Hotele z: Pools w Hampshire, United Kingdom

This hotel is beautiful and just a 35-minute drive from Highclere Castle. It has a real sense of history. The facilities are great, although there's no air conditioning and the room felt a bit stuffy, but that's just the way it is sometimes. The hotel is right next to a vast estate with beautiful lawns, flowers, and trees, and the breakfast was absolutely delicious. I hope to come back again!

I was a little bit disappointed staying at the Apollo hotel when I booked, i booked it for two adults and one child and when I got there there was only a double bed, they told me they would put in a single bed for me whilst I was out and when I got back to the hotel at 8:30pm there still wasn’t a bed they eventually at 10pm gave me a camp bed with springs missing for my four-year-old to sleep on I wasn’t happy, so in the end I ended up sleeping on the floor so my daughter could have the bed with her dad, it’s a real shame to see a hotel that I stayed in when I got married has gone downhill, there was a lot of dirty trays in the corridors on the way to the room, but on entrance of the hotel was beautiful,

It’s very rare to be unable to find anything to criticise about a hotel but having thought about it long and hard there is literally nothing. From the moment we arrived (at the well signposted, easy to find and with a huge car park) hotel to the moment we left, everything was fabulous! The receptionist greatest with a huge smile and nothing was too much trouble. We were quickly checked in to ground floor rooms and given complementary chocolates as well as offered a table at dinner. They were clear instructions about access to the health centre and to our room. The hotel was beautifully decorated and kept throughout with modern decor and facilities. Our room was easy to find and access, generously and tastefully furnished with the most deliciously comfortable beds! There was a wide section of complimentary refreshments and toiletries. The pool was clean and alongside the gym, sauna, steam and jacuzzi was a pleasure to spend a couple of hours visiting. There is also the benefit of a studio and classes although we didn’t attend any. Dinner at the restaurant usually exceeded my expectations. The teenager had a burger and I had a salmon poke bowl both of which were good size portions and delicious. Prices were also very reasonable. It is obviously a well liked restaurant as it was busy but the staff were pleasant and service was quick. We slept well and enjoyed the complementary coffee in the snug before saying our goodbyes. I throughly recommend this hotel for anybody looking for a midweek getaway, a Spa weekend (albeit they don’t offer treatments) or just an overnight stay en route to somewhere else. We loved our overnight and rate the staff very highly.

We stayed for a wedding, perfect location next to the station. Standout was the receptionist - super friendly and helpful, took our bags ahead of checking and allowed us to use the facilities to change for the wedding. Would recommend.

Great stay..the room was very clean and the staff were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was very good and plenty to choose from. One thing I must say, their is no Air conditioning in the rooms only fans. Apart from that a good stay. Thanks.

It was a great experience for us as a family, I have to booked 2 rooms to accommodate the family of four, everything was absolutely fantastic. Kids enjoyed the food. It was 9/10 stars for all, except that it took us so long to wait for the room that was interconnected with the other room. I was told at first that it was interconnected but then when we went in there it wasn’t. huge thanks to Ms. Nadia from the front desk who was there to help us and got everything sorted for 10 minutes. The staff were very nice, helpful and friendly 😊 we will definitely be back again.

We had an amazing time at Old Thorns Hotel & Resort celebrating my fiancé’s birthday weekend. The whole place is beautiful, the décor is stunning, with lovely pictures throughout that make it feel both homely and luxurious at the same time. The spa facilities and gym were excellent, and the young guy at the bar was especially friendly and made us some great drinks. The rooms were spacious, the showers were fantastic, and the golf course was beautiful and very well maintained. The only area I think could use a little improvement is the breakfast selection. There were fruits, bread, yoghurt, eggs, and the usual items for an English breakfast, but after staying more than one night, it would have been nice to have more variety such as pancakes or other breakfast options to switch things up a bit. I also paid extra for the birthday package. While I wasn’t expecting anything extravagant, it did feel a little misleading for the £15 charge, as it mainly included balloons, a very small teddy bear, some chocolates, and a card, which was exactly what was shown in the pictures. Other than that, everything was perfect and we had a wonderful stay.

The hotel is in a great, quiet location and it is a very beautiful building. The room was clean and pleasant, but it wasn't quite what I expected. Through Trip I thought I had booked one room up from the smallest option, but alas turns out I had not! The bed was also advertised as a standard double, it definitely is not in the smaller rooms, it is a small double, and this made sleeping for two a little uncomfortable. The room was also very hot even though we turned the radiator off and had the window open all night but I think this is just due to it being an older building, heat rises etc. The pool room really needs TLC. It is very overlooked and we felt really lets the hotel down. It's shame as it's a lovely space - even a quick lick of paint would bring it back to life if money doesn't allow for larger maintenance. Staff were all very friendly, especially the two we were served by in the restaurant for dinner. The food was okay but a little over priced but the service made up for that. All in all for a quick overnight stop it was fine.

Overall it was a great stay, staff were great, its a very spacious hotel, rooms were a good size. The pool and gym was bigger than other village hotels I have stayed in previously.
