Lovely hotel staff made our stay very enjoyable. |Sadly sleep quality not great due to noisy neighbours banging doors and the walls do not keep out noise, although the bed was very comfortable. …

What an absolute gem of a place! A family run hotel managed by people that really care about the reputation they have worked so hard to build.  …

Very warm welcome from all staff. Room was cosy. Would benefit from better fitted curtains, they didn’t come together enough to keep the sun out. And perhaps a little longer. But apart from that it was lovely. …

We stayed here midweek whilst on a wine tasting/vinyard experience at nearby Chapel Down. The rooms are very clean and of a good size. Nice garden at the rear and large car park too. …

Stayed here as part of a wedding party.For the wedding the ceremony, the dinner and disco took place in the same room with staff changing everything to make it appropriate for the next leg of the service.Staff were very accommodating and friendly going above and beyond to help out.Rooms were nice and clean, bathroom had a shower only but water was nice and hot. As the building is old some of the floorboards are a bit creaky and you might hear next door from time to time. This is not often or loud enough to be a problem.

Our trip was a birthday gift. I extended our booking to two nights a paid extra for a better room. We were in room 3 overlooking the garden. A very pleasant room with an updated shower room. …

We purchased a Virgin experience voucher for a weekend hen do with Chapel Down Winery and a one night stay at Little Silver hotel included. Trying to navigate a hen do of 17 people was quite the challenge, but Little Silver went above and beyond to assist us. Numerous emails back and forth, arrangement of transportation, several dietary requirements and numerous requests, Little Silver did not disappoint. The hotel was clean, spacious and eccentric. Diane went above and beyond to make sure everything was organised and our dinner and breakfast was a success. Thank you to the Little Silver staff for a great stay albeit short!

The rooms could really do with updating, they smelt quite ‘old’ and only had one thin pillow each. Shower was so weak we didn’t bother using it and beds were uncomfortable. At breakfast the staff were too busy, one staff member knocked an entire hot cup of coffee all over me and ruined my outfit, they didn’t do anything to make up for it.
