Bishopstone Vacation Rentals

"If you like to be constantly disturbed throughout the night and a gratuitous early morning wake up call, then let me tell you - this place has got just the room for you! Room 202 will not disappoint! Situated directly above the kitchen/ staff area, this room is perfectly positioned for a nightmare stay. Whilst in this room you can expect music and kitchen noise until 10pm and you will really enjoy a very early morning wake up (talking 5am ish) from staff preparing breakfasts, whistling, plates rattling, general loud kitchen noises and the smell of sausages. If you are really lucky you can expect to be woken up at frequent intervals throughout the night by staff emptying bottles into bins. If you enjoy sleep, don’t expect to in this room. It was quieter in the corridor. Booked for 4 nights, I was offered an alternative for the final night. I declined to move as travelling with a 3 year old involves a lot of stuff. We were also out early and back just in time for bed so it was difficult to coordinate a change of room without it interfering with our plans or our daughter’s routine. So be prepared with ear plugs incase they allocate you this gem of a room. They are clearly aware there are issues with this room, yet they continue to use it for punters!!! You would probably sleep better on the hard shoulder of the M271. I was looking forward to the quiet stay as per other reviewers promised, instead I’m knackered and looking forward to going home to my own bed."

"Food excellent, friendly staff,pool a bit small."

"This was lovely in many ways. My room was spotless and spacious, Breakfast was hot and plentiful with a reasonable choice. The new season has maybe not kicked in as some of the outside areas could do with a little tidy up. All the staff I met were friendly and helpful. This is not the fault of the hotel, but it is worth noting that there are few public transport links to the local towns and seemingly none before 9.30 am or after about 7 pm.,"

"Excellent breakfast."

"My wife and I had a great stay. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel is smart, well maintained and in a very good location."

"Had to ask for a room change on arrival as too many steps at various intervals on way to room E.g bathroom had 2 step drop into the room. Not ideal for elderly couple. Having said rhat one has to remember that it is one of the oldest buildings in the town. This was our second stay there and will be back ."

"Used this on a recent business trip while working at Southampton General Hospital which was close by. Lovely hotel, great evening meal, comfortable and peaceful room. Excellent surroundings too. Lovely."

"Very cosy, clean room. Tea, coffee, biscuits. Courteous and helpful staff. Good evening meal and breakfast choices. Pleasant garden. "
