Fantastic hotel! Perfect location. Lovely staff, free parking, and spotlessly clean. There's always something in the cleanliness area that makes me pull a face in most hotels I've stayed in, but not here, absolutely spotless! Lovely stay, highly recommended, and will most definitely return

For a consecutive month, I booked with a Greene King Inn to include an evening meal with the breakfast. The hotel is situated in the middle of a busy high street with great parking at the rear which is easily accessible. I was warmly welcomed and directed to my room which was nice and clean. It was warm and I asked for a fan which was supplied quickly. I went for a 1 hour speed walk and came across a village called Chawton which was a lovely part of the world to walk around. The included evening meal was really enjoyable and served in good time. I had a solid night's sleep and a hearty breakfast got me off to the best start. I would proactively look to book here again next time I am down there.

It's not possible to explain how fantastic the staff were. I got stuck and called the emergency number and the team were amazing and helped. On to the normal nitty gritty: there is plenty of parking, you need to log your reg number when you check in on to their tablet. Rooms are nice, not too fancy but the bed was super comfortable and you have blackout blinds if you want to have a lay in. The bathroom was super clean, and a great size. The only issue (which is not the hotel's fault!) is taxis (including Ubers) around the area are almost non-existent. If you're going, make sure you can book a taxi well in advance as I was not able to book one on the day. I would definitely stay here again if I'm in the area.

The highlighted parts of the breakfast menu were ridiculously unreadable. Surely the letters should be in white to stand out against the dark background. That ruined my breakfast.
