Went for one of their famous teas including a specially ordered cake for my adult daughter's birthday. Great tea with deliciouse sandwiches, scones with clotted cream plus a choice of teas and coffees. They could only offer us 5 or 5.30pm for the tea, however close to 7pm we were asked to move (with another group) to what they call... more

My husband and I spent a couple of days here after Christmas and we were blown away by how beautiful the house was. One of only 3 historic hotels to be run by the NT (dates from Jacobean period, and was home to the exiled Louis XVIII and then Gustavus I of Sweden), it feels a real privilege to be... more

Instant welcome on arrival, cheerful reception, excellent 2nd floor room with views over the hotel's parkland estate. Without my crutches I could have walked miles! The afternoon tea requires a large appetite with the home made scones, jam and cornish clotted cream. The service throughout the stay was faultless, especially at dinner. The dinner menu is well thought out for... more

Took my wife here, with beauty treatments at the Spa for a birthday present. The historic house is magnificent, the rooms spacious and elegantly furnished, the public rooms are sumptuous, the service is friendly and impeccable, the food delicious, even the sommelier is pleasant and helpful. Can't fault the experience at all. It isn't cheap but it you do get... more

We spent 2 nights at Hartwell on a special offer break for half term. We were upgraded to a Royal Double room in the main house which was lovely. The hotel is set in beautiful grounds, service was good and the food was delicious. We used the pool facilities in the spa which were also very nice. Our only criticism... more

We went to the refurbished cafe/bar in the spa. The food was good, as was the service. What was off-putting were the 8 people in their 'robes' (aka dressing gowns). I don't know of any other cafe or bar, that is open to the public, where guests are allowed in wearing this sort of clothing. I appreciate that people having... more

Booked a one night stay at short notice for a treat for the wifes birthday. Only wish we had stayed longer or took advantage of going early and making a full day of this fabulous building and what it has to offer. It's great to see a building of this beauty being kept in such good condition. All the staff... more

A little bit old fashioned in terms of decor for my tastes but that was clear in the website so I knew what to expect. The staff were very helpful and friendly, the spa treatment was fab, the pool area nice and the food good. All in all a nice break if a little pricey. We were given an upgrade... more

We went to the restaurant for a special meal, but were VERY disappointed. We had the 'Taster Menu' which was around £70 per head without drinks, but we expected that. The coures were quite small but the worst thing was that everything had been precooked and reheated. I had a dish of cooked beef - cooked, but cold - which... more
