The George Hotel & Restaurant

2/351 found this review helpful

Booked the 15th Century George after struggling to find anywhere in Basingstoke that had availability, or wasn't ridiculously high in price.

After seeking advice on the Basingstoke forums this looked the best option, and by golly it was - and only fifteen minutes or less from Basingstoke itself. Perfectly located in a pleasant town with plenty of good restaurants, though its own restaurant was excellent, it was good to have a few places to choose from in the town too.

There was ample car parking, a nice bar and friendly staff. One note of caution though for anyone who suffers from allergies - the pillows were of the feather variety, though I'm sure they could provide an alternative if you asked at booking.

I'm so glad to have discovered this place that I am reluctant to share it, but then thats what Tripadvisor is all about. Just don't tell anyone else!

    • Liked — It was convenient for Basingstoke, but a much more pleasant option location-wise than many Basinstoke hotels

“A comfortable, friendly hotel”

The George Hotel & Restaurant

5/5 found this review helpful

I stayed at this rather nice hotel located in the pleasant village of Odiham for just one night. It was a business trip which was just as well as it was fairly expensive - £90 B&B for a single room (although to be fair, it was the going rate for an area just a couple of miles from J5 of the M3 and 25 miles from Heathrow). My room was in the Annex, just a short walk across the car park from the main hotel. The small room was nicely decorated and reasonably well fitted out. WIFI access was available at cost. There were no recreational facilities other than the bar, expensive specialist seafood restaurant (cheapest starter was £6.50), cafe-bar-bistro, a couple of small function rooms and a patio area. It seemed to cater more for the business traveller, but as is normal for such places, room prices dropped at weekends (single room £65). There were some other restaurants nearby, all equally as expensive – however, the one I tried was excellent (thanks Boss!). There was ample parking, although the slot I used had a couple of broken bottles laying in it which was disappointing. Breakfast was good, although service was a little slow. Staff were very polite and friendly. The place didn’t seem suitable for young families or the disabled. A pleasant hotel with a good atmosphere, I would stay again without hesitation.

  • This TripAdvisor Member:
    • Liked — Surprsingly quiet, well equiped, good parking.
    • Disliked — Narrow stairs in the Annex. Blankets, not quilts.
    • Any tips/secrets for future travellers? — Choose a weekend if the boss isn't paying
