It was in beautiful surroundings and the hotel beautifully refurbished to what I can recall. The staff were really friendly and helpful and I was extremely happy with my air con room. The restaurant evening meal was great also and breakfast good too.

Cons:

There was nothing that I didn’t like. I would gladly have stayed longer.

Good location and friendly staff, but let down by a broken air conditioner, spiders in the room, and a poor night’s slee
Pros:

The location was great, and the staff were friendly

Cons:

I was placed in room 61, where the air conditioning wasn’t working during a hot spell — the fact that a standing fan had already been left in the room suggests staff were aware of the issue. There were also several large spiders on the ceiling, which was unpleasant given my fear of them. Between the heat, the fan noise, and the spiders, I struggled to sleep. Breakfast was also quite basic.

Pros:

Great location for work in Hemel Hempstead, good sized comfortable room, very quiet. And located on a golf course but unfortunately it was too hot for a round at the end of the day, maybe next time.

Cons:

The Air conditioning wasn't working in my room or the part of the building I was in, but fans were provided so it wasn't unbearable.
I ate in the restaurant on the first night, but not a second time.

Amazing staying with a bit of extra heat in the room
Pros:

Size, comfort, romantic vibes, bath, shower and bed were absolutely amazing! It's a really nice hotel for a couple indeed.
Also, the restaurant breakfast was incredible. It was really good.

Cons:

The only problem we experienced in the hotel was that it was very warm in the room and apart from and old fashioned fan, there is nothing to cool it down (we had all possible windows opened), and it took a little while until luckily it got cooler by itself (around 2-3am)
