Top Shaftesbury Hotel Reviews

George Albert Hotel & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"First impressions of the building not so good unfinished projects. Took my bags to the reception. Looked like a 5+ hotel good food very clean .i work away from home stop in some not so nice places . BREAKFAST AMAZING. Need transport a little secluded."

The George Hotel, Amesbury, Wiltshire

10/10 Excellent

"Simply cannot say enough good things about the George and the staff there! A wonderful old building so there are some oddly shaped corridors as you'd expect but they only add charm to what is already a fabulous location and venue. The room was clean, comfortable and I felt right at home the moment I got there. All the facilities you can expect in a hotel room. Bed was comfy, sheets were clean. The bathroom was clean and well put together given the limited space available. Breakfast was absolutely delicious and there was no shortage of options to suit everyone. I had the eggs benedict and felt set up and ready for the day ahead. But most of all the staff were exceptional. All were friendly, helpful and really easy to approach with queries. In particular they went out of their way to help me, nothing was too much trouble. Would recommend this place to anyone and would be happy to come again!"

Hotel du Vin & Bistro Poole

10/10 Excellent

"The room was spacious and comfortable; the air con / heating took some time to figure out but we managed it in the end. The staff were friendly and helpful, and the breakfasts were delicious. The hotel is very well situated for Poole Quay and Old Town, and we would certainly stay again."

Mercure White Hart Hotel Salisbury and Apartments

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were friendly and helpful, accommodation was clean, room was lovely. Parking is ample although there is a charge per day that isn’t clear on their website although I expect it is relative to the excellent central location. We would definitely stay here again."

The Stones Hotel

2/10 Terrible

"One of our rooms was very hot and loud because it’s near the extraction fan from the restaurant. Another room where my parents stayed, the heating was on (during a May heat wave) and the tap/showering water was boiling hot with no cold running at all. The staff came to check, said there are no spare rooms to switch to because of the bank holiday weekend. They called the manager, promised to give me an answer, but then I saw ran to her car and never showed again. I asked another staff member. They called the manager and said they will give me partial refund and discount for breakfast, but I will need to wait until 9am tomorrow for the manager to come. We waited until 11am and the manager never showed up. I left my number to ask them to call me. No returned call. I have asked agent to follow up with them. Again, 1st they said they will refund, but need to wait the manager to sign off. I just received message that this hotel refused to refund. They charged double their usual rate and they provided little to no service, no management and poor living conditions."
