Clean but overpriced, should have included breakfast, wouldn’t revisit
Pros:

The grounds were lovely

Cons:

Room too small especially for the price, rather stuffy as heating was on; poor breakfast time and was surprisingly a buffet

Toll gestaltetes Hotel mit schönen Zimmern
Pros:

Sehr schönes Hotel, ein altes Herrenhaus mit Park drumherum. Schönes Zimmer und alles sehr sauber. Das Hotel selbst war wunderschön innen und außen gestaltet. Wunderbares Essen. Einziger Minuspunkt: Es war wohl zu wenig Personal da, das Essen zog sich lange hin, so dass wir die anderen 2 Tage woanders abends gegessen haben. Beim Frühstück war es ähnlich, alles ein bißchen langsam. Zum Glück hatten wir Zeit :-I
Parken auch kein Problem, großer Parkplatz vorhanden.

If you value rest and relaxation, steer clear!
Pros:

I can not recommend staying here!

I booked this hotel for my partner's birthday, and we encountered so many issues that ruined the stay completely.

Firstly, it is advertised as a dog friendly hotel, but it is not clear on their website that there is a pet charge. We were almost allocated a room that could not accommodate our dog.
The room was not clean. There was half eaten food left in the room and crumbs on the floor.
There was a light in the room that could not be switched off making it difficult to sleep.
The advertised dog walks on their map were not accessible.
The room service in the evening took a very long time.
The room service for breakfast, that we organised with the reception staff, didn't even bother to turn up!

When you book a hotel, the bare minimum you expect is a clean room and a good night's sleep. With the Barnett Hill Hotel you don't get either!

A lovely location but not currently at its best. Needs a refresh.
Pros:

Lovely location, amazing building and helpful staff.

Cons:

It is starting to look like it needs a refresh. Some of the carpets are need replacing, paint work needs attention - just looks like it is lacking care.

Lovely setting
Pros:

I've stayed at this hotel before years ago. I liked the plenty of parking and the gardens and foyers of the hotel are beautiful. The young man checking me in was pleasant and helpful.
My room was v expensive £170 - (no breakfast)it was nice and roomy and the bedding and toiletires were lovely. It was not though in the central hotel. I was disappointed not to get a bath for that money as pictures showed one, and the hairdryer could not be found. Next time I would not spend the extra for a kingsize room. My sat nav suggested the hptel was earlier than it was - so do drive on a bit - roads are very windy.

Disappointing. Hotel service and interiors did not match the website vibe.
Pros:

Outside of property was beautiful

Cons:

Inside of property was tired
No lift
The person there at check in time possibly had a cold but sniffed very loudly every 10 seconds. It was very off putting.
No staff there to greet me at breakfast. Staff generally not engaged. Really odd contrast to the spiel about the amazing service when you call turns hotel.
Light in bathroom couldn’t be switched off.

Very enjoyable and the staff at the hotel couldn't do enough to help...
Pros:

I'm local and stayed with a friend who came down from Milton Keynes to go to a local event. Your staff couldn't have been more helpful. The room was lovely and had everything we needed. Food excellent and as I'm a local person we were given 20% of food and drinks. We'll be back for sure...Thank you..

Cons:

I loved everything....
