Village Hotel Farnborough

The gym is great, and is the main reason I stay at the village hotels.

The breakfast was a bit sparse, empty scrambled egg. I wasn’t a fan of the breakfast being later on Saturday - I didn’t check but if there is a mechanism to get an early breakfast (that I’d already paid for in the price) that would be great.

Bed and pillows were very comfortable. The manager at the front desk, Blue, was exceptional, and looked after us. The blackout blind was great. The rain shower was excellent as were the shampoo, conditioner and body wash which were provided. TV was a great size. Air conditioning was spot-on. It was a bonus that there was a pub on the ground floor. The host was welcoming and friendly. We enjoyed a good night’s sleep.

The room could have used one additional chair as two people were staying. The hotel room doors bang loudly by surrounding guests, but it was at a reasonable hour, so didn’t affect us much. Parking was a bit of a problem, I think due to the high usage of the gym and pool, but we did manage to find a parking space, so it wasn’t a problem for us.

The staff on reception - Kris and Bel (I think that was her name), were fantastic, so welcoming, really helpful and looked after me very well, they were a credit to the hotel.

nothing it was all great

Modern clean hotel. Expensive deep fried food and unusable WiFi. Staying on the second floor and WiFi is so poor and no mobile connection penetrates the walls. May seem petty but I wouldn’t stay in one of their hotels again. If they can’t even provide half decent WiFi then they don’t rate business clients at all.

A really enjoyable stay overall. The room was a great size, with an exceptionally comfortable bed and a lovely, high-quality shower. I also appreciated the thoughtful extras, like the coffee machine and a proper, powerful hairdryer — small details that made a big difference. The staff were consistently helpful and friendly throughout my stay. A special mention goes to Wendy, who was incredibly kind and patient while I asked what felt like a hundred questions. Her warmth and professionalism really stood out

Lovely size rooms. Great shower. Super comfy bed. Nice touches with the coffee machine and a GOOD hairdryer. Staff helpful. Wendy in particular was amazing.

Food prices. £8 for onion rings?
