Hotel was in a great central location, friendly staff, lovely breakfast, very clean. The only downside was the lack of air conditioning in the hotel. Our room was absolutely unbearable as we were at the very top of the building.

Great location and lovely old building. The staff were excellent. Very welcoming and friendly, professional and efficient.
The en suite could do with some basic modernising. The room was also too hot, so we had to open a window, which let the noise in from the high street.

Came down to Wimborne for a family funeral - we had the wake in the hotel. Everyone was looked after extremely well - all the staff were great.
We stopped in the hotel overnight - room was clean, bright and quiet. Breakfast was fantastic with plenty to eat

Great staff. Lovely room and bed. Personally I prefer a separate shower where you can easily get under the head. Unlike the bath showers.
Will return for sure.

Overnight stay
Great central location and friendly staff. Room and bathroom could do with updating. Problem on the morning of check out ...no hot water in the whole of hotel. Which was known to staff. Therefore no hot water to be able to shower or wash.

Hotel is basic but generally clean. Rooms need some tlc. Staff very friendly and helpful.
Unfortunately we had some rowdy drunk guests above us so had a dreadful night’s sleep.

Quaint hotel
Very good place to stay.Only issue was that our room was obviously above the kitchen, which meant it was a bit noisy on occasion.We did not think to ask about such things but definitely will when we stay again
All staff were lovely.
