Rooms were comfortable, bed was huge and comfy, toiletries supplied were luxurious, towels soft and thick. Breakfast was ok not much choice but quite filling. Had to book for dinner but found it on the expensive side so went to local Harvester, f&b instead. No discounts offered for zoo as separate enterprise. Pool ok open good hours, sauna hot, jacuzzi a little snug but ok. Dinner menu very limited and expensive. There was a bar menu but were not made aware of this at the time.

We had a lovely time and felt very comfortable in the hotel and surroundings. Everything clean and was a welcome break from other places which are themed and refurbished without character. Staff very friendless, excellent breakfast. Shame no fruit though. Location for the zoo couldn't be better.

It was very convenient for our wedding at the zOO and a bit different Nothing except breakfast could have been a great deal hotter and plastic bags for wet costumes at pool or spin drier would have been very useful

It was close to the location that we were attending. Stayed in room 207. Requires refurbishment. The shower collapsed in hand when used (brackets fell off the wall and the whole shower fell into the bath.) The room looks tired and needs updating. The mattress appears exhausted, thus giving me quite a backache with the dip in the middle..Otherwise visit was satisfactory to our requirements.

We thought the reception welcome was friendly, helpful and fast. The room was very clean, modern and had tea and coffee making facilities. The Resturant was good, again with helpful staff. We would recomend this hotel, and would stay there again. The resturant is overpriced, probably why it was fairly quiet. My wife's starter was not accurately described on the menu, and the portions were small, having said that, we both ordered steak, which was excellent, but with limited veg. The breakfast was self service for food, very tasty, but unfortunatly not hot.

Clean and comfortable. A little remote, unless you wanted to go to Marwell Zoo, then its perfect. Best breakfast in hotel I have had in ages. Not really the hotels fault, but the weekend I stayed they had a wedding. The guests had to vacate the main room to clear away the tables ready for the disco in the evening. Our quite drink in the lounge suddenly changed to drunk guests shouting at each other. Seven 5 yr old playing chase and screaming. Only peaceful place was our room, which you dont really want to sit in in the evening.

My wife and I (I know it is an old cliche) found the hotel very close to Marwell Zoo which we were attending for an exhibition of Wheelchair Adapted Vehicles, our eldest son is disabled. We arrived on Thursday 29th March, the hotel was good in all aspects except the waiting time at the bar when we arrived to get a drink but everything else was good. They appeared to be short on staff as they had a conference at the time and 2 weddings to attend to the following day. The food in the evening was excellent.

Good value for money and friendly, attentive staff. One or two things getting a bit tired - bathrooms perfectly acceptable but could do with new taps for instance.
