Breakfast was very disorganised, insufficient cutlery, glasses etc on table. Presentation of food also poor. Empty plates were not collected from table so guests had to remove them onto spare tables to make room. Bedroom was dusty and a bit tatty. Lovely check in at reception, lady very friendly & helpful.

Great location in the heart of Dorking, latecomers were a bit noisy, but all in all a good experience.

Well located, clean and comfortable. I had booked 2 nights separately due to change of plans. Was upgraded on first night to the better room that i had booked for second. Down side (which is partly out of the hotels control) is the noise from people returning between 11pm and 1am who have zero consideration and have liyd conversations at top of stairs and in corridor. No one present at check out to feed back to.

About to be closed for refurbishment so not in great condition at the moment. Small, poorly ventilated rooms. Lovely staff though!

The room was very nice but slow and patchy service especially at breakfast. Was also expecting a parking space instead of having to pay for a carpark overnight.
