10/10 Exceptional

A really comfortable stay. Nice decor, themed around the River Test, with historical touches in a modern, clean setting. Loads of very easy (free) parking. About 10 minutes walk into the centre of Romsey. The hotel is just off a fairly busy road, but with double/triple glazing it isn't too bad, and they provide complementary earplugs should you need. Comfy beds, nice staff and excellent breakfast. Highly recommended

This was our third stay at the Cromwell Arms and parking and check in were both quick and easy. Our room, Green Drake, is smart and spacious and has a very nice en suite. Unfortunately it has the disadvantage of being on the ground floor, right at the front, and whereas I don’t particularly mind the noise of the passing traffic (and they provide ear plugs!) I find the fact that pedestrians walk past the window quite disconcerting, and having to pull the blinds down the minute you get into the room isn’t really ideal. In three visits to this hotel we have been given this room twice, so I must make a point of rejecting it the next time we book. Breakfast was very nice, with a good selection of fresh fruit, cereals etc; and our cooked options were all very good as well, with quality ingredients perfectly cooked and nicely presented. The bottom line is that this is a very good hotel in an ideal location close to the river and the town centre.
