Woodlands Park is definitely a 'Character' hotel, lots of leather chairs, original fireplaces and stained glass windows. If you're after a newer style room, then they do have one wing with those, but in the main, do expect your room to be a little bit more 'traditional' in feel than a typical chain hotel. However, it's just lovely. We got the Master Suite at a knockdown rate as we went just after New Year, and it's lovely: A wide, comfortable bed (tho maybe a little bit short for 6ft+ people, it was perfect for us) that helped us have a fantastic couple of nights sleep, tons of space to sit and luxurious sofas to lounge upon. Aircon was perfectly adequate and fairly quiet. The bathroom was spacious and had a bath with a rain-shower over the top; again, a little 'traditional' in style, but clean and with nice big, fluffy towels. Even with it being a quiet time of year, the staff were excellent; attentive, helpful and keen to assist with anything we needed. We only ate Breakfast and Room Service, and found the range and quality of food and drink to be excellent (there was a foobar with a room service breakfast being lost, but they were quick to fix it and get us a lovely spread; also they maybe could put a bar menu in the room so you know what drinks are on offer alongside the food). Grounds could be a bit more ornate (it's really just a fairly spacious lawn; needs a path!), and were a bit muddy when we went for a short walk around, but the view from the room across the Surrey Hills is epic, and the terrace looks like it would be lovely in the summer. Overall, we're likely to be back, especially if there's another occasion where a suite is in the budget!
