Stayed in hotel recently ,had a excellent time. Service and food were to a high standard. The rooms were clean and had no complaints what so ever.
What impressed me the most was how friendly everyone was and made you feel very welcome.
Will go back when have to stay over in guildford again.

“Horrible noisey”

Mandolay Hotel

3 Sep 2006

We stayed at this hotel on Saturday night and the noise level was terrible from the disco below.
The room was smokey and very noise from the loud disco below.
Do not stay at this hotel if you want to get any sleep at all.
It has nothing at all to recommend it, the rooms are small and the bathroom tiny. It is not cheap either for what you get.
Don't go there, we won't be again.
It is amazing that they have the cheek to rent out rooms at all on the weekends, without warning them beforehand about the disco.

“Disappointing”

Mandolay Hotel

0/2 found this review helpful

We stayed here because of a work event, and the hotel's proximity to the location. Given the choice, we would not have bothered to be honest. It's not cheap either!

The bathroom we had was tiny, and you can easily get stuck in the shower - the door is impossible to open unless you're tall enough to access it from the outside. If you are on your own you stand a good chance of getting trapped.

The bedrooms can get very hot. There is no form of air conditioning and you have to leave the window open. Not only is this a potential security risk, but you may not sleep easily with the noise of the pretentious bar below. The only saving grace is that the bed linen is very comfortable.

Maid service can be a pain. There was no "Do Not Disturb" sign, so you will almost certainly get a knock on the door.

There is no lift to access the upper floors from what we could tell, and the staff did not help us with our luggage at all. Reception staff seemed half asleep when we were checking out.

Worth looking elsewhere.

“aggressive bar!”

Mandolay Hotel

An awefull experience.
The room was tiny & they run a free night club on wknds (very tasteless, very noisy & open till 2am) with a foul mouthed aggressive bar manager & abusive doormen who refuse entry to even guests on a wim...
Zero customer care & over priced.
A massive dissapointment!
From the outside of the building & the area you expect a lot more..

“Very bad value for money”

Mandolay Hotel

Zurich, Switzerland

1/4 found this review helpful

We stayed in Carlton hotel in Guildford in March this year and didn't enjoy our time there at all. The only good thing about the hotel is location, and the staff is polite and trying to help. But the rest is just bad: the room was not clean (and we stayed in a superior one!), bathroom supplies are very poor, there was no minibar, the room itself and the bathroom look shabby and smell of some sort of a disinfectant.

Breakfast is sad and is served in a room that is a disco at night, so even in the morning there is a horrible stale smell of smoke.

The bar/restaurant is not very pleasant either - the bouncers are agressive even to the hotel guests and strict about the dress code - sports shoes are not allowed.

The hotel is way too expensive for what they offer, it is absolutely not worth it.
