Marwell Hotel details:
Marwell Hotel offers the warmest of welcomes combined with a convenient location. A colonial-style, safari lodge, opposite Marwell Zoological Park. Ideal for touring Winchester and New Forest.
A meal at The Zavannah Restaurant is the highlight of any stay at the Marwell and its traditional and international menu attracts lovers of fine food and wines from around the world. Look out for the menu of the day, planned according to the availability of fresh local ingredients, with an added dash of Chefs imagination to whet your appetite. The complementary wine list includes all the traditional European bottles as well as some exciting New World choices, but if you can't decide, our Restaurant Manager will be delighted to advise you. If a bar snack or light meal is all you require, then the Zanzibar offers an interesting selection. Bon appetit! A good days work follows a good nights sleep and here at the Marwell Hotel, our bedrooms have been designed with your comfort in mind. The airy, glass and timber walkway, an image reinforced by the sightings of animals in the adjacent zoological park. The colonial influence is apparent too in the cane bedroom furniture, but thankfully mosquito nets are not required.

We stayed at the marwell Hotel, to celebrate our 1st wedding anniversary. We wanted it to be perfect. It was. The room was very comfortable, and decorated with an african flavour. A huge king size bed and outside set in a woodland surroundings.
We had dinner in the Hotel restaurant, (Zav vana) and the meal and service were faultless and we feel fantastic value for money.
Overall, the hotel with it's staff made our stay a fantastic one, and we will be recommending it to anyone who asks.

I have stayed in the Marwell Hotel for the past 3 years running, always at the start of May. Each time our visit has coincided with a wedding function and this seems to cause resource problems at the hotel.
At ?149 for a family of 4 the rate is attractive and the situation of the hotel, directly next to Marwell Zoo, makes it a good place to stay.
I must say that the way the hotel is managed seems to have declined over the past 3 years as we had to wait for over 5 minutes when we first arrived in reception before we were able to flag a member of staff down and get their attention.
The room was extremely hot, even with the heating off, and we could hear lots of other guests complaining about how hot the rooms were.
Breakfast was a complete joke - there was a very long line of guests waiting for breakfast and although the staff were rushing about aimlessly nobody was getting any milk, toast, or any of the cooked breakfast in a hurry!
On checkout I noticed that they had charged for items I hadn't received and generally came away with the impression that the whole place isn't managed very well.
