    A couple of issues with the room. The bathroom door drags on the floor. A couple of the units doors (below the TV) were loose.

    Very nice hotel. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful.

    See above

    Breakfast was good but the first table we were shown to had food on the seat so we had to ask for another. The room was in the old part of the hotel. Good size, comfortable bed but the smoke detector was positioned directly above the bed with a light flashing every 10 seconds which impaired my sleep. Had to cover my eyes to sleep. This was room 9, Goodwood. We have stayed in the modern part before which is far better. Shower good but mirror above dressing table was positioned high up with poor lighting. Only 1 bedside light and no ac although there was a fan.

    The hotel room was to hot no ventilation and no air con. The window only opened a few inches. Drinks expensive.

    Beautiful accommodation, bar and outdoor seating area. We ate in the courtyard and it was lovely and great food.

    We were placed in the old building. We never saw any other resident or staff member. This part of the building means you have to access the main building by walking around the car park. This felt like a completely different hotel and not the one I felt I was checking into. The hotel was far from full and we are not sure why we were placed in this dead part of the hotel, other than we were booking.com customers. We still paid nearly £100 for 1 night so not exactly cheap. As stated I just feel I didn’t stay at the hotel I booked. Did not feel welcome at all and all in all quite disapponted.

    The main reception and dining areas are lovely with a nice atmosphere. Breakfast was good.

    Excellent shower but my husband found it slippy so a non slip might be useful.

    My husband and I are vegetarians, Wildes has a veg/vegan menu and were very happy to fulfil my request. The food was lovely, beautifully cooked and presented. Staff delightful. Location very nice, lovely walk from the front door into the countryside.

    Great restaurant, adequate room but I would stay in the new part of the hotel next time.

    I thought the other parts of breakfast; cereals, etc were far below comparable hotels. There was continental breakfast available to order, but almost every hotel I have stayed in have these elements on the buffet, and that was disappointing. I would have expected to see fresh fruits, compotes, yogurts, pastries and croissants on display. My room was in the old part of the hotel, with no internal access to reception, gym and the restaurant. Very comfy bed and decent bathroom, but no means to regulate temperature, lots of noise at 5.00am from room above.

    Cooked elements of breakfast were fine.

    As there were 3 weddings on while we were staying over the weekend, we could hear the discos from our room.

    Hotel was amazing, friendly staff, lovely room, food in the restaurant was lovely, we couldn’t fault it. Portions were very generous.

    The room needed refurbishing particularly in the window area. The shower flooded the bathroom. The location of the hotel is awkward unless you're driving as there are no local taxis and Uber rarely pick up there. We had to wait over an hour to get to our destination (and also on the return journey) for an evening wedding reception, although the venue was only a ten minute drive. This spoilt our evening.

    The communal areas are all beautiful and the staff were friendly and helpful. The orangery is a lovely place to eat and the robot waiters are fun. The cooked breakfast is excellent as is the food in the orangery. The bedding is great quality and the shower was powerful. The room was quiet.

    Asked for a small bread roll during the wedding breakfast for my 8 month old grandson and the chef refused saying no extras. A bit petty considering the amount of money that was spent by the wedding party.

    Excellent for the wedding we attended

    Not much atmosphere in the bar area or lounge/reception area. A car is needed as there’s not a lot to do in walking distance

    Breakfast was nice , the food was fresh. The evening meal was lovely. The hotel was decorated nicely and the room was big and comfortable.
