Very nice room and nice staff. The entrance hall when we areived was very dark and there was stairs that you could of easily tripped over on as so dark.

I believe that the hotel should put some padding stickers on the door frames so the doors don’t bang when closing them.

Not a great hot

Hotel was boiling hot, room was very hot and basic, for an executive room. Just a bar of soap in the bathroom, although reception gave me a shower gel when I asked and supplied a fan for the room. Shower was awful would only adjust to boiling hot or freezing cold. Front of house staff were friendly

8/10 Very good

Very pleasant, recently renovated hotel in a quiet location in Dunstable. Rooms were clean and comfortable, bathroom was great. Only downside (for a recent reno) - no USBs in the room. Almost everyone carries a USB rechargeable device these days, and it's remit of hotel not to provide USB ports, and require us to carry an adaptor. Also, my room had no bedside lights whatsoever and no way to turn off the room light from the bed. Currently no food or drink on site. Though there are walkable options.

Upgrade is worth every penny. The walk in shower is incredible and the bed was extremely comfortable

Well managed family party

Fantastic sevice from Alex, who arranged our family dinner in a private room and was super helpful, and reception were also friendly. Breakfast was a bit of a shambles with staff who couldn't cope and werent professional, but overall a good stay - the food was excellent quality and value. Walled garden is pretty and the old part of the hotel is nice - the new parts lack any sort of character, but are comfortable enough.

It’s clean and the room was in good shape. Front desk person was nice helpful. That said, it looks like a lot of the rooms are longer-term rentals. There were several children playing in the parking lot and running around in the lobby area. I also saw toys in some of the ground floor windows, indicating that people were living there. While the room we stayed in looked recently updated, the lobby is pretty rundown. And the restaurant and lounge are closed (with refrigerators and microwaves in what I assume was previously the dining room—probably for the tenants). It’s too bad because it looked like it was a really cool hotel/tavern/restaurant at a previous point in the past. Not planning on ever being back in this area, but I wouldn’t stay here again.

Someone walked in my room whilst I was asleep when I shouted they walked out left the light on kids we’re running around the corridor all the time making loads of noise and when I checked out early they didn’t even care the staff

4* only if you’re scoring out of 50!!!

Arrived to a beautiful setting. However, room 1 had dirty sheets (blood found on duvet). No towels. 1 worn pillow each. Room badly dated. Moved to a family room. Again, 1 pillow each. Hand towels only. 3rd floor, lift broken. Honestly a poor place to stay. Apart from a comfortable bed this place is awful!
Dated rooms
Blood on sheets
Crumpled sheets and pillow cases

Average

Wedding was going on when checked in . Went out came back to our room at 9 loud disco directly below our room. Would have been impossible to sleep . Called reception who moved us to a new upgraded room at the back of the hotel and floor above and no noise. At breakfast discovered numerous wedding guests had stayed so surely all rooms on the first floor need to be assigned to weeding guests. Also at breakfast huge tables for wedding party meaning felt no room and unwelcome if a wedding is on they need a separate breakfast room . And the wedding party need there own bar and area otherwise you are walking around wedding guests . If not a wedding on be great place to stay if a wedding on would avoid.

No go area

Parking was easy, the place needs a lot of renovesion ,the carpets are outdated, no toilet brush, small shower gel, no airconditiob, just fan, breakfast was a no no so i didn't have breakfast.

Building and gardens were lovely. However, our room was absolutely boiling hot and when staying with an infant, made us very uncomfortable. There was no fan provided, the windows barely opened and to cool my son down, we had to put his travel cot into a bathroom. The lifts were out of use and no ground floor rooms were available, despite us making it clear we had an infant on the booking and would need a pram. The corridors were very narrow and when making our way to our room, it was very difficult with an infant, all the bags and other people having to all use one staircase. My partner was certain he saw breakfast included in the price, but no mention at the hotel either.

Much better this time.

Stayed in a refurbished room: large and quiet.

Hotel was fine but the hotel is house immigrant families and they was shouting all night, so when I have to get up early for work and get very little sleep becomes a problem.

A bit run down and shabby. Could do with a revamp.

Fallen glory

Don’t believe the website pictures, these were taken years ago. You can see this hotel was once a 4 star hotel, beautiful building and lovely period wood paneling in the reception. Sadly, the hotel now has a a lot of permanent residents, family in the common areas and toys lying around. The restaurant is closed and now and temporary kitchen, the place is dark and dingy, with smell of food and damp in the air. Having said that, we stayed in one of the newly renovated rooms, which was very nice and well appointed but it felt like walking through Pandoras closet!
