Guest Reviews of Chilworth Manor Hotel

Friendly and efficient front desk staff.

Could have been more milk cartons in the room.

"The hotel is situated in its own grounds and is a very pleasant location. The leisure facility is excellent with a decent size pool. Good evening meal in the resturant with reasonable prices and good selection at the self-service buffet breakfast."

Location, excellent relatively new leisure facility with a decent sized pool, food.

As we didn't get a wake up call as requested on check in and therefore missed breakfast we had some money knocked off bill instead, no argument.

Didn't get a wake up call as requested on check in, therefore missed breakfast but had some money knocked off bill to compensate.

"Certainly a good option for accomodation adjacent to airport and Southampton. Excellent evening meal and full English breakfast in well served restaurant."

Ideal overnight stay with good restaurant and bar facilities away from "Traffic Noise".

Being picky - The basin in our room was slow to drain and perhaps the bed and lounge bar furniture was looking a "little tired".

"Shame the woodland was out of bounds due to fallen trees, but I would stay again."

Evening meal was excelent

While enjoying the evening sun on the terrace the noise from the cars on the motorway was clearly audible and spoiled a pleasant evening. The cars could not be seen so a plus, and it was rush hour, no doubt making the nose worse.

wonderful pool

"Totally ruined by other guests on a group booking."

Nice setting and helpful staff

Wedding party staying at hotel got drunk in bar, tried to get into my room at 2a.m. banging on guest doors so no sleep! The hotel gave a 25% discount on paying but on reflection that was not enough. Why can't they sort the yobish guests out?!

"Review the menu and offer good food reasonably priced."

Good staff. good location, good value.

The restaurant, too expensive, extremely small portion of fish, lamb was tasteless, expensive desert, did not live up to my expectations. Can recommend the hotel, but eat out or get a take away.

"Enjoyed our stay would go back to this hotel, central for lots of places of interest."

Food was excellent and staff very polite, Spa treatments where really excellent and staff friendly.

Should have been a superking bed in the room as the room was large enough to take one.

"mUCH BETTER THAN THE USUAL PREMIER INNS OR TRAVEL LODGE"

Lovely Hotel

"Enjoyed it."

Friendly, pleasant hotel and nice location.

"A pleasant overnight stay. Wish I'd had time to enjoy the hotel more. "

Friendly, helpful staff. Delicious breakfast. Good, strong shower. Building full of character in delightful grounds.

Shower curtain clingy in spite of the magnets sewn into the corners! Expensive taxi into town ever thought of a subsidised shuttle?.

"we enjoyed our stay, great staff and lovely leisure facilities"

leisure facilities were fabulous

bedroom decor was quite dated

"Staff were friendly & helpful, no noise from evening wedding reception although we were on the other side of the hotel"

The view from the window, it's away from the roads so is quiet, friendly staff,

Shower curtain wasn't long enough, no air con if such things bother you, mattress in need of replacing

"Everything we wre looking for."

Atmosphere, food , amenities

"Very pleasant and we would happily have stayed for another night had we not needed to return home"

swimming pool beautiful grounds and dog walking conservation area friendly, helpful staff, excellent meal and service quiet, ironing board & iron, tea making facilities, bathroom extras

I cannot remember having the option to book a twin room as opposed to a double room.

"Excellent"

Extremely friendly and helpful staff

Location was fabulous - grounds were beautiful - I was sorry I wasnt staying longer to enjoy all the facilities

"Excellent!"

Location, Staff, Size of room, Facilities and...BREAKFAST!

"Highly enjoyable and beautiful setting"

Great service with accommodating staff who were extremely helpful to our requests

"It would have been helpful had we of had more information on local places to eat, we felt the evening meal menu was rather expensive. The leasure centre was very well equiped,we enjoyed being able to swim, however I would strongly recommend that people wear goggles as the water caused me to a lot of trouble with my eyes."

We thought the bar/lounge was in a lovely setting, the dinning room was extremely well managed by the manager and her staff, Reception staff were very helpful and polite.

the down fall was having to climb several flights of stairs to get to our room, next time would ask for a lower floor if poss.

"very nice place, fantastic gardens and facilaties. would come again but to what cost. I paid £204.00 for one night That could have gone very wrong if I had eaten my lunch."

Good hotel set in beautiful gardens.

"The approach via rhodadenron lined avenues was picturesque and relaxing. The staff were efficient and helpful yet not intrusive. The standard of accommodation even in a single room was excellent - so often you are put into a cupboard or made to feel a nuisance occupying a double room on single occupancy but I had a large room with a single bed in it with plenty of desk and wardrobe space, together with chair, coffee table and well stocked hospitality tray. Having an iron and ironing board in the wardrobe was an excellent touch. The restaurant meal, whilst expensive, was of a very high quality. I could not comment on the breakfast as I was fasting prior to an unpleasant hospital procedure but I am assured by other guests that it would have been excellent! The fitness studio and swimming pool looked as if they were good too but, once again, my hospital procedure precluded me from taking advantage of these facilities."

Chilworth Manor is a stylish hotel, and appearances outside were matched by those inside.

Nothing, I will definitely be booking to stay there again.

"There was a wedding party and couple of Birthday parties over the weekend, and they used the main lounge as the meeting place and with 60/70 people in this area it was loud, not good for hotel guests. Enjoyed The Club. swimming pool"

The double bed was on the small size.

clean tidy friendly staff with good english breakfast and the drive up to manor very impressive.

room on the small side but ok, mattress very soft not good for back sufferers.The table cloth on our table was dirty with jam stain on it.It was a shame that the pool was not attached to the hotel but the pool and everything else in it was brillliant.

The building was old and imposing, but the facilities modern and very clean. Fresh flannel every day. Tea and coffee replenished every day. Staff always there when you wanted someone - but not 'in your face' very relaxed feeling. Things done quickly.

Can't really think of anything

"Stayed before and was excellent. Room was too cold this time, so rated accordingly."

Clean

Room was cold - storage heater used instead of radiator and it hadn't been turned on.

Good room and fairly good value

The public area are looking a bit dated

The rooms were nice with lovely views

The bathroom was unheated and the bar area was directly opposite the entrance and was rather draughty when eating meals. The first night I ate in the restaurant at a reasonable time but on the 2nd night I could not get booked until 8pm too late for me to eat so I ate in the bar, on asking what a seafood mezzaluna was noone seemed to know!

Leisure facilities

menu prices

Nice hotel, good size rooms, efficient service

Restaurant had limited menu and was relatively expensive. No information or guidance regarding use of leisure facilities

"Excellent hotel and grounds. The restaurant served good food but it was not really to our taste."

Spacious, clean and warm.

We would have preferred a duvet instead of blankets.

"Overall, a pleasant but expensive stay - the bar would not accept cash after a certain time so that we had to cover the costs of visitors who were willing to pay their own rounds. The final bill for one night, therefore, was much more than we had planned. I would nonetheless recommend the hotel but warn friends to take account of likely further costs. Staff very friendly and helpful throughout."

A quiet, relaxed experience, both inside and outside the hotel

Room a bit small for the price which was comparatively high. It was not helped by the mirror light in the bathroom not working discovered too late for us to contact Reception nor the radio channels on the TV system working

"All well"

Clean and good value
