We stayed here for one night and after checking in, if we could have left, we would. Our room cost £126 and it was a huge disappointment; we've stayed in cheaper and much nicer places in the lovely Christhurch. The room was basic, small and ugly. It overlooked a car park but had no coverings on the window, expect the... More

Stayed her for 3 nights. Found the staff very helpful,. Bedroom & bathroom clean & tidy. Food was excellant. Asked for half bottle of wine, They did not have one, but gave us a full bottle at half bottle price and said tht what we do not drink he would sell from the bar. Will certainly return.

My wife and I stayed here for a week and had a very enjoyable stay. Staff were excellent and friendly nothing was too much trouble. We had room 3 which overlooked the garden. We eat in the restaurant during our stay as we had taken advantage of the dinner when we booked, the food was good. Coupled with a short... More

We recently had occasion to visit Christchurch and chose the Waterford Lodge because of their website presentation. The place looked nothing like the photo's on the website, a lot of "photo-shopping" had obviously been utilized, it is the last time I let the home page picture help me decide on a hotel. The shower was blocked, there was only one... More

Stayed here for 1 night whilst on Business in the area. The room was very large think it must have been a family room. Was clean and tidy The hotel is fairly dated but provides a resonable stay Did not eat in the restaurant so cant judge the food

Stayed here after booking at the last minute as my husband suddenly had to work over the bank holiday weekend. Arrived not expecting a great deal especially after reading some negative reviews on trip advisor. Check-in staff very friendly and welcoming. Arrived in our superior room which was very light and bright and even had a massage chair which was... More

Room was really good as were the reception staff but the restaurant lets the hotel down, at best its mediocre. The hotel make a big play of all food freshly cooked and that you will have to wait around half an hour, so based on that you do have great expectations. Sadly the restaurant doesn't live up to them as... More
