 Date of Stay: April, 2007
 The place is a bit tired. A bit dirty in the corners.
 
2. From: D HART
 Date of Stay: March, 2007
 My partner and myself stayed at the Durley Dean hotel and thoroughly enjoyed it. On our first night we noticed the radiator in our room was not working, so in the morning we reported it. The hotel were unable to repair it immediately so installed a freestanding heater which was more than sufficient. There were quite a few functions going on at the hotel, but this did not interfere with or spoil our enjoyment in any way at all. Overall a very pleasant relaxing weekend, which was our aim.

 Date of Stay: February, 2007
 Generally in need of a refit but the hotel is clean and the staff are very friendly. The indoor pool and sports facility make up the value. Not sure if I would want to pay non discounted rate though.

 This was booked for Valentine's day and was a complete disaster!! The service in the restaurant was terrible - BOTH meals were sent back twice.
 
7. From: Reviewer has requested to be kept anonymous.
 Date of Stay: December, 2006
 Overall the hotel was very pleasant with ample facilities. Our room (the double room) was fine, the only downside was that the bed was the squeakiest noisest bed ever! Every time we turned it woke us up. I think the bed in this room needs replacing as it seems very worn out, as is the duvet cover. Otherwise both rooms were good.
