We stayed a night and we were able to use the pool, and other amenities as much as we liked with no extra charge, as it was just a night. The staff were super attentive and very kind and professional too ;) I must say a room that definitely stood out to us was the piano room, with the grand piano, a big checkers and chess game, and huge windows overlooking the pond. If you’ve watched the vampire diaries before, it was giving that vibe. It was darkly lit and had painting of dogs everywhere which was perfect ;) Overall had such a good stay at Champneys and we’ll for sure be back !! ##### Lorena Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Diane 11 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Lovely relaxing mini break.

The staff were very helpful, friendly and professional at all times. The facilities were clean and offering plenty of areas to choose from to unwind. Me and my Daughter had the most relaxing time together moving round the different jacuzzis and loungers. The spa is decorative to completely relax you as soon as you enter with its rain forest feel. The hotel room felt luxurious, clean and peaceful. Highly recommend Champneys Mere forest hotel to anyone who needs a pamper or complete relaxation. Did us the world of good. On leaving we walked around the beautiful lake. We will be coming back. Enjoy 😊 ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/ac6c63fb-a201-4259-a9fe-2a7ef8170a44-1748760407925.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c5530974-d731-49d2-a3fa-b31120abf6ee-1748760408179.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/ff795381-b91f-4e5f-9163-282f032cec04-1748760408977.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/f88921d7-6882-4f48-b92f-caad25c73103-1748760407880.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Claire Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jon 10 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice The hotel is lovely, the spa is nice but some of the saunas were not very hot, and some oats were not working at all. It’s not a huge spa but was perfect after a day exploring. Wouldn’t necessarily spend all her day here but a couple evenings in the evening was great! ##### Jon Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Antony 27 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Stay elsewhere Was calling the hotel for hours - no answer. Doors locked on arrival. Check in was terrible with miserable staff member who looked like he was asleep. Nothing special about the stay or room. Felt very run down and disappointing. The breakfast was nice. So was the waitress. ##### Antony Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Danni 27 Oct 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities I was worried after reading some of the recent reviews, but we had a great time and wish we had 2 nights there. The setting is gorgeous on the lovely lake, loved the food at dinner, it was really tasty & healthy , we had a really spacious room. The decor is old fashioned and the bathroom needs updating but most old English hotels are. Breakfast was terrible & very slow but we enjoyed everything else. The spa is lovely but was very busy until after 5\. in the evening There was a brilliant pianist playing in the lounge area which was nice. ##### Danni Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Jan 29 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Champney’s showing guests that it’s on its knees ! Champney’s really need to start investing into their hotels Tired worn out rooms ,and pathways , generally cost. Cutting on the little things breakfast cheap n cheerful premier inn does a better job ! Staff wonderful spa pools were nice but would I rush back no ! ##### Jan Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 19 Apr 2025 Liked: Staff & service #### Not a bad little place Not very well sign posted from the start ( parked the car no sign to say entrance as your around the back ) also inside the spa there no signs to say for example what sauna done what or mixed steam room this way nothing. The restaurant wasn’t sign posted we arrived and then was told there was another restaurant up the hallway. It’s a bit of figure it out yourself. Rooms was very basic considering this place is ment to be a luxury spa. Room was quite cold and there no heating or air con in rooms . But on the other hand it’s very chilled and relaxing. The staff at reception can’t remember the man’s name was so friendly and also the lady who served us our food . The food was 10/10 overall it’s worth the price we paid £250 for an over night stay dinner and breakfast and use of spa for 2 of us ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/5A5E852ED1382687247FAD50EF5550C2E1B7DBAC1745087483367.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/536BF0D74586623382ABFD67A187B3DE3ED725B21745087456407.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/E4D22C7161F0EEDFEF6BFE74CBC9ADDD22B78F3F1745087454248.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/A4A561F3D9464DA0D1B842AB8AE399F60D30AA171745087476043.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Debbie 19 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness The property is set in the most idyllic settings,the lake is stunning.Property from the outside is stately absolutely stunning.The staff on arriving was obviously not a people person whilst other members of staff couldn't do enough.Our room was pleasant but other areas needed attention.The whole property smells devine but stained carpets really wasnt pleasent.. ##### Debbie Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Aimee 17 Jul 2025 Liked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities I liked the calm environment and the kind welcoming when checking in. I like the softness of the bedding and for a single the bed was surprisingly comfy. However, one the beds was very noisy in room 309\. I didn't like how I messaged before arriving about the request of the room being a twin and when we arrived and noticed it wasn't we asked nicely for our bedroom to be made into a twin and it took them over 2hrs to do so... Therefore We had to wait to get into bed, and we were tired and this was around 9.20, we checked in and mentioned about our room at 645pm. Also I didn't like how I had to clean the fan and remove an inch thick of dust just to be able to use it. Unfortunately I made a mess and left dust all over the floor, sorry. Once i noticed the mess I went to the bathroom to continue cleaning it over the sink. I didn't like that when the shower was turnt on it would spray water out over the top the curtains because of connection on the shower head. Soaking everything near the bin, toilet and as far as the sink. Was slightly amusing to turn on the shower and get sprayed in the head... Especially when I didn't tell my guest. ##### Aimee Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Oliver 2 Sept 2025 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort #### A Stay with Highlights and Hiccups The spa was lovely—slightly busy at times, but still a relaxing space with friendly staff throughout. One standout was the lady hosting breakfast, who was genuinely fantastic. She brought such warmth and energy to the room, greeting every guest with a cheerful hello and goodbye. Her attentiveness and positivity made a real difference to the start of each day and was easily one of the highlights of our stay. There were a couple of small details around cleanliness that could use attention. In the breakfast area, the artwork frames on the right-hand side had a noticeable build-up of dust. Similarly, in the café, the lights hanging from the windowed back wall had cobwebs on the right side. These didn’t affect our overall experience, but they were worth noting. The main issue during our stay was the lack of hot water in our room, both in the evening and the following morning. We were told there had been a boiler issue and that it had been resolved by morning, with instructions to run the tap. Unfortunately, this didn’t work. It was particularly inconvenient as we were trying to get ready for dinner, and given the cost of the stay, it was a disappointing part of the experience. While we understand that technical issues can happen and may be outside the hotel’s control, what matters most is how those situations are handled. In this case, the response from reception felt indifferent and lacked empathy. We would have appreciated some form of gesture or acknowledgment to reflect the ##### Oliver Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Richard 28 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Spa was really good but the rooms was a disappointment in the fact we had two single beds pushed together with separate bedding so our romantic weekend was not so. Breakfast we was left standing around for ten minutes waiting to be seated and then had to go find a waiter/waitress to take our order. Wasn’t very smooth. ##### Richard Stayed 1 night in Aug 2023 ### 4/10 Poor #### Hamid 19 Sept 2024 Liked: Room comfort Disliked: Staff & service #### Never again An absolute chambles for a well loved brand name! Arrived at 10pm,the night receptionist was angry and did an awful check in, were told there is no room service or even a snack or a drink. We were handed a paper to say that if we want to use the SPA next day we have to pay £70/person including lunch. Room was OK can do with a proper clean. Breakfast was limited in options. Check out was a nightmare as there was a huge queue and we were waiting fir over 30min. We opted for the express check out at the end bit still had to queue to return the robes! ##### Hamid Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Old Thorns Hotel & Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Liphook-Hotels-Old-Thorns-Manor-Hotel.h19093.Hotel-Information) > > [Etrop Grange Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Manchester-Hotels-Etrop-Grange.h49116.Hotel-Information) > > [Lakeside Lodge with 6 berth hot tub and private fishing peg](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Lincoln-Hotels-Delightful-Lakeside-Lodge-With-Hot-Tub-Private-Fishing-Peg-With-Stunning-View.h27123912.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Manchester Airport](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Manchester-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Manchester-Airport.h26104.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Colchester](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Colchester-Hotels-Delta-Hotels-By-Marriott-Colchester.h14251.Hotel-Information) > > [Ox Hotel Manchester](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Manchester-Hotels-Milton-Manchester-Hotel.h18787802.Hotel-Information) > > [Cambridge Belfry Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cambridge-Hotels-Cambridge-Belfry.h1103020.Hotel-Information) > > [Wheatsheaf, Baslow by Marston's Inns](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bakewell-Hotels-Wheatsheaf.h12323109.Hotel-Information) > > [The New French Partridge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Northampton-Hotels-The-New-French-Partridge.h2288818.Hotel-Information) > > [The Derwent Manor Boutique Hotel ](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Consett-Hotels-The-Derwent-Manor-Boutique-Hotel.h9535.Hotel-Information) > > [Bredbury Hall by Accor](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stockport-Hotels-Bredbury-Hall.h64706.Hotel-Information) > > [Saltmoore](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Whitby-Hotels-Raithwaite-Sandsend.h4276816.Hotel-Information) > > [Wychnor Park Country Club](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Burton-On-Trent-Hotels-Wychnor-Park-Country-Club.h1927715.Hotel-Information) > > [Caverswall Castle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stoke-On-Trent-Hotels-Caverswall-Castle.h23959535.Hotel-Information) > > [Luxury caravan at Butlins Skegness](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Skegness-Hotels-Luxury-Caravan-At-Butlins-Skegness.h36376338.Hotel-Information) > > [Cheltenham Chase Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cheltenham-Hotels-Delta-By-Marriott-Cheltenham-Chase-Hotel.h9657.Hotel-Information) > > [Splash Landings Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stoke-On-Trent-Hotels-Splash-Landings-Hotel.h1160988.Hotel-Information) > > [Fisherman's Cot, Tiverton by Marston's Inns](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tiverton-Hotels-Fishermans-Cot.h11900175.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Warwick](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Warwick-Hotels-M40-J15-Warwick-Hotel.h10444.Hotel-Information) > > [Cave Hotel & Golf Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Faversham-Hotels-Cave-Hotel-Golf-Resort.h33410673.Hotel-Information) > > [Forest Pines Spa & Golf Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Brigg-Hotels-Forest-Pines-Spa-Golf-Resort.h461512.Hotel-Information) > > [De Vere Tortworth Court](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bristol-Hotels-De-Vere-Tortworth-Court.h570412.Hotel-Information) > > [Cherry Park Hall](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Worksop-Hotels-Cherry-Park-Hall.h15952872.Hotel-Information) > > [Best Western Pinewood Manchester Airport-Wilmslow Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Wilmslow-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-Pinewood-On-Wilmslow-Hotel-Cheshire.h22074.Hotel-Information) > > [Pine Lake Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Carnforth-Hotels-Pine-Lake-Resort.h1928661.Hotel-Information) > > [Northlands Farm & Lakes](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Chichester-Hotels-Northlands-Farm-Lakes-Premium-Chalet-1.h37797465.Hotel-Information) > > [Urban Beach Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bournemouth-Hotels-Urban-Beach-Hotel.h2814369.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Stoke on Trent](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Stoke-On-Trent-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Stoke-On-Trent.h6788.Hotel-Information) > > [Makeney Hall Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Belper-Hotels-Makeney-Hall-Hotel.h1206529.Hotel-Information) ---
