Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was delightful. The rooms were clean and comfortable, the staff was helpful, and the location was great. However, the dining experience had room for improvement. The facilities were well-maintained, providing a pleasant overall stay despite some minor issues.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The Henrietta Maria Room at the back of the main building was a bit noisy due to TV noise from adjoining rooms, which made it difficult for my companion to sleep properly. On the bright side, the staff were attentive and friendly upon arrival, but there was a lack of consistency in their social skills. The location was convenient for my family living near Heathrow Airport, but the dining experience left much to be desired with inconsistent service and missing basic items like milk and butter on the tables.
The hotel was a comfortable home away from home with super friendly staff, though there were some issues with noise at 2 am. The location was convenient for walking to town and the tube station, but the construction site nearby was a downside.
I had a lovely stay at the hotel. The room was very homely, just like the nice ones in the pictures on the website and located at the back of the hotel, so it was very quiet. The service was friendly and helpful, although a bit slow at times. The location was perfect for my needs, making it easy to explore the surrounding areas. The dining experience had its ups and downs, with reasonable food but some disappointments. Overall, a pleasant stay with some room for improvement.
The hotel offers beautifully presented rooms that are spacious, clean, comfortable, and fairly quiet. The service was a mix of forgetfulness but also kind and welcoming, showing improvements. The location is great and friendly, only a short distance from various attractions. The dining experience was nice and efficient, even though some items were missing. Overall, a recommended stay with a few minor hiccups.
The hotel offers clean, spacious, and well-decorated rooms with comfortable beds. The service is top-notch, with a friendly staff and efficient management. The location is excellent for various purposes, although some parts may need updating. The dining options are extensive, though quality may vary. Overall, a pleasant stay with good value for money.
