We have just had 2 nights here and can't fault it. It's an attractive building set in lovely grounds. All the staff were very pleasant and helpful, one even photocopied information on the area and walks for us. We had a beautiful, large room overlooking a field of sheep. The bed was very comfortable and the heating worked well as... more

Having decided to visit The New Forest and Historic Dockyard in Portsmouth, we needed to book into a pet-friendly B&B in the New Forest Area. After reading other recent TripAdvisor reviews, we decided on the South Lawn Hotel in Milford on Sea. The rooms were comfortable/well-appointed and reasonably-priced and the breakfast offering was very good. The staff were very helpful... more

Stayed 3 nights with our 20 month old twins sons. Staff couldn't have been more helpful. Bar service snacks had ended 30 mins by time I got down first evening - room info said were still serving. Receptionist got hold of assistant manager who got chef back to cook me supper. High chairs were already in place for a wedding... more

We only wanted to stay for 1 night as we were planning walking trips in New Forest with friends. When we arrived at the hotel the woman on the reception desk didn't even look up at us. Don't think much of her customer service. We were given our key to the room of which we were immediately disappointed. We went... more

It was very disappointing to hear about your welcome to the South Lawn Hotel, which is not the normal way we greet our customer. I have organized a meeting with reception staff in order to discuss the comments from your feedback, to make sure this situation does not happen again to any of my future customer. Yet I am glad...

Having been able to book the venue at relatively short notice we were very delighted with the professional assistance and overall attitude of the staff. The guests that stayed over were full of praise for the food and accommodation. The grounds are a marvellous back drop for the wedding photos. I can not thank the staff enough for all their... more

Really nice grounds and the staff are pleasant enough. The room we had was supposed to be a superior but this seemed to be a bit exaggerated as the décor requires some IMMEDIATE attention. The beds were very poor and would not have been out of place in a tatty Blackpool guest house. The Bathroom is fitted with a pea... more

Many thanks for your honest opinion, which will help to address issues for the benefit of future guests at South Lawn Hotel. I have spoken to my maintenance man to address the minor decorative issues, as well as my head chef about the quality of the breakfast eggs. We are also in the process to update all bathroom floors at...

We held our wedding at South lawn Hotel in June 2008 and it was a dream day!! Thanks to all the staff who were more than accommodating. The food was fantastic as was the service through out the whole weekend. We would highly recommend this hotel to anybody, it is a gorgeous looking hotel. The inside is a little different... more

Stayed here for 3 nights in Aug 2006 on Swallow Hotels special rate of £49 per night per room inc breakfast. Bedroom was a good size with nice outlook over open fields. Bathroom too was a good size if a little tired ( loose tiles around the handbasin surround, stained carpet from shower). Bed very comfortable. The decor of the... more

The South Lawn is in a scenic, peaceful location whilst being conveniently placed for the New Forest and beaches. Staff (of which there were plenty) were charming, serving up lovely food with a smile, and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. A minus point is perhaps the faded floral decor, which could do with a little TLC. Aat least the... more
