    This charming guesthouse is located conveniently close to many attractions, making it a perfect spot to rest after a busy day. The rooms are spacious and well-equipped with everything you may need, including modern bathrooms, air-conditioning, and an impressive Nespresso machine. The service is impeccable, with a friendly and welcoming staff who is ready to assist you with anything. The breakfast is superb, and the garden next to the pool is a sight to behold.

    The location of the rooms at the boundary may lead to some noise from the road, but the charm of the guesthouse more than makes up for it.

    Had a wonderful business trip recently. The breakfast was fabulous, with lots of fresh options and delicious coffee. The staff was incredibly friendly and helpful, providing great tips for the local area. The location was perfect, close to the main road and easy to find. A bonus was the beautiful garden and pool, providing a relaxing atmosphere after a long day.

    There was a water shortage problem during my stay. Although there were no warnings, the staff did request we limit our shower time.

    The hotel offered an excellent pool area that was serene and quiet, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the sunshine. the rooms had a nice privacy aspect that allowed guests to feel comfortable during their stay. The hotel also had all the amenities required, such as air conditioning and Wi-Fi, as well as a delicious breakfast.

    Although the hotels met most expectations, a minor issue was the lack of shampoo and conditioner. it would have been helpful to have more clear directions to the room.

    The ambiance at Albourne Guesthouse is tranquil and the gardens and veranda are reminiscent of a bygone era. The contemporary artwork and well-stocked honesty bar give it an authentic yet modern feel. The staff are extremely friendly and welcoming, making you feel like you're visiting family. The rooms are equipped with a Nespresso machine for coffee enthusiasts.

    Felt spoiled, no reason to complain.
