We had a lovely stay here as a family of 3. Breakfast was some of the best we’ve had, drink options were fantastic. The room spacious, clean and had everything in we could need. Minor thing to mention the room was extremely hot! Turned all heating off and opened the windows helped. We will for sure be returning. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Very nice rooms and a great location. Unfortunately the kitchen flooded on the Saturday night so we couldn't get our cooked breakfasts. I realise this is beyond the hotels control but I cant give 5 stars without my cooked breakfast.

Great choice

Charming Inn and upscale pub. Dinner and breakfast were both excellent. Full breakfast included. Room was very comfortable. (Best towels ever!) Staff was very accommodating. 20 minutes from Southampton but just what we wanted for comfort. Would stay here again

An excellent stay in a very nice room with good service. We had a meal with local friends on Saturday evening which was to a very good standard. Would recommend as a great location central to lots of New Forest attractions.

Dog friendly stay

We booked The Cromwell Arms because of its “dog friendly” status and it was. Dogs allowed in the dining room (one area which is absolutely fine)!, free dog biscuits to help yourself and a once only cleaning fee of £15. The room was very spacious and well finished. Excellent touches like proper black out curtains and free artisan coffee and teas, fresh milk in fridge which were replenished. The sound proofing from outside (important as beside busy road) was excellent but not matched with internally - any corridor noise or next door was very apparent. Overall, we would happily return. A short stroll into Romsey which is a lovely market town.

Pre-cruise stop

Good hotel, fine food, very pleasant room. Only negative was check in as we arrived at 2:15 to find the receptionist on a call, no issue with that until it became clear she was on to a colleague and complaining over 'the amount of work she had been asked to do'........10 minutes later she was still on the call although we had stood waiting. When the call ended her welcome was "you alright there?". Not a great start but thereafter all was very good

The food was good but the time it took to get our wine at dinner and the sweet menus was terrible The room Green drake was the hottest we have ever stayed in and you could not cool it enough with fans that were provided .they were too noisy to have on over night The people in room above so noisy from 11pm till 2am and we think they also had a dog you could hear then again at 5am We were not asked at check out how our stay was so i did not bother to say anything as they were not interested enough to find out

We enjoyed our birthday stay but we’re scammed while there. Nationwide got in touch by email because we were unable to answer the messages they were sending to our home. Tried repeatedly to phone out from our room to 0800 number but refused every time. Luckily I located Nationwide in Romsey was available to us, so we called into there & solved our problem no thanks to your hotel.

Not good enough

The whole room would benefit from a deep clean particularly bathroom but found black hairs in the bedroom and a hairball on the bed throw and the bed carried several yellow stains! However by far the biggest complaint is lack of hot water which remained lukewarm throughout the 2 days despite reporting it on the 1st morning and met with the comment nobody else has complained. Water should be 50c at taps and this never met that temperature as you could run it for several minutes while holding your hand under the water quite easily which wouldn't be the case if it was the correct safe temperature. Food was OK but pricey and plentiful.

Love coming to stay here always really good. Would have been five stars had we hit a quiet room which we requested and cobwebs on ceiling and a stray blonde hair on the tartan decoration pillow.
