The Eastbury & Spa

Tranquill with an elegant look combined with staff who are so helpful and welcoming. In the room a little more attention to the small details of 'decoration tiredness' would have elevated our experience further, but the ambience of the room made up for this. The Spa and Sauna/Jacuzzi /Hot Tub were amazing. We enjoyed the fact that it was for our sole use. In my experience ' First Impressions ' will always be remembered and talked about.

What a gem this hotel is! We stayed in their beautiful cottage that was very well equipped - a real home from home including a lovely welcome basket. It's always difficult to find accommodation for our annual trip of 3 couples and this worked perfectly. With 3 double bedrooms, large kitchen, dining room, sitting room and beautiful garden, we had plenty of space for all 6 of us. Just a point to note that although the attic bedroom is large with an ensuite, it is a steep climb! A perfect location for a few nights away with friends.

Comfortable and characterful room and hotel, with very nice breakfast and helpful staff. However, I didn't like being asked to pay a service charge on top of the bed and breakfast room rate. I also didn't like being sent so many automatically generated emails, prior to our stay.

Amazing stay staff really kind Breakfast fantastic I saw that a previous entry said it was not a 5 star I agree it is easily a 6 star Garden room was amazing and spa treatments very good gardens are really good too feels like you are in the country

We were in the anemia rol. Which was lovely. It had a lovely long corridor and off it was a separate toilet then a huge bathroom with huge bath, shower and due basins. It had a espresso machine plus kettle. The breakfast was cooked to order and very good.

Not a 5 star hotel. Horrible musty smell in the corridor leading to my room. Smell was not any better in my room. No staff after 9pm A single bed only. No food served except for breakfast…remote control was not working, had to asked hotel staff to change batteries decided to leave the hotel within 10minutes . I’ve booked myself in a different hotel

We had high hopes for the Eastbury but unfortunately were somewhat disappointed. Firstly, the location is fantastic, just a short walk to the beautiful town centre. On arrival we were shown to what I can only describe as an attic room, up some very old narrow stairs, with a musty smell. I appreciate this is an old building but how one would get out in a fire is anyone’s guess. The room was tired, dark, dusty, and thoroughly depressing. The end wall of the roof was painted a miserable ‘heavy smoker’ tobacco like colour. The bathroom, which like the gents toilets clearly had not been ‘completely renovated’ as the notice in the reception area states, in 2018, had probably last been looked at in the 1980’s. The light over the sink didn’t work, the awful noisy Mira shower struggled to deliver a shower due to thick limescale on the head, and there was no extractor fan. We spent as little time in the room as possible, preferring instead to walk the streets of Sherborne. The morning breakfast staff were attentive, the breakfast though was nothing special. A 5 star place this definitely isn’t. On checking out I had my feedback to give had anyone been bothered to listen. The woman on reception took my key, gave me my bill and we left. No ‘did you have a nice stay?’ or anything. We won’t be back and I’d urge others to spend their money elsewhere.

I was fortunate enough to win an overnight stay for two in a luxury double room with Dorset breakfast at The Eastbury Hotel & Spa. We stayed at the Hotel last week and couldn't believe that we had been booked into the luxury four poster suite complete with our own spa bath and a private walled courtyard. The staff were all very friendly and couldn't do enough for you. It's certainly the best Hotel we have stayed in, and hope to return very soon.

Lovely rooms, with everything you need. Staff are very friendly and attentive. The breakfast was delicious with lots of choice. Within easy reach of great eateries. Good walking round the area and plenty of things to do, or nice to relax in the lovely gardens.
