Langstone Hotel  

Have stayed before and always recieve a warm welcome, excellent breakfast and lovely rooms

reception excellent rooms very comfortable pool looked well kept (did not have time to use) bar welcoming and efficient smiley staff. dinner menu very good. rib eye steak lamb rump delicious beds very comfortable..breakfast buffet generous and delicious.checkout efficient. location quite stunning.

minor points deducted for bathroom cleanliness. could do with a deep clean.but overall a lovely place for a break.access to sky sports would be a bonus during the football season.

Convenient Quality at the right price.

The room was a good size, the bed was very comfortable. Bathroom modern and very clean, good supply of hot well pumped water, also appreciated heated towel rail every hotel should provide one!

The main guest lounge was a bit soulless, I also think that there should be a separate function bar from the general hotel bar so regular guests can sit quietly in lounge/bar without being overwhelmed by wedding guests. Bathrobes would be a nice touch also a bit more of a selection in the rooms tea and coffee collection. Ie hot chocolate also some biscuits would have been nice.

location

this is my third stay in 6 months. the first twice were excellent but on this occassion there was a dirty room, peeling wallpaper. food in sink as if someone had vomitted in sink

Spa, and Room

Quality of service

Set in a pleasant location and with an interesting architecture. Staff were friendly and helpful and the rooms are comfortable and well set out.

Dinner menu was perhaps a little restricted but the food was excellent

The location was perfect for us

I think it might have been better if we were getting married as that seems to be the principal business of the hotel. We only stayed one night and whilst it was not unpleasant the hotel has clearly not moved with the times. The room was clean and everything worked but the decor was tired and dated. The condensation inside the double glazed window did not enhance the view. I really think that you have to give consideration to refurbishment as competing hotels have created a better feel. The bar area was ok but, again, decor and comfort levels were average in my view. The dinner was good but not really up to the price charged. Staff were friendly and keen to make a good impression and we were happy to leave them a tip but I got the feeling that they have perhaps been over-coached. No one appreciates being asked if 'everything is ok' several times in the space of one hour. Ask me once and I will tell you if there is a problem. If I dont put up my hand please assume all is ok. I would not recommend The Langstone to friends unless they, like us, were totally reliant on the location being the principal reason for staying there.

location is great and waterside setting so the views are amazing and change with the weather

Decor in the rooms is now tired and needs updating in some areas. On arrival the whole building was cold took a long time to heat up. Kept awake at night by the noise of people returning to their rooms in the early hours of the morning as they now appear to promote stag and hen parties.

It as great location peaceful and relax away from busy life stile.

I was disipointed only from hotel it wasn't hot enouugh room some time we felt not even warm. One of the reason I choice the hotel spa and a pool. But I disipointed totaly because it wasn't big enough on top of that it was open totaly locals. So in future is not worth to book this hotel as a spa did not liked at all. And when we arrive at the hotel I have been ask if I like to have a newspaper in the morning I said yes pleace. When we check out I have to pay them and price was more then the it self. Which is other hotels offer free. It wouldn't be nice inform the customer you have to pay for for them.

The location - views from bedroom out over a creek - could watch birds from the window! Proximity to good birdwatching sites but near enough to Portsmouth for historical sites, shopping and cinema when the weather wasn't good enough to be outside.

Cooked breakfast was the same every day. Would have liked a choice of eggs. Spreads like marmalade weren't of good quality.

Very comfortable hotel in a great position. Three course lunch plus coffee very reasonably priced at £24.50 on Boxing Day.
