It was second time staying here and I think it is time some money was spent on the place. They seem understaffed as it took an age to get checked in. My room was ok but the mattress was like concrete and the pillows quite the opposite leading to a sore neck in the morning. I took it upon myself to clean the fan they had in the room which was a good thing as it was filthy and I can only imagine was sort of dust would have been thrust my way if I had not cleaned it. Evening dining was ok but the value for money left a lot to be desired with lackluster garlic bread, quite a greasy cheeseburger and a bland tarte only saved by the accompanying sorbet. Breakfast was a better experience to get the day off to a good start. The hotel looks quite tired with freezing corridors between the lobby and rooms.

There are no lifts but the staff helped with heavy cases if asked. There were no glasses for water in the room. The unique building - based on a jungle theme - was novel but needed refreshing. The staff were friendly and helpful.

Excessive noise in corridors in the middle of the night, there was a wedding who's guests were less than respectful to those of us not part of the wedding party. Dinner menu was no better than Weatherspoons.

The hotel is run down and needs some updating. The bathroom is tired with lime scale marks all around the back of the sink and down the tiles. The door didn't lock from the inside which I wasn't ideal either.

One night stay was ok, but somewhat disappointing.
Our pre-paid booking had not registered on the Marwell system, so check-in took quite a long time. The desk staff were quite pleasant and eventually resolved the issue and said that we had been upgraded to a Bridal Suite because of the problems at check-in. However, had we been newly weds we would have been disappointed by their idea of a bridal suite. The rooms all seem to have quite narrow, shared balconies, so you would not want to leave the patio doors open at night to get fresh air. We also had to wait with two other groups at the bar for between 5-10 mins because there were no staff in attendance.

The room was close to the hotel entrance but we had a nice quiet stay and slept very well except for the doors banging closed in the morning. Could not make out if this was staff or guests. We did not dine at the hotel so cannot comment about the food or other facilities. Overall a nice hotel.

Convenient for Marwell Zoo and Resort but although bedroom and bed were large and comfortable there was a lack of thorough cleaning and the bed sheet was stained, We had to request a replacement, which was dealt with promptly. Hospitality tray had obviously not been moved to clean surrounding surface as stains and crumbs all around it. Bathroom door and floor need a thorough scrub.
