Another excellent stay at The Duke on the Test in Romsey. The staff, the service, the rooms, the cleanliness all excellent. The staff are very friendly and can't do enough for you. It won't be long before we are booking in again! Highly recommended.
Despite being adjacent to a main road, the pub and accommodation were delightfully tranquil. The beverage options at the bar were more than adequate and the dinner was terrific, both the food and the service. Having access to a walking path alongside the River Test and an associated wildlife area was the cherry on top of the cream on top of a most exquisite cake!
Absolutely lovely! We enjoyed our two night stay at the Duke on the Test! The room was immaculate! I saw staff cleaning another room and from what I can see, they go above and beyond in how they clean each room! We ate three meals at the pub and the food was delicious. The staff were very helpful. Overall, we had an amazing time and we hope to return again one day!
We had a wonderful stay. The staff were friendly, the room was clean and tidy. The bar and food was exceptional. Highly recommend to anyone looking to stay
I have enjoyed six visits to the Duke on the Test - four for meals and two for stays of several days. The staff have aways been friendly and helpful, the rooms have been excellent and the food awesome. So why have I given one star for service? Just before checking out today, a staff person whom I believe is the manager came in early to service the room. Her first words were "it is very hot in here" and proceeded to criticise me several times for having the radiators, asking me to turn them off then proceeded to turn off the one in the bathroom. We are senior citizens and feel the cold. I pointed out that the heat had only come on at 7:15am. She insisted the heat was on 24 hours. I corrected her and said the radiators in the bathroom and room had come on each day at 7:15am. The day time temperature the day before had been 15 degrees and the room was cold when I had taken my shower each morning. In 50 years of staying in many hotels internationally, I have never felt so humiliated as I felt this morning. Until that moment I would have given to hotel a 5 star for everything. Until I receive an apology I cannot recommend the hotel and will not be visiting again.
A lovely place to visit - be it for lunch or dinner or an overnighter. Very friendly and effivient staff who were attentive without being overly so. A fine menu with an array of dishes experly cooked. My room was sldi clean comfortable and well organised.
We were very impressed with The Duke on the Test. The food was excellent and the accommodation was also excellent. Canât fault it will definitely stay again and recommend it to our friends
This is a beautiful 16th century pub and rooms. The staff are very friendly and cant do enough for you. Our stay was excellent and we will definitely stay here again. Highly recommended.
Well located for Romsey and surrounding area. Clean and comfortable room which also had a patio area which was nice. Large restaurant area with indoor and outdoor options though a shame it didn't open a little later on Sunday.
