Stayed here for a 2 day business meeting. Hotel room was large and well equipped. Food is very good but very slow and unattentive despite not being that busy. Bar is good and plenty of areas to relax although the best seating areas seem to be taken by local clubs! Meeting room was ok but not prepared with all that... More

Could only get one night here. What a shame. This hotel was the best one I stayed in during my tour of the south uk. From the first moment I walked in I could not find a fault. Smart profession staff who are knowledgable and helpful. The room was of the highest standard and comfort. Dinner in the restaurant has... More

Excellent hotel to stay in and thoroughly recommend it. We have just spent five nights there. Hotel is run by very friendly staff, nothing is too much trouble. Rooms are very comfortable, clean and well equipped. Evening meals are excellent, £25 per head allowance covers adequately unless you want three courses each night, very prompt service and the breakfast has... More

Arrived at the forest lodge for just one nights stay, was looking forward to a fairly nice hotel for the price we paid. Waited at reception for around 10 minutes before anybody even acknowledged us, eventually we went to our room, which was down the narrow corridor heading to the swimming pool. We could hear everyones conversations from our room,... More

Ample parking, clean and airy atmosphere with helpful, friendly staff and located on edge of Lyndhurst. Although I was travelling alone the room felt on the small side with everything you would expect from a hotel of this calibre but shoe-horned into a limited space. Equally, the dividing wall between the rooms was paper-thin and I could hear almost every... More

We have just spent one night at the Forest Lodge with our two children (5 and 2). The staff could not have been more friendly or helpful and it was perfect for a family break. It is well presented and very good value for money. It is not far from Peppa Pig World (Paultons Park) and many other New Forest... More

We had an enjoyable and relaxing few days at The Forest Lodge and would definitely recommend to others and return ourselves. We stayed in a Crown Four Poster with bunk beds and our dog came too! The Hotel is positioned on the edge of Lyndhurst so we could walk the dog and walk into the Town and Forest with ease.... More

We decided to stay at this hotel over Easter weekend and were very pleased. Although a little pricey, the rooms were lovely and the staff both helpful and friendly.

Just got back from a lovely stay at Forest Lodge. Most of the staff were really helpful- particularly the people serving breakfast. We had to change the dates of arrival twice but this wasn't a problem at all. We were VERY lucky with the weather- which was a bonus! We chose a standard room- yes it wasn't the biggest room... More

We stayed at the Forest Lodge for a weekend in March 2012 and found the hotel to be an absolute credit to the New Forest Group with excellent accommodation (we stayed in a Verderer room), food and service. The dining experience was without doubt exceptional, with first class food and service. The Restaurant Manager (Jean Bui) is superb, providing a... More
