I stayed here for a night recently, very convenient location right at the city centre…read more Beautiful interior, I would say not that long ago that it must have been refurbished in high standards. The bed was very comfy, lots of pillows, dark furniture, modern shower. Their breakfast was pretty good although the chef decided to discard my preference for scrabbled eggs and offered a simple fried one, just because ?? I did raise it to the waiting staff and he did remember my order and offered to correct it, but I was too hungry to wait :-) More eclectic options from the typical breakfast are also offered, like eggs Benedict, cooked per order, so I will definitely give them a try next time I'm around. It would be appreciated if they would provide in advance tips for accessing the wifi from a non-Windows device / Internet explorer rather than having to call their reception to troubleshoot it. Even in that scenario though, I still didn't manage to connect successfully from my room, luckily I could use the phone fine - 4G reception is strong within the centre. Last but not least: book your breakfast from the reception rather than at the restaurant on the spot: it's about £4 cheaper that way! Enjoy!!!

The White Horse was saved from the threat of nearly closing and knocked down to make way for new…read morehomes. It was purchased by Mitchells & Butlers (Sizzling Pub Co pub) and totally transformed. It is not only a hotel but a successful pub which seems to have built much of the new business around food trade. It reopened with its new smart look and now offers decant pub grub for reasonable prices. With it been owned by a chain the food is clearly chain type food with it's snazzy well planed menus to suit all tastes and with everything looking perfect but like most chains it does lack from a chef ran kitchen rather than everything from packets or the freezer but in general the quality of the food meets customers expectations. They offer a number of meal deals very much like the likes of Witherspoons. Overall Good value, smart decor, clean, friendly staff with fair price / chain type food

The White Horse Hotel has recently been renovated inside and though I have not had the pleasure of…read morestaying in the hotel section I have been to the restaurant and it was a very enjoyable experience. The food arrived in very good time and was delicious. The chocolate brownie almost defeated me because it was so massive I nearly didn't finish it. The interior is now beautiful and now has the appearance of a swanky restaurant. I would highly recommend dining at this place to anoyone. The small complaint I had was that the music was a tad loud but that us nothing really.

Such a lovely place to have breakfast! It has a conservatory feel which was great with the sun…read moreshining through. The breakfast choices were really good - there's something for everyone. I had eggs royale and it was perfect. I tried my boyfriend's 'Houndgate Benedict' which sounded amazing: its eggs benedict on a cheese scone. Unfortunately this makes it a very dry and heavy dish, he said he wouldn't get it again. The staff were attentive and friendly. I did find the coffee was a little pricey for a very small americano: £2.20. A same size cappuccino was £2.80. I didn't find the coffee good enough for that price. But overall breakfast for 4 was £35. Good value!

A league of its own…read more I really enjoy nice hotels, its becoming a bit of a hobby to plan for the additional price of nice hotels into my get-a-way plans. This place was a fantastic discover and I cannot wait to come back! I haven't experienced this level of elegance or luxury in quite a while. It truly has the perfect mixture of modern innovation and convenience with the old style boutique feel. By modern convenience I'm talking spacious well decorated rooms, and TVs in your bathtub. A TV in your bath tub is exactly what you want when staying at a five star hotel, ha ha. My back deck opened onto immaculately groomed golf course grounds with a little table and chairs to enjoy the gorgeous morning I had there. There are three restaurants on the grounds and a cocktail bar, not too shabby! I loved the rooms in the old hall which have traditional influences, the drawing room, the morning room etc... BUT THE SPA IS AMAZING. Imagine a swimming pool sized hot tub with a water fountain in the middle and different stations with different style jets. dry hot rooms "Tropicarium", wet hot rooms, cold rooms, foot baths, lap swimming pool, whatever you want! great location to lay out and look over the grounds as well. Everything at this hotel feels plush and the service is dedicated to making sure you enjoy your stay. I was sincerely impressed by this place and call it among the best I've ever been!
