The Godalming Hotel | Hotel in Chilworth

“All good.....although bits not working or falling off!!”

“A bit run down but comfortable and with everything I needed. Parking is a bit tight, would be difficult with a big car, shower didn’t drain well, blinds were broken, TV didn’t work and wifi didn’t reach my room but room and bed linen were clean, very comfortable bed, good hot water. Overall very good value for money given where it is! With a bit of investment it could really be cracking. The building is old and as such it has some beautiful character, including lovely stained glass, but also some narrow stairs. I’d stay again but wouldn’t book a room there for my boss!”

“Idéal for a short stay. Basic, but basic is all I needed. Comfortable bed, Warm shower, Friendly staff, clean, quiet. Perfect.”

“A clean and well appointed hotel. Will be back next year.”

“Finding hotel - Not easy. On main road. Easily missed Check in - No staff. Shouted "hello" a few times. No answer. Knocked on the nearby door a few times, no reply. After a few minutes a girl 4 to 5 years old came out. Soon followed a pleasant lady. Took her a little while to find booking. She handed over the key & went in. Our room on 2nd floor, no lift, narrow stairs beyond 1st floor. Room - size & shower ok, bed comfortable, reasonably quiet, some traffic noise, blind at the window didn't work, had to hang towels to make room dark enough to sleep in. Parking - Hotels.com stated "parking available and free". On the day before I called the contact number provided by hotels.com to find out the number of parking spaces but no answer. No reply to SMS. 3 parking spaces in the front. One already taken by a van. I was lucky to park in one. Later blocked by a van. Rear car park has about 7 spaces but access is dangerously narrow. There are about 25 rooms. The lady who checked us in didn't know if there was any parking available near-by if I took my car out in the evening and didn't find any space on return. From room I called number given by hotels.com to find out WiFi PW & how to enter hotel if door was locked. The man who answered was obnoxious. Asked me who had given me the number in aggressive manner as if I was not supposed to have it. Told me to go down to lady for wi fi PW & disconnected. Subsequent calls went to voice mail. Parking potentially major issue, Not a hotel”

“All was well”

“Plenty of parking and close to shops, rooms are tidy. ”

“I stayed here for 4 nights in April 2026. The double room i had needed a proper clean. The shower had a lot of scum build up around the edges. The towels smell foisty like they've not been washed hot enough (need to be 60 degrees to kill bacteria). I had to go buy my own towel as the second set of towels I got smelled the same which is not good. The double bed for me as a 6ft2 person was too small and had to sleep diagonal to fit due to the wooden frame (divan beds are better for hotels due to this issue for taller guests). The heating turned off at around 7pm and came back on at 6am. The first night I woke up freezing. There was no way to turn the heating on as its central. I had to go out and buy an electric heater for the other nights. The duvet and pillows could do with changing as they are old and duvet is too thin. I will say the bed sheets were clean though. There was black mould on parts of the ceiling and a hole in the door. The door handle was also loose. This place could be better if they paid attention to some of the details and please at a minimum wash the towels better! Ideally get new ones as these coloured ones looked very dated. I think this place used to be well looked after but its been run down a bit which is a shame.”

“As a budget hotel it’s ok for the price, but the decoration needs refreshing & the car park cleared of rubbish & boarders trimmed back - OK for isolated stays but not ongoing stays for professional people.”

“Bedding dated although bed comfy bathroom horrible as stank of sewage made me retch justto go in there so couldnt shower as anything longer the urinatuon would make u sick room was cold heating only cane on intermittenly so woke yp frozen in morning ”
