Very pleasant hotel - would stay again
Pros:

Loved the art deco style decoration- bar was bright and pleasant, room spacious and bed really comfortable. Friendly helpful staff. Air con great in hot weather! Very good evening meal in the restaurant.

Cons:

We stayed in the modern extension. It was absolutely fine for us but you have to check in at main reception and then walk back out through the car park to access the other block. If it had been rainy or we’d had more luggage it would have been good to know in advance so we could check in and then collect our luggage from the car rather than drag it all in. But a very minor point. Excellent stay otherwise

1 night stay
Pros:

Extremely comfortable super king bed , good bathroom , nice towels , very friendly staff and an amazing fish finger sandwich 🥪.

Cons:

Room very warm for me , opening windows was not an option as the room overlooks a noisy courtyard. Breakfast selection was good , cereals-pastries-hot and cold selection of breakfast however the hot plates with food in them were not particularly hot .

Pros:

Very good brekfast and good location

Cons:

I received a different room than I booked, and the air conditioning in the room didn't work. At the end, I learned that I would probably get a parking fine because the lady at the reception didn't tell me right away, but after an hour that I had to write down my vehicle registration at the reception.

Really impressive hotel in Hatfield
Pros:

Really impressed with the hotel. Friendly staff, bar food was great, bedroom was bigger than I expected. Very quiet in the bedroom despite the hotel being by a busy road.

Brilliant staff, good breakfast, ideal location for attending Slam Dunk South!
Pros:

Staff were fantastic. The lady on Reception when we were arrived was so funny, friendly and helpful - the team in the restaurant were great too. Breakfast was a lovely little selection, from hot breakfast (scrambled eggs were very nice, quite rare on a buffet) to a variety of fruits, breads, pastries and cereals. Room was clean and comfortable, varied teas and coffees with biscuits. Location was fantastic as we were attending a festival nearby and it was very close to the train station too.

Cons:

Nothing I could say I didn't like. We just needed a place to stay for a couple of nights whilst in the area, and I will definitely be looking at staying here again when we come back for future festivals!
