La Fleur de Lys was the perfect accommodation for our two-night stay. Its location gave easy access (by a five-minute walk) to the town centre. Our room, and bed, were a good size, and all the facilities were very well maintained; the well-stocked mini-fridge was an unexpected bonus. Food-wise we took only breakfast during our stay, but the quality was excellent; everything was freshly prepared and top quality. All the staff were very friendly and helpful. We can't wait to return!

Road noise was a problem with our room. Next time we visit we'll request one of the quieter rooms at the rear.

Excellent location near Abbey, gold Hill and Main Street. Town very picturesque. Food and service were superb, dinner and breakfast. Proprietors were friendly, professional and flexible. All aspects of the restaurant and housekeeping were first class. On site parking is a bonus: parking is not easy in Shaftesbury.

We visited in summer, and with the windows open, there was a lot of road noise. People booking should make sure they can have a room at the back, overlooking the pretty garden. It is an old building and there is no air conditioning. The bed was rather soft.

A return visit after 5 years did not disappoint - which is a rare treat these days. Well worth the 100 mile detour we made on a rare trip south, specifically to enjoy exceptional cuisine we remembered from 5 years ago and were delighted to find was still as exceptional as we remembered : an imaginative and wide menu, food quality faultless, presentation and service first-class. A warm, well appointed bedroom with thoughtful touches ; courteous and friendly hosts, a rare treasure. If only we did not live 200 miles away...............

Absolutely nothing.

We stayed at this hotel last weekend and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Our room was very clean and comfortable. Tea and coffee was provided in our room with fresh local milk. We booked a table for an evening meal and it was absolutely delicious and of an extremely high standard. The staff are friendly and helpful and we were really impressed with the chef - who is also the proprietor. The breakfast was also delicious and the poached eggs were perfect. The hotel is a 2 minute walk from Shaftesbury town centre and there is a free car park for the hotel visitors. We could not recommend this hotel enough - 10/10 from us

We can’t fault it

The location is central with easy acess parking. The owners and staff were delightful and most welcoming. The owners are on site so it had a very safe feel. The room had a four poster bed with beautiful drapes. We boked in for dinner which was great especially the starters and the venison with blackberries. Really generous portions of fresh vegetables included in the price of the main course.

First time and first stop in UK, per my vacation experience, I would like to say I never, ever had such a fabulous hotel with very friendly, professional owner and employees. I found the hotel on Google Map, and booked with Booking.com, from the pictures you can see, very stylish and nice room, since I was the lasted one booked the room the day, so I got the last room with twin beds only, but it was Okay , just one night. Also with one full dinner and one full breakfast, total was 200.00 US$, don’t forget it is a Michelin starred restaurant. I never wrote any review after my staying any hotel but this one I Must. I’ll recommend this hotel and the town to my friends. Again, Thanks to David ( the owner, also the master Chef ), Max, and the rest of employees in this hotel.

The location was perfect for anyone visiting Shaftesbury and the surrounding area.The hotel is kept in excellent condition and even though its not your modern type of hotel everything is of the highest quality.The wifi was good and the breakfast menu was very varied and the food was of the best quality.We would definitely return again.

Nothing really

Excellent service. Spotlessly clean. Lovely staff. Very good food with generous portions at a very reasonable price, bearing in mind the high quality . Brilliant value wine list.

Car park is tight and small but the proprietor managed issues arising from that very effectively so that it didn’t become a problem for us.

The host was fabulous at the hotel, sparkling clean room and lovely feel to the property. As soon as I arrived I felt at home, super place and would certainly come back should I need to come to see my client again.

Everything was super duper, the only tiny criticism was I was in a double bed on my own and I think it could have had a zip or something in the middle of the mattress so had to sleep on one side. But I have to stress this is a super place to relax and stay.

They had tried to think of everything to make guests comfortable e.g. fresh milk and homemade cookies in bedroom. Dinner was excellent - very tender beef fillet. Staff were very polite and helpful. Loved courtesy almonds and olives with drink before dinner. Excellent location

Nothing really- car park entrance very tight but nothing they can do about this.
