Stayed here for a birthday treat. Told hotel at booking it was for a birthday and they said they would note it with the booking. Don't know why because we were not made to feel special, in fact at times they do seem to lack attention to guests.we had been warned they were doing a refurb but even so it... More

I do not write very often, but feel this establishment did not measure up to what I had read. Went with friends who had booked, as had all the other diners so there was no excuse in my opinion for the extremely slow service. After a wild mushroom pasta which was drowned in cream and cheese to the detriment of... More

A warm welcome from the new owner/manager and his team. Nothing was too much trouble. The food was really outstanding...........interesting variations on some of the classic dishes all faultlessly prepared. Our room was extremely spacious and comfortable. I think it is now even better than it was under the old regime. Continued success to the new team....they deserve it ! More

We have just spent a lovely Sunday night at the Museum Inn and we couldn't have been happier. Our room, The Generals, was fabulous. Large four poster, large bathroom, beautifully decorated with 2 balconies overlooking the quaint village of Farnham. The food was amazing too. The staff were friendly and helpful. A great place to stay if you need a... More

Happily we were the only residents on the night we stayed, so we were offered the best room at no extra cost. Having eaten here before, we knew how good the food could be, but I would say that they have improved even further...........it was outstanding. They weren't busy, but it was a Tuesday in January, and the promotion that... More

We stayed at The Museum after a recommendation from a friend and it was wonderful! The food was delicious and was equally as good as our visit to the Chewton Glen the week before. The room was a delight with nice touches such as home made biscuits, high quality bathroom products and an amazingly comfortable bed It is quite pricey... More

So very disappointed the place has no atmosphere. Food was average no wow factor & trying to be top end, why don't these wonderful old places go back to good traditional honest food and leave it to the big boys! The staff were pleasant, barman looked as though everything was hard work, would not return as we have found this... More

I am posting a review because I am so disappointed with our stay at The Museum Inn. In addition we wrote to the Museum inn after our stay and haven't even had an acknowledgement of our issues or a response. We have even sent a follow up e-mail and still no response. Not good enough! Stay 8th October 2011 We... More

I have never posted a review on Trip Advisor before but am compelled to do so as we really disliked this place so much. We stayed at The Museum, whose website makes it out to be a hotel, it is really a restaurant with some rooms attached, as a part of our Summer trip to the west-country. We were looking... More
