1-night trip

10/10

Had a 1 night stay as we were going to Harry Potter Studios. Location is great - Just a few mins walk from Watford Junction. Check-in was very quick, room was clean and the sofa bed was made up on our arrival (which isn't always the case). Breakfast in the morning was lovely, warm and fresh. Staff were friendly and approachable, we were given takeaway cups for a coffee togo and my son was given a little bag to pop some fruit in for our journey home. Would definitely stay here again!!

The hotel itself was nice, with a small modern breakfast and seating area. The room was rather small and a bit worn, but it was decent. It was generally a decent stay.

Everything is amazing but it would be perfect if bottled water can be provided too. There are no convenience stores nearby so hard to buy drinks after concert and going back to the hotel.

The hotel was perfect for visiting Harry Potter Studio tour. Great location for what we needed. Rooms were clean and well maintained. The staff were friendly and helpful. The breakfast was well prepared, good quality produce with enough choice, there was something for everyone.
3-night trip

10/10

Very comfortable had a twin accessable room plenty of floor space to suit any disability. Large wet room fitted with all the hand rails etc. One of our main reasons for staying is the location close to rail service for our trips into central London. Good quality food at breakfast and a menu selection in the evening. Would recommend to family and friends.
2-night trip

6/10

The hotel itself was excellent, unfortunately the room was like a sauna, the air conditioning didn't work. When i spoke to reception I was advised the air con was centralised which didn't sound right, because the hotel itself was very cool. After complaining a second time the receptionist came to the hotel and confirmed the room was like a sauna, his solution was an extra fan which just blew warm air. Shocking service and clearly advertising rooms as air conditioned is not quite right, as its apparently centralised access the hotel... They never offered a solution apology or refund
