Welcome to The Stones Hotel

  We didn't stay here, just had dinner. We rang to book a table but we needn't have bothered as we were the only ones in the restaurant the whole time.... read more Unfortunately there was nothing on the starter menu we liked so we just had a main course. This was nicely presented and very tasty, but again it was the only thing we liked on the menu. The waiter was lovely, polite and helpful. I think they need to change the menu to attract more guests, at least include steak. We did enjoy our meal, but being the only ones there wasn't so good.

  Stopped here to save me driving very early to GoSkyDive. I did not have a huge amount of time to book so went for somewhere reasonably close. I needed a... read more twin room for myself and my goddaughter, so booked the snug twin with view of the golf course. Snug is a fair description, but selling the view of the golf course across the busy road, is a real stretch. Okay now the peculiarities - a large really nice bathroom - it was much better than the bedroom and almost as large. I think I would rather have had a bigger room, and a smaller bathroom. It was a very hot room and for security or health and safety reasons the windows open about an inch. Then there was the kettle on the shelf with the tea and coffee making facilities. The cable was too short to reach the nearest socket, so you have to boil the kettle on the floor of your snug room, which would give a health and safety officer cause for concern. Also the main centre light in the room was a fair representation of a firefly stuck behind the lampshade. As for the beds we could both feel the springs in our respective beds, but I have always found single beds in Hotels are rubbish. The small interaction with the staff was okay but we were left puzzled about the breakfasts. I could have paid an... Stopped here to save me driving very early to GoSkyDive.

The small interaction with the staff was okay but we were left puzzled about the breakfasts. I could have paid an extra £2 when booking to get breakfast for both of us, but I thought we would be out before breakfast was served (as it happens they serve from 06:30). I asked if we could pay there for a breakfast and was told it was £12.50 a head, I nearly laughed, I have worked in catering so I know what the cost of a full English is, even with locally prepared produce, and trust me it's not £12.50! So you annoyed a customer who will not return and lost some extra income - way to go! More

  Had Sunday lunch here today and it was delicious. Not at all expensive and excellent service. Pubs could learn a lot from the hotel trade in attention to detail and... read more good service. We will be back! Thank you

  Beautiful setting with amazing views from terrace at front of hotel. Staff were friendly and am sure would be really helpful if required.

Great place to hold a wedding.... read more Beautiful decor to add your personal touches to make your perfect wedding.
Drinks pricey as usual and my gin and lemonade tasted like the smell of a toilet cleaner and served in just a small straight glass
Bedrooms spacious and amazing bathroom. Only fault was the walls and tiles were a bit marked and one of the sink unit chrome leg was very rusty. Over all... very impressed with the room.
Bit of a shock to find out check out was 10.30am..... I thought this was too early. You can extend but costs £10 per hour

  Reasonable hotel. Rural Location on a main road. Good breakfast and room. One woman receptionist very helpful regarding Park and Ride to Salisbury which at time of visit was free.... read more Didn’t have any evening meals there but went to The Old Castle PH which is a Harvester photo attached

  This was not the best hotel I've stayed in was not impressed with the restaurant staff service was slow and breakfast was cold . The mattress in room was awful... read more could feel springs !! Also waited ages to be served at the bar it wasnt that busy !! Overall didn't find this hotel very good only can say it was clean and tidy considering was deluxe double room .!!

  I attended this hotel to photograph a wedding.
From the moment my coleague and I arrived and introduced ourselves as the wedding photographers, we were made welcome and the... read more staff went over and above to acommodate.
The way that the venue was set up for the wedding ceremony and the wedding reception was beautiful - from a photography point of view the white fabric used to decoarete the rooms created great ambient light making photography easier and ultimately creatng better images.
The meal served was superb.
From start to finish the staff were pleasant, polite, efficient and worked hard to ensure everything went smoothly.
I would certainly recommend this hotel s an exceptional wedding venue
My only minor criticism is that the rooms are a bit stuffy and get very warm. More

  Wanted to visit Stonehenge, the stones hotel is the perfect overnight stay. Comfy basic room a little hot (thankful for the fan) and stuffy (was glad not Hot weather out).... read more Tea and coffee facilities, ensuite bathroom. Restaurant, but i didn't eat there except for a breakfast - nice but not great from what i could see.
Staff very nice and helpful.... I was there as a solo traveller, felt very safe.
Bus stop outside for Salisbury....

  We chose to stay here because the location was great for visiting both Stonehenge and Salisbury . We arrived early Friday evening and decided to eat in the hotel restaurant.... read more A little surprised to discover that there was only one young guy who was covering both the bar and the restaurant. He was very polite, and is probably the main reason why we decided to give the place three stars. The same young guy was left to take orders & serve breakfast next morning, as well as provide room service to other parts of the hotel. Where were the hotel staff? Where was the manager? Net result: it took almost an hour before our breakfast order was taken (not his fault), and some guests were becoming a little irritated, especially when orders were taken from a family who had just arrived while a lady on the table next to us was waiting even longer than us. When breakfast arrived, the order was wrong and so had to go back into the kitchen to be corrected. When breakfast was eventually served, it was ‘adequate’ but not particularly generous. Certainly not what we expected given that we had paid extra for a decent breakfast. Because the breakfast was late, we ended up missing our slot at Stonehenge, which we had booked the night before online. We decided to eat out that night, visiting a really lovely Indian restaurant in Salisbury (Anokaa, in...

Certainly not what we expected given that we had paid extra for a decent breakfast. Because the breakfast was late, we ended up missing our slot at Stonehenge, which we had booked the night before online. We decided to eat out that night, visiting a really lovely Indian restaurant in Salisbury (Anokaa, in Fisherton Street). We decided to leave the car at the hotel and catch a bus into Salisbury, so that we could enjoy a glass of wine as well. We asked the lady at the front desk which bus to take, but she knew nothing about bus times or which bus to take. They had to call the same young guy who had served in the bar, the restaurant & room service to provide information on local buses. What kind of hotel can provide no local information on buses? The next day they could not advise us on the nearest ‘Park and Ride’ for Salisbury; we had to go to the petrol station next door for that information. By this point, we had made a definite decision not to visit/ stay in this hotel again. This is not to mention the lack of air conditioning in the hot weather, or even a fan in the room to move the air around. Looking around, the place looked a little sorry for itself, with not a single real plant or flower inside the building. Any plants in the place were fake. There were no parasols out on the decking area. The flower containers outside were all empty. To be fair, breakfast on our second (and last) morning was much improved, this time it was a buffet style and the lady running it seemed polite and helpful. No delays this time. All in all, such a pity. It could have been so much nicer if their staffing levels were consistent, if they had at least basic information available about local transport and finally, if they had little ‘homely’ touches such as flowers or living plants around the place. You could be forgiven for imagining that staff felt overwhelmed by the size of the task of running the place , and had partly ‘given up.’ Come on Stones Hotel, motivate your team and get the basics of hospitality right!

  Stayed for work close by. Check in was fast and efficient. Got to my room and the heat and musty smell just hit me! The room was... read more clean and well stocked but even with the window open all night it smelt musty and stale. The bed was comfortable and the shower was lovely (gorgeous smelling shower gel provided). I ate in the restaurant and the food was ok (soup was a bit salty). Breakfast the next morning was ok, bacon was delicious but not too keen on the sausages. Check out was again quick and efficient. Was ok for 1 nights stay, but someone should ensure the rooms are aired out (especially in 40 degree heat). More
