Rooms are lovely. Really comfy. Room 4 has a generous bathroom with a roll top bath as well as walk in shower. Excellent views over the beer garden and marina too. We enjoyed every meal we had there... Excellent chicken, leek & bacon pies in the bar (25% discount on Wednesday via the Butcombe loyalty app). Breakfasts are tasty too... I particularly enjoyed the Shakshuka. Thumbs up to the excellent range of Butcombe beers too. The staff are friendly, efficient and a true credit to the Mayflower. We were fortunate to have the most wonderful weather during our stay, so it really made for the most perfect break

My only disappointment was the Wifi strength. Its bad to non-existent. No coverage at all in room 4.

Great location, lovely helpful team, room and in particular the beds and pillows were very comfy. Quality and cooking of the food was excellent.

There was nothing we didn't like but the food and drink pricing seems strange. For example if we had been paying for breakfast rather than it being included in our room rate we would have thought it expensive for what you get and there are better value for money options in the town. Equally lunch of a half a turkey Christmas club sandwich, a fish finger roll and a very small portion of chips, a glass of wine and a cider with the auto inclusion of service was £50+ and we felt at least £20 too much. Conversely the trio of meats Sunday Roast was superb and excellent value for money. Can't doubt the quality of produce or the ability of the chef but the pricing strategy seems confused.

We have stayed at the Mayflower a number of times before and this time was no different, the staff are so very helpful and friendly, the location is perfect for us right on the waterside with the town and marina only a short walk away and the room size, comfort and facilities are excellent so as we make at least an annual visit we wouldn’t stay anywhere else if they have availability. Oh and breakfast is freshly prepared and so very tasty. Thank you again

There was nothing we didn’t like

We were really impressed by the mayflower. It’s a pub with rooms above. The tea/coffee was well stocked, lots of fluffy towels, a massive bathroom and they accommodated our toddler without forcing us to book a family room. The view over looked the Quay. Very clean, quite quiet for a pub (although we stayed mid week) and very friendly and helpful staff. Breakfast was also outstanding and included in the price. Free onsite parking. Big pub garden for kids to play in.

We had lunch at the pub too which wasn’t great. The menu quality seemed completely at odds with what we’d had for breakfast (which was amazing) but we might have ordered badly

The location is great and the staff are very dog friendly. The Bromley bathroom toiletries were lovely.

Pillows are very personal but for us they were too hard and synthetic feeling. The room was lovely except for a large bright green fire exit light above the door. Unusual to have such a large bright fire light within the room. We were in Room 1, great view but also above the air extraction unit for the kitchen which was noisy.

Good location with a short walk into the town and right on the harbour perfect for a nice family break. The staff were very friendly and they accommodated our need for a coeliac diet excellently. (Coeliac is an autoimmune condition which means you can’t have gluten, wheat, rye, barley or oats or anything that has been cross contaminated with them) It makes travelling tricky at times but The Mayflower knew exactly what was required and advised they have GF fryers and use GF flour so our coeliac daughter could have fish and chips plus onion rings which is unheard of. Breakfast was a similar story, homemade GF granola, bread and cooked breakfast minus the sausage. Our family room was more like a little apartment, separated rooms and a good sized bathroom.

As a period property the windows are single glazed and leaked in places. It didn’t affect our stay but if you’re a light sleeper and it’s windy which it was it gets quite noisy.

Lovely place to stay, room was amazing for what we needed also included a good breakfast. Short stroll into Lymington town, with good shops. Highly recommend staying here, specifically if your getting the ferry the next day! All staff was very friendly and welcoming too!

Pull out bed's mattress could do with changing as seemed really thin.. And opening hours for a Sunday seemed strange. Food stopped at 6pm and last drink orders at 8:30pm. However we allowed a drink to be charged to the room after this... But apart from that everything was fab!

A warm welcome to both ourselves and our dog, wonderful comfortable room with all the facilities you need especially silly liked the big bath, heaven!

This is not a negative thing just an observation, the room was lovely and large plenty of room just that the main centre lamp shade was rather low and if you are 6 foot tall you tend to bump your head on it every time you walk by

The staff, including check in, breakfast and bar staff, were all friendly and welcoming. The cooked breakfast was pretty good with decent option. The continental options were small but perfectly fine for this price point. The croissants were actually fresh and decent, better than a lot of coffee shops! The room was comfortable. The pub in November wasn't too busy, which suited us because it felt more homely rather than hectic.

Due to the age of the building, ventilation isn't great, which means that there was a lot of condensation on the windows and some mould on the bathroom ceiling. A stronger extractor fan and modern windows might help. The room was otherwise clean.

The location is perfect the room i stayed in was excellent, the breakfast was very good i would highly recommend this hotel for a stay in lymington i think in the summer the location of the hotel is excellent with a nice outside area if visiting lymington again i would not hesitate to book the Mayflower Hotel
