The Old House Hotel

We popped in to have a look at breakfast menu and was surprised at how reasonable it was . I’m sure many people don’t know you can go in and eat if you aren’t a guest so maybe a priced menu outside would bring in more customers. It was quiet and I was surprised by this as there aren’t many places for a good breakfast in Wickham Square . Service by Parris was amazing he was exceptionally helpful and explained how the membership etc worked and told us about the spa you could join in the hotel which again we had no idea about. Food came very quickly , it was hot and tasty and we would 100% recommend for brunch and was a reasonable price for such good food and surroundings . Going to try for an evening meal very soon.

We had a stunning 3 course meal for my 60th birthday: excellent food and service. The food was cooked to perfection and beautifully presented. I recommend ordering the crepes suzette as it is cooked at the table - highly entertaining. The location is gorgeous, both inside and out. We will definitely be going back.

My partner and I had a lovely night stay at The Old House Hotel. The team went above and beyond to accommodate us. We had a Couples Massage in the Spa, one of the best massages I have ever had! We then had a cheeseboard and nibbles from the bar menu. Paul’s service was excellent, made us feel very welcome. The room was perfect. Biggest TV I have ever seen!! Made for a great cinematic experience.

We came here for a birthday lunch and the experience was pretty poor. The food took so long we had to move our cars as we'd gone past the three hour limit in the square - we were in there for four hours in the end! And it really wasn't busy in the restaurant at all. What arrived wasn't worth waiting for. I ordered the skate wing with new potatoes, what arrived was HALF a skate wing and ONE new potato that had been sliced up (no I am not exaggerating!) and a few lentils. That was it. I would have taken a photo but I was so ravenous by the time I got it I didn't think about it. I checked the menu for additional sides, there were no spring greens, broccoli or anything like that to bulk it out a bit. So not only was I expecting there to be more on my plate, I couldn't even have paid to have a bit more. The salt in the wound was when we were told the plates were handmade in Spain and cost £400 each. I am honestly astounded that they consider themselves so upmarket only to scrimp on their meals to give us one potato and half a fish with no veg and spend the money on plates instead? Also, there were a few non-drinkers / drivers at the table. I asked if there were any mocktails, I was offered a J20.... Needless to say we won't be returning, sorry.

I took my family to the restaurant to celebrate my wife’s birthday. I left feeling disappointed in the presentation and quality of the food from what was a limited menu. The food arrived at the table for some of the party, staggered, which meant that some parts of the meal were cold. The wine list was presented on an iPad with quote “over three and a half thousand bottles” my first two choices were not available. We were the only guests perhaps not surprisingly. Overpriced and not able to live up to the reputation they were trying to achieve.

Initially a really lovely experience which was extremely let down by ginding a lump of plastic in my main course. The Manager was apologetic and replaced the meal. I felt that 2 glasses of complimentary wine was not satisfactory. Not had response to feedback form that was left.

Just returned from having the most amazing massage. Very professional service. Actually had massage for allocated period of time, if not more. Left feeling very relaxed, would recommend and will most definitely return.

Excellent food, excellent location and excellent service: definitely one of the best food experiences for quite some time. This is an exclusive but inclusive experience. All food is organic and locally sourced.

It seems this hotel have changed hands alot, and not up and running as they planned. very expensive for 1 night in a room described as a suite, lots of unfinished features, no hairdryer or tea and coffee making facilities.lots of faults and shabby bits, and not entirely happy to have a view from next room. a button to press to call someone, but nobody came. some staff very friendly, some indifferent and not relaxing environment. I sent an email to the manager about our experience, received a curt, brief response. Rude...
