A super little Hotel

This was a great value Hotel and we will have no hesitation in booking again. Nothing elaborate and in a fairly old building, this hotel offered everything you will need. The stairs to our room at the top were steep but the bed was comfortable, the shower hot and the towels large and fluffy. Tea and coffee with a kettle were in the room. The breakfast included was really lovely. Full English with extras included. The town was in walking distance with pubs, shops, restaurants and an excellent Fish and Chip take away or eat in which we thoroughly enjoyed. The New Forest was on the doorstep. A great position for access to all we wanted. We will definitely be booking again when we next visit the area.

The room was a nice size single, temperature was comfortable (they also provided me with a fan), bathroom was a good size and clean, shower was powerful, windows that opened, tv which had Netflix etc, little bit noisy from the road but that couldn’t be helped with the location, staff were lovely, check in was easy, plenty of parking, great location to walk into Lyndhurst. The only thing that let it down for me was the entrance to the room (which is at the top of the stairs) isn’t very well insulated and I could hear every conversation and door slam of people walking past and unfortunately when I stayed I was woken up at around 5, so I suggest earplugs if you are a light sleeper, but other than that overall a good stay. Nice breakfast too.

A Spruce Up Required

The hotel was situated within a lovely town just a few miles outside of Southampton. There was plenty of parking to the rear of the hotel. The staff were very friendly and helped me out on a couple of things. The room itself seemed to be in converted loft space with the sloped walls making me feel like Gandalf in a hobbit's house and yes I did bang my head a couple of times as a result. There was a fusty smell from the bathroom which disappeared after leaving the door open. During a particularly warm day, there was a fan in the room but the cooler option was to open the Velux style windows which provided a much-needed cross breeze. The shower was a little pathetic to be honest. There was a cornucopia of dining options available within a mile of the hotel and I ate at the Crown Stirrup which was very enjoyable. Breakfast was largely forgettable. The décor was quite tired around the hotel and especially in the bathroom so I didn't feel there was a lot of value to the stay.

convenient, clean, roomy hotel

Great location in easy walking distance to the main street shopping and restaurants. Our room was spacious and clean. We were on road side so did have the traffic noise, which is no fault of the hotel, our friend had a back facing room which was quiet, so suggest if you don't like traffic noise ask for a quieter room - we were happy with our room. Breakfast was excellent

Convenient and good hotel

The Penny Farthing Hotel is in easy walking distance to the High Street, our room was spacious and clean. Breakfast was excellent. We were street side and did have traffic noise but that was not an issue for us, or can the hotel stop the traffic all night!! We would definitely stay here again.
