Will be great when renovations are complete

Great deal in last minute booking, although double could not be provided only twin room. Food and staff were great. Room tired but renovations taking place. Main problem was how cold the place was - both the room and lounge were freezing.

Room was clean, we were in room 8 which overlooks a courtyard and the light in the courtyard is very bright and stays on all day and night, the curtains are good but there is light all around them like it is morning outside. Breakfast was very good and morning service very friendly.

Great position for exploring Paultons theme park & the New Forest. Our children & grandchildren stayed in Paultons campsite which was a few minutes away so really handy. They all visited the hotel for a couple of meals & drinks. The staff were all very friendly & welcoming.
