A great discovery ...
Pros:

What a find! Great location close to the centre of Guildford with parking options (paid). Excellent staff - professional yet friendly and welcoming - and high quality accommodation. Squeaky clean. Great bed/linen - quiet room and lots of extra touches making this a real gem (generous selection of quality teas/coffees; water in the fridge) Molton Brown products in the bathroom. Great breakfast selection, even home made jams! Would definitely recommend and use again.

Cons:

Nothing

Nice

Comfy room, air con, filter coffee machine that was daily refilled. Fairly central Guildford location. Staff were helpful. Clean and well presented.

Cons:

£20 per day extra for parking and breakfast, two huge extra hidden costs onto the stay. Expect London prices through the hotel (bar etc).
