Good location, dated inn
Pros:

The location is great and the courtyard is a plus. Also the bed was huge and very firm but comfortable. The menu was good too.

Cons:

The rooms are dated and not particularly clean, especially the bathroom was just filthy and in need of updating.

Adequate, probably won’t stay again
Pros:

The room was spacious and the bed was comfortable especially the pillows

Cons:

Had a considerable wait at the bar to be served drinks. The money was taken quickly but the drinks then took a while to be served. Had to go and eat elsewhere in Woburn as we couldn’t get a table in the restaurant and at breakfast the bacon and beans were luke warm. Considering the money charged, I expected better.

Convenient central location & value for money
Pros:

Brilliant central location & attentive reception & bar staff. Comfortable bed.

Cons:

We hadn’t booked b&b but chose to eat at the hotel the first morning. We were seated in the less cosy dining area near the kitchen when there were tables elsewhere & promptly told we were not to use the buffet breakfast bar but only had choice from the menu. The food was only adequate & a granola dish was served alongside a sandwich - would’ve been nice to have first as the sandwich became cold.
We stayed two nights & were asked to sort our ‘tab’ for the first night & start a new one the next day. It wasn’t an issue, but we’ve never been asked to do this before!
The bedroom was cold on arrival & the tea tray wasn’t the cleanest.

Disappointing stay
Pros:

It’s in a great part of the town . Vert good parking as well . The hotel public areas and the restaurant / bar areas are smart and stylish

The restaurant staff were very helpful .

Cons:

The bedroom felt a bit tired . Bathroom & shower areas as well could do with a refurbish
We did arrive quite late to be met by a member of the restaurant team who was clearly too over stretched to be pleasant and helpful .

The restaurant menu was very limited and felt more like very average pub grub than restaurant standard . Poor pizza and average aubergine burger with skinny chips .

Would not choose this hotel again .
