Top Wincanton Hotel Reviews

Best Western Shaftesbury The Royal Chase Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Room was clean, staff were all lovely and very helpful. Parking was easy and we could see our car from our window. Breakfast was amazing, such a great choice and all served with a smile from our cheery waitress. Only downside was the noise from the people chatting in the carpark right under our window on the first night. Also our room’s floor sloped rather drastically in places so getting out of bed in the middle of the night for the loo was like being on board ship, staggering to the middle of the room then climbing back up towards the bathroom again. But as a 3 star hotel it was great. And yes I’d go back again but maybe ask for a room at the back so I didn’t hear the traffic so much "

George Albert Hotel & Spa

6/10 Okay

"I have stayed in a fair few inns and hotels in the English countryside. This was one of my least favorites. It is going for a more royal feel, but the decor is outdated 90s black and silver with wavy mirrors that don’t match the royal seal carpets. The bed was very hard, lumpy, and uncomfortable. It doesn’t not have a great view or pleasant grounds. There are way better quaint inns and hotels in the Dorset area, find a different one!"

The Manor Hotel by Greene King Inns

8/10 Good

"Rooms clean and warm but could do with a freshen up decoratively. Staff were very helpful. My only issue was the lack of disabled facilities. The ground floor rooms were sorted, but no walk in shower was available for us, and the small lift in the bar area was not working, nor did I see anyone attending to it during our 2 night stay. This limited where my family could sit for meals."

The Moonraker Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This hotel is a hidden gem. This was our second stay at this property and it was just as good as our first stay almost 2 years ago. Unfortunately, we stayed on a Sunday night so it was very quiet but that didn't spoil anything. We stayed in a superior double room, which was lovely, very spacious, and very reasonably priced. Dinner was extremely good and also reasonably priced. Staff are friendly and helpful."

Crown Hotel

8/10 Good

"The hotel is an old Georgian building and therefore reflected in the rooms and amenities. Lots of character and charm. However, this means no aircon and old fashioned door locks etc. They provide a fan but our room was still too warm. We stayed in April so the summer months could be tricky. The bed was very comfortable and the shower room was well stocked. Shampoo, conditioner, shower gel, lotion and lovely fluffy towels. Lots of tea and coffee. Coffee was high quality bags and not the nasty Nescafé granules you usually get. Lovely biscuits too. For breakfast I had a chocolate croissant which was great followed by a full English. Unfortunately this was a bit disappointing. Sausage tasted cheap and the bacon was streaky and not back which was quite tough. No black pudding and only one hash brown. Toast was described as whole meal but was just plain brown. We had lunch sat outside in the sun which was very nice. I can recommend the fish finger sandwich. Beer is excellent and the staff were super helpful and working incredibly hard."
