Jayne S, Fareham, visiting Salisbury City Hall
This was part of my husband's Christmas gift. It was spoiled by the fact that we could not order any food as there was an electrical problem in the kitchen. He has a chronic back problem and we wanted room service. The staff however were very helpful and friendly.
Liked: Beautiful hotel.
Disliked: No parking; no restaurant service.

Liked: Breakfast was buffet style. Seemed to have been cooked an hour before we ate. Location good - central Salisbury
Disliked: Rooms are extremely tired and in need of a lot of maintenance. Staff seemed very inexperienced although well meaning. The whole operation needs managing.

An enjoyable stay overall.
Liked: The breakfast was very good - a wide variety of fresh foods.David (who served us at lunchtime) was friendly, efficient and thoughtful.We were able to leave our luggage in a safe place.
Disliked: The menu was very limited - expected a separate lunch and evening meal choice of goods.There was no handrail for getting in and out of the bath/shower - which made life difficult for someone with even slight mobility issues. A shelf in the bathroom would have been useful.

Liked: This hotel has retained plenty of old world charm and is a lovely place to stay in Salisbury. It may be a little dated in terms of some room facilities but the shower has good water pressure and the room was all it needed to be for the price. Great location for the city, my room was quiet but the age of the building means things creak a bit when guests are on the move.
Disliked: The wifi is simply dreadful.

Liked: I had stayed in this hotel several times many years ago so I knew what to expect and it didn't disappoint. Very comfortable tradional hotel with good facilities and staff
Disliked: The constant barrage of E-Mails in the days before my arrival - 3-4 per day - inviting me to check in online or upgrade my room very nearly caused me to cancel this booking. I don't know if these come from the hotel, Best Western or Booking.com, but I suggest you review this policy before you lose business
