Halland Forge Hotel  

Room was too hot - staff inattentive despite being told my order for dinner would be taken at the table in the bar I had to return to the bar to place my order. The steak I had was tough and not ribeye but a very poor piece of rump. Breakfast was a disaster and took forever to be served a simple fried egg

We liked the food that we had here, both breakfast and evening meal. The room was warm and the showere effective.

The restaurant and bar were much too cold, excepting on Christmas morning. Especially for a hotel, I was very disappointed to find the bar closed on Monday evening.

Good size room and ensuite. Not overheated - a real plus point for me. Very delightful cheerful young man in charge of breakfast service in spite of the very odd meal I was served.

Unable to lock room from inside although there was a chain on the door. Opened straight on to the car park - this is a motel rather than a hotel. At breakfast I was given a cup of black coffee - and some milk in a tumbler. My poached egg on toast arrived without toast! No other toast offered and young man disappeared. Made do with fried bread from pre cooked offerings.

It was tired looking and certainly not worth £75. They run out of a number of breakfast items. Had to wait too long to pay the bill.

My husband and stayed at the Halland Forge Hotel on Friday 29th October 2011, and firstly, I would point out that it is not an hotel. It is a Motel! The room (No. 18) is extremely dirty, the carpets and curtains need replacing and/or cleaning. There is a sink in a wardrobe in the room which does not work and the top left hand corner displays cobwebs and resident spiders. There was half a 'used' tablet of soap on the handbasin in the ensuite and there was mould on the tiles in the shower cubicle, which we decided not to use for that reason. The security of the Motel type rooms are extremely vulnerable. All in all, a very unpleasant experience. The staff were very pleasing, but I wouldnt use the Halland Forge again.

Bedroom suffered from noisy road, needs double glazing

Staff were extremely helpful

Well situated hotel - slightly 'tired' good food and staff very helpful

we found the hotel comfortable,the staff very polite and friendly and the food was excellent,i recommend the carvery,it was happy hour in the bar between 17-30 and 18-30 and the bar staff were fun and friendly,we went to the goodwood revival on the friday and stayed at the hotel overnight,we enjoyed ourselves that much that we are planning to return for a weekend very soon

No frills, comfortable pleasant room, clean bed linen, excellent breakfast. The service was helpful and unobtrusive. Recommended. (For the owner's eyes only: the bathroom ceiling of room 8 could have done with a spot of replastering, this needs some attention).

Nothing to complain about.

Friendly staff, lack of major hotel group branding.

convenient. Good parking. Well equped rooms. Polite staff. Good food.

Breakfast bar and tables poorly equiped, ie no serving spoons ib cereal and fruit bowls(prunes and grapefruit). No marmalade on table. Ordered a newapaper which did not come.

The room was comfortable and the facilities excellent.The food was very good at dinner and breakfast. The service was friendly.

no-one on reception at booking in and out times.
