Good Value
I found the Hotel to have very friendly, helpful staff and I thought the room was good value for money.
Mike, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Everything in the hotel took me back to my younger days and set us off a reminiscing about the 1990's. There are some nods to the 21st century but luckily they don't get in the way. The only downside is that the bathroom could have used some black mould remover in places. If you're looking for a class of 1997 reunion venue I would highly recommend this hotel.

Lovely room and great food
Nice room, lovely restaurant food
Simon, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The hotel was a little tired but clean, comfy bed and good shower so key point were catered for. Also a good selection and quality breakfast The hotel desperately needs some illumination outside, it looks closed from the main road and the inroad and carparks are not lit at all, it must loose trade because of this if it wasn't for the satnav I would of passed it several times before seeing it.

8/10 Very good

A very pleasant stay at The Royal Chase Hotel Shaftesbury which was ideal for meeting up with family and friends in the area. All the staff were very obliging and helpful and we made good use of the swimming pool. Many thanks again.
Michael, 3-night trip

4/10 Fair

Room was dated. Woken at 5.40am by refuse truck emptying bins. At 7.30am fresh laundry was delivered to the hotel via fire escape next to my room. The bags were dropped loudly on the floor and against the wall of my room. When I looked outside the door there were approximately 12 large laundry bags piled up each side of my bedroom door. When I asked the cleaning staff later I was told this was the usual practice. I will be requesting a refund from the hotel.
Laundry bags piled outside my room.

We were welcome
Very warm welcome, the swimming-pool and the sauna are an asset, and it is very quiet. The center of the town is about 15 minutes of walk.

The hotel is a little tired around the edges and could do with renovation perhaps, but the staff are polite, the location is great and the pool a welcome distraction!
