We stayed at Eastwell Manor for our wedding anniversary and before giving feedback I should say we were very fortunate to get a fantastic deal on Expedia so paid significantly less than others we spoke to at the hotel. However, I have based my review on it being a Champneys 4 star hotel. The grounds are absolutely stunning. 5 stars! But there’s not really anywhere to sit and enjoy them. Checking in was fine, but when we went to our Mews our key didn’t work. We had to return to the manor twice to sort this out as the second time it still didn’t work. It therefore took us about an hour to eventually get in our room which ate into our evening spa time, but the staff were very good and they did kindly give us a free drink in the bar. The room was fine, a bit bare but nice enough. We were told by staff that this room was usually used by staff who lived there. I think we were put in that room due to my asthma and dog allergy. It had a lovely large bed, bit hard so gave me a sore back. Bathroom was nice but it was a bit dirty, cobwebs, mould in shower. The windows didn’t close in the bedroom which meant it was a bit noisy from outside, and it was cold overnight. Breakfast on the first day was very stressful and it slow and it took over an hour to get our food. They were clearly understaffed. The second day was quieter and much better. We have stayed at other Champneys and this doesn’t compare. Luckily we only paid Expedia prices though as not worth the full price.

A slightly disappointing stay. We were in the Mews Cottages which were cheaper, but the room was nothing like the pictures. There were cobwebs everywhere, a very cheap and old shower head with taps to control temp but extremely hot water. The taps, plugs etc were all very old and covered in limescale. The carpet was poorly fitting and wrinkling everwhere and the mattress felt old and needed a topper. I felt these things could easily be repaired for future guests. Breakfast was good but a long (20 minute wait) for hot food after ordering. Majority of staff were really friendly but it’s a shame the hotel is let down but the tiredness of it all including gardens, bedroom and spa. I have never been in a pool with so much dirt at the bottom of it.

Had a weekend stay. The mews room was nice and the grounds were beautiful. Overall it was a pleasant stay and I had a good time but it was not luxurious. The service in the dining areas was not great. We did not stay for dinner but at breakfast and lunch we had to call over staff whenever we wanted to order, food came before drinks, breakfast buffet was average. The lunch and ordered breakfast were lovely though. The spa was also average. Pool was nice but there were not enough seats for the amount of people there so not relaxing when you need to find somewhere. One of the pools was out of order as was a sauna, it was also extremely warm in the spa area.

A terrible stay. It started with being told at check in that the spa wasn’t available to us until 5pm. Once going to the spa, no beds to relax on. Pool was dirty, with missing tiles which resulted in my cutting my foot. When reporting this to reception they issued me a plaster but that’s all, no care. Room was basic, dated and dirty with spiders webs in the corners. There was a wedding on the day we stayed, noisy at night from guests. Went to relax at eastwell but was not the place to relax. Wouldn’t recommend and a disappointing birthday stay

Overall disappointed
We stayed here for a special occasion being our anniversary but unfortunately found the hotel to be really poor overall. The main problem like many of the comments in the spa facilities and pool area, it’s the opposite to a place to a relax and more so a place you do not really want to be. Breakfast included was stale and poor and paid breakfast is at an extortionate price. We wasn’t offered any spa options nor would I pay for it. Seems a real shame as other Champneys have been so nice

Great place with beautiful grounds. Only thing that let it down was that the staff are massively stretched. They need more staff so that they are not constantly running around. The staff were great, they just need a bit more help .

My wife rang ahead due to ETA after 10 pm and were told the booking was cancelled (by the hotel for no apparent reason) and they were ‘full’. Rang Expedia and a room became available…. Stressful situation as all of this evolved during the motorway journey. Fortunate that the hotel was worth the fight. Circumspect about booking again.
