Thank you for your review. We have almost finished refurbishing the bedrooms, we have just over 10 more to do which will be finished by end of March 2023. Corridors, function space and reception have already been completed. Plan next is to move to the bar and to finish the restaurant. Hopefully we will see you again in the future so you can see the improvements being made.

Sadly due to my wife being ill we were not able to stay. As the booking was non refundable we decided we check out the hotel for future reference and very glad we did. The staff were friendly and helpful, the rooms were great. The hole place was just so relaxing. We will definitely book again in the future.

Not Good
The place was very tired and not very clean. The food in the restaurant was not good and the service was poor. The staff were very nice but lacked training. They were more interested in keeping their regulars happy in the bar than making sure the few guests in the restaurant were attended too.

Our apologies for the fire alarm going off during your stay. Obviously this isn't our usual standard. A guest was smoking in a room and set off a sensor. The alarm system then automatically shuts off the gas to the boilers. I'm so sorry, this obviously isn't our normal standard. We have signs in all the rooms stating it's a none smoking hotel but these are often ignored.

There was no hot water, so showering was a nightmare. Fire alarm went off for no reason in the middle of the night, which also was horrible

Our sincere apologies for the issues that you experienced on your recent stay. Obviously this is not our usual standard of service. I'm afraid that a guest smoked in one of the bedrooms which triggered the sensor. That then turned off the gas to the boilers. I'm so sorry. We have signs in every bedroom informing guests there will be a 100 fine if they smoke but it doesn't always deter people.

Poor check in, no hot water moved to another room, not 2 singles as requested, very small room, no towels in bathroom. Fire alarm went off in early hours, no staff, gathered outside in street, still no staff. Eventually a member of staff appeared thought someone was smoking. Allowed back in building. Poor breakfast, cold food. Coffee machine not working. Never stay again. Very poor.

Thank you for your review. Our apologies for the fire alarm sounding during your stay. As the staff mentioned a guest smoked in a room which set the alarm off. During the night when limited staff are working the fire procedure is to check the sensor that has been triggered to ensure there is no fire. Hopefully they were able to let you back in as soon as possible.

This property has a family sentiment attached to it for us, this is why we choose The Ship Inn, Weybridge.

Fantastic value and a great Hotel with tremendous professional staff… Stayed many times over the years and a regular visitor living relatively locally. My last 4 day stay however was ruined by a new manager that was insulting,rude, and insisted taking items to my partners room whilst not invited or welcomed!!! Beware as whilst I was at work he took it upon himself to make silly excuses to visit her room… When asked why he simply said it was his job!!!!

Thank you for your review. I'm sorry to hear that you won't be staying with us again. We are working our way around the hotel refurbishing different areas. The corridors have all been carpeted and painted, the reception area has new furniture and has been redecorated. We are half way through the restaurant, we still have a bookcase to build and some wallpaper to go up but had to move to the function room which has been repainted. The bar and conservatory will be done next year as well as more of the 2nd floor rooms. I'm sorry progress is slow. We have been working on it since reopening after lockdown. Hopefully we will see you again.

We picked this hotel for sentimental reasons (we'd lived in Weybridge 40 years ago) and we didn't expect it to be as nice as it was. The room was spacious and very clean, and the location is excellent because it's adjacent to downtown Weybridge and a short walk to the Thames tow path. My reservation receipt said we were getting a double bed, so I was pleasantly surprised to find a King. The outlets and charging stations were well located by the bed, and there was plenty of lighting. The courtyard was a lovely place to play card. I would definitely stay here again if I return to Weybridge.

Great location and service
Excellent location and good value. The room we have was a standard double and was essentially a standard double hotel room. Clean and modern, TV, kettle with tea coffee and biscuits. The bed was excellent and one of the best I’ve slept in. The room was very hot but there was a fan to help. There is a good size and attractive outside courtyard to sit, a bar with planting of seating and a dining room. The hotel also has a few reception rooms for hire. This is our second stay, the first time there was a wedding reception so the hotel is good enough a venue to hold these type of events. The noise from the wedding guests could not be heard from our room so wasn’t an issue. There is onsite parking although the spaces are a bit of a squeeze. No complaints and would stay again.

Disappointing Stay!
I stayed in room 102 which firstly no fans were available and was an extremely warm room being that the extractor fans from the kitchens blow air directly into the room door. In the morning I opened the bathroom door to find water flooding down from upstairs through the extractor fan. After mopping up most of the water and using a bin to stop the room flooding I quickly got dressed so I could go alert reception, I went to brush my teeth and to my surprise got an almighty electric shock from the tap. On arrival at reception I told the lady what had happened her response was “oh really” no are you ok or how can I put this right or any genuine care was shown, I mean this is just basic customer service! Not a great stay when you have to get ready for the day in the toilet!

A good night's sleep
Comfortable twin room, with good facilities. Fairly modern room and bathroom, plenty of local amentities and good location. Easy check in and out, but be aware of the fairly tight car park (although plenty of spaces and is secure) and the split levelling of the building. The courtyard area was a nice space to sit and relax away from our room.

We'd stay here again
Our room was comfortable and had a peaceful feel to it. The bed was more comfortable that we usually find - not too hard, not too saggy. I usually take along a memory foam mattress topper as I suffer from ME and fibromyalgia, which makes it hard for me to sleep in most hotel beds which are usually as hard as the proverbial rock. I might have even managed to sleep okay on this had I forgotten my own topper. My husband found it very comfy. We would stay here again.
