Hotel room was good; beds were comfortable; plenty of storage space. Bathroom was clean and good. Room was clean; it’s aesthetically not the nicest, but was only staying for a night so wasn’t concerned. The gym is very decent, and the pool is nice. Hot tub isn’t really that hot. Nice to also have a steamer and sauna. All this for a very cheap price - was a very good deal!

Could do with a good revamp. Thread bare, dirty carpets, squeaky floorboards and lukewarm water in the bathroom. Breakfast was good but I was concerned by the number of large flies buzzing around the dining room!

Small tv.

Room very dated. Tv so small so not worth having. No bar for afternoon drinks opens at 4pm. The windows in the room look like they have never been cleaned

Warm, friendly welcome and good room!

Street view a little off-putting but immediately off set by the warm friendly welcome at reception with full info to help with our stay. (Great idea to have a microwave downstairs for maybe heating up a late night supper for instance! ) Inadvertently booked standard twin room but Suzanne reception staff was lovely moving us to an "executive" twin, nothing too much trouble! Room was spacious and very well equipped with a small fridge in bedroom, and ironing board and iron for instance, all making it well worth the extra few pounds for the upgrade.

A traditional welcoming hotel

We had a really lovely one night stay at the Elstead hotel. It was very convenient to be able to park right outside the hotel and it was walkable into the centre of town for an evening meal. We enjoyed a drink in the hotel bar and the provisions for breakfast were very good. The spa was an added bonus.

A lovely little stay.

Lovely staff. Couldn’t help us enough. They could see my friends motability problems and gave us a room that made life so much easier. They helped us with places to eat and were all so friendly and helpful. We enjoyed the sauna and the pool. The hotel may be a little dated but everything else made up for that and more. A fabulous breakfast, which I looked forward to each morning after my dip in the sea. A big thank you to all the staff.
