About The Market Hotel Alton

The Market Hotel Alton suits visitors who'd rather stay above a lively pub than in an anonymous chain hotel, and families or business travellers alike will find something to work with here. It's a good match for anyone passing through Hampshire who wants character over polish, with a restaurant and bar downstairs and a garden and outdoor seating for warmer days.

Rooms come with vintage-style furnishings and en suite bathrooms, and breakfast is included on a bed-and-breakfast basis. Drinks can be brought straight to the room, packed lunches are available for those heading out for the day, and kids meals are on offer for families. There's also a small function room, making the property a workable option for meetings alongside a leisure stay, backed up by 24-hour reception, concierge services and business facilities.

Alton itself is under a mile away, and Coral Reef Water World is nearby for a change of pace. With a pub, restaurant and other eateries close by too, guests have plenty of options for eating out without needing to travel far from the hotel itself.

I had a party at the Market Hotel, and it was fabulous! The lovely food was served fresh, I chose the finger buffet, but there were other options. There was plenty to go round, and plenty of choice. The DJ was the landlord Stacy, who did a fantastic job of keeping up the atmosphere, mixing in a bit of karaoke alongside some great music. The bar staff were attentive and quick to serve, even as it got very busy in the other bar. The party was held in the dining room side of the bar, which was easily big enough for about 50 guests, although again they do also have an events room connected to the garden terrace if you prefer. Thankyou to everyone involved in making it a fantastic night! Especially Stacy, Martin, Dave, Maddi, Beli and Ryan. Definitely a place to consider for your events.

I love this place. The people are amazing, friendly, knowledgeable, the service is incomparable. Food is amazing and no skimping on portion sizes. Can highly recommend. The manager (I think his name is Dave) was attentive and helpful.

Visited on Saturday 14th March for lunch. What a lovely welcome we received - friendly and helpful service. Great choice on the menu. We had baguette with chips and side salad. Very nicely presented, great taste and great value. We will be back!
