Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The room was very clean, bedding was of good quality thou I prefer not so high pillows, plenty of coffee and tea and complimentary still and sparkling water. Biggest problem is lack of space for parking, it’s on a first come first served basis and quests had to park in every small area and not in dedicated spaces, making it very tight to manoeuvre. I didn’t notice an electric charge point, not saying there isn’t one but I would enquire before booking. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

The room was fantastic, but a shame that there was no parking available considering the price - on one night we saw a man sleeping in his van in the car park. It would be good to have a system that prioritizes hotel guests for spaces over pub patrons like these.

Such beautiful design of the room making it warm and cosy. Thoughtful touches made it so welcoming. Loved the radio playing when I arrived, the little note and some treats. Warm lighting. Cosy bedding and earplugs. Fresh milk instead of UHT. Absolutely loved this room. The guy on reception was lovely. Couldn't fault it. Highly recommend.

Perfect base for a Dorking stay

Lovely comfortable hotel right in the middle of Dorking. Lovely welcoming touches (welcome note in the room, complimentary sweet treats, fresh milk for teas etc.); very good a la carte breakfast; comfortable room with good radio and TV, and pod coffeemaker (plastic free pods); lovely toiletries in refillable bottles in bathroom; all the satgg we met were excellent. It suited usnvery well for our stay. Be aware that there are narrow and fairly steep stairs to many of the rooms, so check that out with them before staying if that's an issue for you
