Beautiful hotel in stunning grounds
Only a one night stay as we were visiting friends in a nearby village. Beautiful location and grounds and a lovely comfy room in the Stables building. Such a lovely setting. I can see why it would be a wonderful wedding venue. Hopefully will return again some day as a treat.

Stunning surroundings with above & beyond service
A wonderful hotel with serene green spaces in a royal atmosphere. I had to work overnight and the gentleman at night desk went above and beyond to help me with an additional TV screen and a place to work at. Simply unbelievably helpful and way beyond my expectations. My wife and kid had a great time in the gardens. I highly recommend this place if you´re out to get some relaxation.

Breathtaking & historical
We came to stay as a romantic couple get away and was put in room 211 which was a nice room the only down fall is the loo didn’t have a strong flush so never took away your doings and as for the shower and bath the water was a little temperamental..Also there is no lift at this hotel so getting bags upstairs is a nightmare without help but the building is set in some beautiful settings which makes it all worth it if you really want a totally out the way get away

Incredibly beautiful and serene
We absolutely LOVED our time at Elvetham. The castle is absolutely beautiful and so much incredible history. We toured the grounds and then had dinner at the restaurant looking out over the garden. Incredible food and service.

Great stay, could improve.
Grounds looked amazing and the up keep of the grass and all the site has to offer was great, the gardens, pond and reading areas all look perfect and very picturesque and the hotel looks very elegant, room was very clean and modern and had everything my family needed.
The bar service in the evening was great and it wasn’t too busy so food wait times were not a problem.
The only thing that let this stay down was the initial greet with the reception team, the hotel is so elegant you would expect and better greet instead there was no happy faces and no big “welcome”.
We also had an issues with the room door not locking properly which wasn’t looked into despite me raising this concern.
Overall a nice stay, my family enjoyed just small changes could give it the wow factor a little more.

We had a magical stay at The Elvetham. There is something truly magical about the place, especially at Christmas 🎄. The staff were friendly, the rooms were charming, beds super comfy and the breakfast in the conservatory was fabulous. Thank you all.
