Stowel Hotels from S$88

"I originally wanted to book from the 14th to the 18th but the system wouldn’t allow me to do that so I ended up booking one night and then after a couple of false starts I managed to book the other 3 nights. The first night I had a room with a shower which was very nice (lovely in fact). However the wi fi was terrible downstairs but works a lot better upstairs as I had to change rooms because of not being able to book all 4 nights at the same time. Really good otherwise."

"Fantastic staff gave a warm welcome and great service throughout our stay. Parking was very convenient and secure although was a tight space. Breakfast was excellent with a good choice."

"The accommodation was appalling. First impressions were of an unkempt place. The stair carpet was extremely dirty. The room itself was large with minimal furniture. The curtains wouldn't draw together. The radiator wasnt working. There was no hot water in the shower and when we told the manager who wasnt on site, he said it should have been fixed. The breakfast was aweful, I asked for scrambled egg and when it came it was fried eggs chopped up. I asked to speak to the manager and the young man, who was one of 2 members of staff in the hotel, said he wouldnt be in till later that day. We cancelled our 2nd night stay."

"A property of former grandeur that is now a little rough around the edges! Our room was spacious with an excellent view of the garden but seemed to be at the furthest and highest extremity of the building. The bathroom facilities were excellent and the shower was great. The leisure centre was a bonus along with the provision of bathrobes. The staff were polite and helpful but seemed a bit stretched. We enjoyed a stroll round the grounds."

"5 star"

"The outside of the building looked run down but the inside was lovely! "

"Great and plentiful breakfast "

"The family room was set up in a way where the air conditioning unit was blowing directly onto one of the beds, this made it inpossible to sleep without having a freezing cold breeze. When telling the hotel staff the next morning, the boomer woman at reception didn't seem to care, offered no apology and said "there's nothing we can do about that"."

"All the staff were welcoming and friendly and are a credit to the hotel. They loved our dog too - Toby who was rewarded with a welcome box and treats during our stay - even giving a sausage at breakfast. We can’t thank the staff enough, when we realised that my husband had left his wallet in the bedroom. The reception team contacted us and went above and beyond to send his wallet back!m. Both the housekeeper’s and receptionist are exceptional! The room was lovely with great pillows and mattress - something that’s very important to me and you don’t always get it from a hotel stay. The hotel is in a great location, next to the river and with lovely outdoor seating and a car park too! It’s great that you have a car park This was our first time visiting Blandford Forum as we our considering our next move and Blandford Forum is at the top of our list. "
