The Bosun's Chair is so handy for Lymington Town Railway Station, being literally just over the road. It is also very close to the town centre and the quay. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was quiet, comfortable and spotlessly clean.

We chose Bosun’s Chair as my husband was doing a sailing day in Lymington & we wanted to be able to take our dog. The pub was excellent very dog friendly and the staff were lovely. The room was very spacious & clean. We would definitely recommend it to family & friends & go back for another stay.

Well placed for the town/sea front, the beautiful New Forest & the ferry to the Isle of Wight. Clean, tidy room and very friendly & helpful staff. Property has been modernised in certain areas especially the bedrooms. Good car parking.
Simple but satisfactory breakfast and adequate evening meal.
Happy to recommend this for all the above & would certainly be happy to stay there again. Very good value for the money.

I don’t normally like to stay in pubs (noise, revelry, smells etc) but previous reviews suggested The Bosun’s Chair and they were right. Most reviews highlight ‘friendly staff’ but here they really went out of their way to be accommodating. The young lady who checked me in, the barman who politely offered me a drink and the owner who looked after me at breakfast.
The property was old but I was very pleasantly surprised to find my (single) bedroom was well decorated and in great condition. Bed linen was cotton, the pillows were a perfect size and filled with down and the bed was comfortable. As the weather was warm so was the room, but the window opened and after the kitchen extraction unit had been turned off it was comparatively quiet with just the gentle hum of the electric fan. Some guests had to leave very early and could have been quieter but that’s hotels for you.
Breakfast was a revelation and definitely upmarket with Greek yoghurt, granola and fruit and a variety of hot, healthy, dishes including the traditional full English. Service was attentive and even the toast was high quality bread.
I had been slightly surprised by the price, having recently experienced larger hotels charging less but I don’t begrudge the owners a penny. The reality was way above expectation and everything had clearly been well thought through.
Highly recommended. Thank you.

Lovely large room at the front of the pub overlooking the road. Stayed on a Friday night and was slightly worried it would be noisy but it wasn't at all. Very peaceful. Didn't eat in the restaurant but the drinks were good value and the breakfast was first rate. Would say far much better than many farmshops we've visisted. Lovely young lady hosting breakfast.

Lively, friendly pub with rooms around the corner from the main High St. Clean and tidy rooms. Good value. Limited parking when busy. As with rooms above pubs it is quite noisy but pretty well sound insulated and the pub closes relatively early. Staff were pleasant, helpful yet unintrusive.

The room we had did not have main lighting so was very dark even with the side lights on and if you opened the blinds people on the street could see in - especially from the flat across the road. A net curtain, obscured window film or additional lighting would be useful.

Staff at the Hotel very welcoming and friendly. The yogurt was the best ever, locally produced with the fruit. The main dish was cooked to our choice and very tasty. Also the pizzas were exceptional and good choice of beverages.
I will say although all the rooms were refurbished and clean you had to put your please clean the room card out or tell reception after breakfast otherwise it would not be done. The situ of the pub was ideal for walking around Lymington and Parking as well.
