Lovely hotel set in beautiful grounds, lots of history, nice walk. We stayed in the stable rooms, room was clean and tidy. Pillows a bit uncomfortable for us but hard to please everyone. We had an evening meal in the Sylvanus Restaurant food was nice although bit disappointed on the the set menu there was only one Veggie choice for starter and main course which I found the main to be too buttery/oily not great when you have a delicate stomach. Breakfast was ok again no veggie sausages, small selection of yoghurt, fruit and cereal.

We stayed in room 207, a suite. It was a large room, very clean, warm, and comfortable. The bar staff were very helpful and prices were fair for a hotel. Dinner was very tasty and well cooked and the waiters and waitresses were very attentive. The menu was a bit limited as was the wine list. Breakfast was okay but not outstanding. Overall, a pleasant stay in a lovely old building.

Great staff especially at breakfast, the restaurant food was good but bar food was limited...all meat and dough, please offer salad options. The bathroom in 205 had a cracked floor and a battered bath panel, not really acceptable at over £200 a night. The main issue was the unbearable intense unadustable heat. We had the window wide open for 2 days and a fan on but it made me very unwell (I'm on chemo) and i wouldnt book again

Wonderful wedding anniversary stay

We had such a wonderful stay at the Elvetham Hotel. This stay was part of a weekend wedding anniversary trip for my husband and I. We arrived at the hotel earlier than check in time and managed to have our afternoon picnic/ Tea in the conservatory as the weather wasn’t great. We were served by the wonderful Olga who was very attentive and professional, such a great waitress, and the team accommodated our substitutes for the food due to my pregnancy aversions which was so kind them. All staff at the hotel from the restaurant manager, waiters, front of house staff, everyone was great and gave us 5 star service. Highly recommend staying at this hotel.

No safe in our room, although safe was promised, we even called the hotel in advance to make sure that our room has safe and were asured that it has, but it did not!!!

Worse of all was the Restaurant Manager, very unfriendly and hostile. He should not work in hospitality industry

Despite that the Elvetham is a great hotel with lovely grounds to explore very Victorian feel but with modern comforts.

Very dog friendly but if you’re staying there for one night with one dog the dog supplement is a little over the top. Very friendly staff.

Love this hotel and love they have something for everyone here. We stayed here previously through a charity supporting carers, so clearly corporate responsibility is a big thing. We stayed again as it was close to Blackbushe airport that we were attending an event. Also the price was reasonable if we stayed in the stables. We had a lovely quiet corner with a view of a wild field. I can see why this is an excellent wedding venue with many many rooms to suit everyone..The staff are friendly, the grounds are gorgeous and great for walks and lawn sports. The main building has many places to just lounge. The decor is amazing and the history behind it all is fascinating. Definitely worth staying at.

Relaxing & historical country house stay

Really good value stay in a beautiful country house full of history. We loved our room .. particularly the huge bed , which was in the main house. We ate dinner in the bar ( the restaurant menu was a bit too sophisticated for me!) and our burgers were delicious. The breakfast was very good indeed .. best scrambled eggs I have eaten! Best of all was exploring and gazing at the beautiful grounds. It was so peaceful and relaxing. A wedding was going on .. looks like a great wedding venue.

Great stay, could improve.

Grounds looked amazing and the up keep of the grass and all the site has to offer was great, the gardens, pond and reading areas all look perfect and very picturesque and the hotel looks very elegant, room was very clean and modern and had everything my family needed.
The bar service in the evening was great and it wasn’t too busy so food wait times were not a problem.

The only thing that let this stay down was the initial greet with the reception team, the hotel is so elegant you would expect and better greet instead there was no happy faces and no big “welcome”.
We also had an issues with the room door not locking properly which wasn’t looked into despite me raising this concern.

Overall a nice stay, my family enjoyed just small changes could give it the wow factor a little more.

I was overall disappointed with our stay. We arrived quite late and were only staying for essentially half a night as we had to go to the airport quite early. Upon checking in we were told the restaurant was open until 10pm and last order was at 9:30pm, and then the bar was open until 12am. We arrived at 9:15pm assuming we could still place an order as we were told and the staff told us the kitchen closed at 9:10pm (literally 5 minutes earlier). Granted, this place is in the middle of nowhere so there are no other options for food that time of night. After having us wait 15 minutes they finally agreed to let us order food. The food & service was quite mediocre, it honestly seemed like the staff was anxious to just get their job done and close up. Aside from that, the heating was not working in the room so they offered a space heater (for a pretty large room by the way and it was a very cold evening). Of course in the countryside it can be expected but we also spotted a massive spider in the hallway on the way back to our room. A bit disappointed as my husband was only in the area for one night with me and that was our experience. Overall, I wouldn't recommend as there are so many other amazing properties in that region. Only plus side is the exterior property looked stunning even though we didn't get to explore it and it is also not too far from LHR / central London.

Heating Problem?

The heating wasn’t working in the first room that I was allocated. I was promptly given another room when I notified reception, although there was no apology to any inconvenience. The second room had heat mainly coming from a plug in electric heater. It managed to make the bedroom somewhat comfortable but the bathroom was absolutely freezing. I went down to the bar for some food and comfort but it was also freezing down there. I heard other people in the bar comment about issues with heating in their rooms and needing to change rooms multiple times. If the heat wasn’t problematic, the overall stay would have been very enjoyable.
