Having stayed at the Barcelo in Edinburgh and loved it we were keen to try something closer to home. The check in staff are friendly and efficient and the decor in the public areas is clean and smart. Our room was of average size, and in need of some tlc with the water damage evident on the ceiling. Bathroom ok,... more

If your looking for a quiet weekend away then this hotel is perfect. We wanted a nice relaxing break and this was exactly what we got. Everything about our break was stress & hassle free from the moment we booked to arriving at the hotel. The beauty salon is ideal for being pampered and they offer treatments to suit everyone,... more

In my time I have travelled extensivley on buisiness throughout Europe and America and a aprt from a few noteable exceptions I have always found that you get what you pay for and sometimes a travellers experiance tempers his levels of expectation. Although I have previously stayed at this hotel many years ago I was still able to find it... more

This is now a Barcelo Group Hotel. Well located just off the M3, 6 miles from Basingstoke. It clearly specialises in weddings with a bedroom wing and function rooms and a leisure centre added to an original building. As such it is rambling and to get to my room I had to negotiate 4 staircases to go up to the... more

Excuse the late review for this hotel, we stayed in October 2007 just for one night for a wedding we were attending near by. We booked in advance via the hotel website and this was probably the lowest rate. First impressions were good, easy to find, large car park, friendly reception etc. The rooms were okay, not brilliant but fine... more

Having seen this hotel through it's various Management companies over the years, I was saddened to see that NOT ONE of these companies have injected any cash into what could be a great hotel. The rooms are dated (although some I believe have benefited from a refurb - due to fire!) and I've yet to stay in a hotel that... more

Good location, 1 mile from Hook train station. nearby pubs and eateries. The room was a little small and the bathroom needed a refit. The best part was the evening meal which was excellent. Drink prices quite high-£6.00 for a glass of wine. Breakfast also excellent value. ( best value if booked on hotel website in advance.) Well equipt gym... more

I looked on late deals and got an offer for 2 nights stay, bed n breakfast for jus over £200, which was a complete BARGAIN for... more

I stayed for 2 nights in August - the rooms are OK, if a little on the small side, with most of the space taken up by the bed. The A/C was efficient, the iron & board were handy and everything else in the room worked. Probably the best thing about the hotel is it's location - situated in woodlands,... more
