Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was perfect for a quick stopover for work. The rooms were lovely, with ESPA toiletries adding a nice touch. However, I noticed some dust in the room upon entering. I opted for an upgrade to a club room, which was excellent despite the lack of tea and coffee making facilities and slightly lower water pressure in the shower compared to other hotels.
The hotel rooms were spot on for what we needed after a day of shopping, with lovely extra touches like Alexa and a smart TV. The service was good overall, but there were instances of slow attentiveness. The location was convenient for those traveling by train, though the atmosphere may not suit everyone. The dining experience left much to be desired, with poor quality and lack of vegetarian options. The facilities were decent, but there were some issues with the temperature control.
The hotel is conveniently located within a 10/15-minute walk from Basinsgtoke centre and the railway station, making it a good spot if you're traveling by train. The rooms are clean and have everything you need, but they might feel a bit small for some. The service is extremely friendly and helpful, though the dining experience could be better. The sports bar atmosphere might not suit everyone's taste, but for what I needed, it was satisfactory. Overall, good value for what you get.
This hotel was great for a quick stopover for work. The rooms, though not very spacious as expected, were very modern and comfortable, equipped with all the tech you need. The service was mostly friendly and helpful, though there was a negative experience during breakfast on one of the days. The location, a short walk from Basingstoke center and the railway station, was convenient for travelers, but there were some disturbances in the pool area. The dining experience varied, with some pleasant aspects but also some organizational issues. Overall, it was a decent choice with good facilities for the price.
The hotel offers excellent rooms with good facilities and a comfortable bed. The jazzy decor adds a stylish touch, but the absence of tea and coffee making facilities was a downside. The water pressure in the shower could be improved compared to other hotels. The rooms are spotless, maintaining a high level of cleanliness throughout my stay.
