“Serendipity 18 November 2011”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 November 2011

person found this review helpful

Frustrated with a blockage on the M4, we left the motorway and desparate for food, we followed our satnav to here. Mark Pennells bought the hotel in September and by the standard of service we received we are sure he will make it a successful venue. No request was too much for the owner, whom we had come across at The Ritz. We were so impressed we cancelled our destination hotel and stayed here instead. The bed and bath rooms were large, well furnished and comfortable. The hotel atmosphere is relaxing.
.
We look forward to our next visit. Mark has started to upgrade the hotel and has plans for an outdoor wedding venue and to improve the three acres of gardens and woodland. His main task is to make people aware of the gem he has here for business and leisure visitors alike. We wish him well.

“One night stay-only guests”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 November 2011

An excellent hotel in all respects. Friendly,attentive staff, clean, fresh rooms, delicious food eaten with a pleasant background of unobtrusive music, good value. It has the charm of a fine old country residence,well cared for . No lift.

“October 7-8, 2011 stay”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 October 2011

We liked it so much we stayed an extra night! Old facility, up to date in the essentials. This means huge rooms and baths; just wonderful. New owners and very attentive staff. The grounds are out of another time and magnificent. We loved it. The food, a good, solid B+. Not much else around, of if walking as we were it was a grand place to relax. My wife had a massage from a supplier out of the hotel that was heavenly.

Room Tip: Get the room with the dolphins in the bathroom!

“New Owners”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 October 2011

We stayed at Chiseldon House Hotel whilst away on a business trip. On arrival we met the new owners who told us about their exciting plans for the hotel. However, with a comfortable room, complete with complimentary WIFI, great friendly staff and a Chef who produced a fantastic meal they do not need to do much to make this hotel stand out from the crowd. This hotel has a true country house feel, set back from the road and nestling amongst established trees and shrubs, we will definitely be back so that we can enjoy afternoon tea on the terrace and enjoy the Wisteria which wraps its self around this historic house.
Great motorway network nearby- we will be back -

“Tired”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 5 September 2011

very tired and very disappointed with quality for the price. Friendly but added disappointment that (a post wedding) Sunday breakfast finished at 9.30 sharp! Needs a re-fit to get value for money at current prices
