Lansdowne Strand Hotel  

friendly staff, good food

We booked a executive double, but although the room was adequate we would describe it as a standard double.

Wonderful place, great setting. Great food.

Small gripe - the level of dusting in room and entrance let the place down a little.

Very cheerful and helpful staff, helped out when I wanted to check out early in the morning. Lovely building with great charm. Right in the centre of town. Very handy for Avebury and the surrounding sites and sights.

Limited car parking, but I easily found a parking space just up the lane.

Fifty years behind the times ,and all the better for it .When were you last offered fried bread with your cooked breakfast >

A bit ragged round the edges , but the hotel is steeped in history.

Polite staff clean room good choice at breakfast fruit as well as juice and would cook things as you wanted good ale local beer evening meals had a good choice have paid more and got less

A bit dated could do with a paint here and there but was clean parking was down a road but only a 1 min walk

Rooms were clean and nicely decorated

Was told WiFi was most definitely available in all the rooms as I checked due to needing it for business. Unfortunately I was unable to get WiFi in mine and nor was my colleague. Won't be going there for business trip again due to this.

Staff were friendy and approachable even when worked off their feet. Don't be put off by the tired and old public bits: the room was clean, large, and freshly decorated; the shower was great; the food is good basic pub fare, and the building plainly has a long, long history.

Everything was to our satisfaction Wonderful Breakfast excellent

It was cental for our needs

It had potential but had an air of things could be better. The Manger needs to apply more attention to detail, Breakfast was chaotic, it needed a memeber of stall to ensure when guests arrived their needs were looked atfer. I appreciate this is the middle of May, and should not need heating but the room and bathroom were cold as the outside temperature was 6c. As previously mentioned the potential is there but it need better attention.

Lovely room with very nice shower and even a whirlpool bath. Good breakfast and great staff

Everything it was clean and the room was very nice superb on suite good breakfast will go again

Parking limited

The Landsdowne Strand Hotel represented excellent value for money. It is situated in the heart of Calne a very pretty historical town in Wiltshire. The room although overlooking the Main Street was quiet and roomy with comfortable twin beds. We had to be careful when showering as the shower was in the bath but recessed behind stairs. Breakfast was excellent.

Sometimes no one on reception but not a major issue.

Staying here is always pleasant, the people are great and friendly, you feel at home here.

Staff were very friendly and accommodating. Very understanding and helpful. My room was spacious, warm and exceeded my expectations. Food was plentiful and the menu was varied.

I can't fault this Hotel.

good location

very busy sat. night loud music

Friendly staff and good location

Our room was over bar/overlooked smoking area and was a bit noisy till closing time.

we really enjoyed our stay there

The staff couldn't do anymore for you. Absolutely fantastic.

Staff very helpfull

Breakfast a bit to early for me

Room was nice and big Shower was brilliant

Says has a car park, but no where near big enough. Had to park down a dark side road away from the hotel.

Staff indulging with guests in the bar and not available to deal with problems. One pack of biscuits for two which would be provided for a single traveller. One chocolate drink instead of two - we do not drink tea or low grade coffee. Failure to respond to written request left at empty reception desk. Two night stay downgraded-if we had booked individual nights we would have had fresh towels, linnen. Shower not thermostatically controlled and shower head poor (small holes) causing spray to soak the floor. (Inadequate screens to prevent water staying in the bath) Mould on the shower tiles. Bedside lights - one unplugged and not working. Bed Head at an angle. These problems indicate poor observation by staff and their failure to report back to management. Hideous noise in the dining room (Radio 1) clearly for the benefit of young staff not the residents who were mainly aged between 40 and 70+. Very tired and run-down overall appearance of the hotel. The young boy in the breakfast room was very pleasant the breakfast was something else.

Value for money, nice staff, clean and comfortable

Bathroom/shower needs upgrading. Breakfast was OK but we were not on a business trip and felt pressured to eat breakfast quickly as we were last in the restaurant and wanted to take our time.

Staff were excellent

Very tired looking, needs a refurb

The staff were very welcoming and the breakfast was good. The bed was extremely comfortable.

The overall appearance needs work. The building is in a bad state of repair and although the place is clean it is very shabby, and they have obviously had a damp problem. The hotel needs modernising. The shower didn't work and the television reception and wi-fi was very poor.

Friendly staff and a great building. Imposing frontage onto the main street. Large room with all the facilities required and with option of a shower or bath.

Everything was as described.
