access was excellent and supported vpn to the company server without a hitch.
I didn't see anywhere to buy Softdrinks or small snacks if one arrives later in the evening.
Das Hotel ist direkt am Strand gelegen ( Steinstrand). Man kommt zu Fuß in 10 min in die belebtere Innenstadt.
Das Hotel hat fast alles was man braucht. Leider war das Restaurant geschlossen. Das Frühstück ist typisch British.
Restaurant geschlossen.
Beautiful location with sunsets over the Solent
I have stayed here many times over the past 5 years on business. Business has recently been taken over and given a lick of paint but cost-cutting is evident everywhere - limited reception hours, self check-in using emailed PIN number, no evening food, no bar, economy breakfast. Sadly, I will no longer be able to recommend it to colleagues or customers.
Great sea view but a long walk from the town
No bar.
No coffee facilities outside of your room
No water point.
Website completely fradulent, showing facilities that didnt exist.
Rooms not cleaned daily
Breakfast was very good. I liked eating outside . The design of the hotel is very good with a veranda where we could also watch the sunset and yatchs on the sea just in front of the house. The staff gave us a downstairs room which I had requested, and were always very helpful. Although there was no one at the reception desk after 5.00pm there was always some one on call in the hotel. I felt the staff were working together well as a team as they interchanged roles with ease. Well done New Holmwood! I hope we will come again.
The breakfast was plentiful but the same every day. A few different items like eggs not always scrambled and a variety of fruit or pastries. This would be some thing to consider chef.
We had a stunning view and a lovely room
This is our first visit since reopening. The breakfast used to be excellent and served to order with a lovely menu. We were very disappointed by an inedible buffet. Rock hard bacon , tasteless sloppy scrambled egg and cheap horrible sausages. Also no offer of freshly cooked eggs. Breakfast here used to be the highlight of our stay. Also the lack of staff at reception makes the hotel feel soulless. No bar either
