Better than expected overall.
Pros:

The room had clearly just be refurbished and was in excellent condition. There was a Nespresso coffee machine which was a bonus. All the furnishings were very tasteful. Staff were good and friendly.

Cons:

Our room, number 2 was directly over the bar. This made it pretty noisy but the main problem was that the radio appeared to be on all night!

Pros:

Some young staff who had far more courtesty and understanding than their manager.

Cons:

The stay was spoilt by the first interaction, which is your first impression. The manager who greeted us was totally negative. We had already requested an early check in (And paid for the priveledge) as we were attending a family wedding, only to be told that the early check in meant 2.00pm not 3.0pm. Our wedding was 1.45pm. We were however offered a disabled toilet to get changed in. However we returned at 12.00 and our room miraculousy was ready for us but we did,nt need negativty having just driven 200 miles.

As good as any 5* hotel in the UK
Pros:

As good, if not better than any 5* hotel in the UK. They have recently updated the property and done it exceptionally well.

Cons:

There isn't any parking, however there is a cheap public carpark next door to the hotel, which uses an app on your phone. £10 for 24hrs.

Gem in the heart of the village
Pros:

We went on opening weekend following a refurbishment, the hotel looked amazing. Everything in the room was new and we felt very privileged to be part of the excitement. The location is right in the middle of the village and parking is very close by. Most of all the staff were just wonderful, all of them made us feel at home and were really attentive, they were all very friendly.

Cons:

Everything! Surroundings, bedroom, location, staff and facilities.

Great location in Ampthill
Pros:

Great location, right in the middle of Ampthill. Friendly staff and the meal that we had there was excellent, as was the breakfast the following morning. We had a free upgradge by Booking.com so the room was very spacious and clean.

Cons:

Maybe because it was a Saturday night, the music from the pub downstairs could be heard loudly in our room above, and it was noisy on the street at closing time as our room was at the front.

This hotel is tired, run down, and one ⭐️ at best.
Pros:

This hotel is GRIM. Small uncomfortable bed. Paintwork very chipped and tired. Both th bedroom and bathroom were dirty. TV didn’t work. Staines on the carpet. Staying for a funeral the following day. If we could have left we would have.

A very comfortable, pleasant stay in an outstanding historic building
Pros:

Comfortable, quiet room, although a bit short of furniture (no drawers, only one chair). Excellent service from all staff. Very good breakfasts, and excellent dinner. Convenient free car parking.
