Fantastic hotel. It looks great, has lots of Victorian features including a lovely stained glass window on the first floor balcony, and lots of other eclectic features. we stayed in the suite, which is on the ground floor toward the back of the hotel - spacious, comfortable, great bathroom and a cosy little lounge. If you like clean hotels, then... more

Going on a busines trip, that progressed to be a year long contract in Hampshire, I booked into the Giffard House. The rooms are all different, with quite spectacular bathrooms/Shower rooms. Beds are very comfy and rooms generally spacious (although my favourite room is probaly the smallest they have). I ended up staying there 2 or 3 times a week... more

We stayed here for 2 nights during December. Found their website, saw the excellent reviews and booked direct. We had high expectations after reading the reviews and we were not disappointed. It is a top quality place. The room was well appointed, the ensuite well equipped and the Molton Brown toiletries were well received. The staff are extremely friendly and... more

The Hotel is quite impressive in size with its fountain outside. We were met by the Landlord who was helpful with our luggage and gave us a quick tour of the room. We were given our own set of keys to the Hotel front door and told we could come and go as we pleased. The room was spacious, clean... more

The place is obviously well looked after and the staff very pleasant. The rooms are spotlessly clean as are all... more

About a 10 minute walk to town. Overall a great... more

I stayed at the Giffard recently while on a business trip. It was elegant and comfortable, very welcoming. My room was near the rear entry and kitchen, everlooking the parking area on one side, but there was no problem with noise. This hotel is in a residential area so noise really isn't much anyway. The full English breakfast, the service,... more

I stayed at Giffard House Hotel for one night on returning to the city for a college reunion. My first impression of the hotel was propitious. From the exterior the hotel appears both commanding and stylish. Inside the attention to detail is dazzling. There is a wealth of statues, figurines and the like suggesting that you have returned in time... more
