Selborne Holidays from £258

The hotel feels dated, the décor reminded me of a Wetherspoons from the mid-2000s and really hasn't aged well; and even in a Club room there were chunks missing from the bathroom panels, which wasn’t great. On the plus side, the bed was comfortable. The restaurant, however, was a real let-down. It’s incredibly expensive for what it is, and the quality doesn’t match the price. On my first visit, I had a rubbery, bland burger. On the second, I thought I’d play it safe with six chicken tenders and some onion rings, plus a pint of Coke – it came to £25, and the food tasted like it had come straight from the freezer. Breakfast was similarly disappointing at £12.50 a day: sweaty, fatty bacon, soggy hash browns, and very limited cold drink options. To top it off, the steam room wasn’t working during my stay. Overall, the bed was comfortable, but it’s hard to justify the prices given the dated feel and poor food quality.
