The room was clean and comfortable and not too noisy despite being on the main road. The WiFi was terrible - poor strength and constantly dropping the connection. If you need access to the internet during your stay in Alton I would recommend staying elsewhere.

We were very impressed with our short stay here as we required somewhere to sleep after a wedding that was nearby. We booked 2 rooms for our family and both were very spacious and clean. The staff were very helpful and thought we’d missed the breakfast after getting up late but were able to still get brunch!

First time in Alton

It was exciting to be staying in an historic hotel. I was comfortable with the fan that was provided given that the UK was experiencing a heatwave when I stayed. A staff member was on hand to assist me with taking my suitcase up the two flights of stairs to my room. The restaurant was excellent!

Very noisy

This hotel has excellent, helpful staff and good location, but the noise is terrible. It's not just the High St noise, which is to be expected, but the floorboards creak very loudly when anyone moves about. I was woken in the night several times by other guests just moving about in the corridors or the room above. I expect it will take major structural work to fix this.
