Madingley Hall has the wow factor. It’s such a beautiful building and grounds. Inside, rooms are repurposed student rooms (I assume) and are basic, but a good night’s sleep was had. Breakfast buffet was great. It’s not 5 star but for the price paid and the wonderful surroundings it’s a great place to stay.

Delightful, shame about the breakfast

Madingley Hall is a delightful if somewhat twisty-corridored place to navigate. Everything was as you would expect except for the disappointing breakfast, which had a satisfactory range of Continental or full English options but the cooked breakfast was lukewarm at 9, a time when most of the conference delegates had already finished and left for their programmes.

Great choice of hotel

Excellent last-minute overnight stay. Lovely room in a magnificent, quiet setting and very good value. Beautiful gardens for a walk after dinner. Great breakfast before departure, just a shame we couldn't stay longer!

We didn’t stay in the end. Madingley notified us on the morning we were in a double twin room. We booked a superior double with king sized bed I tried e mailing, telephoning and even tried Expedia but not one person made contact until 3.03pm. We had by then booked other accommodation, we had no choice. A week later Madingley are being uncooperative over a refund Very very disappointing, they have apologised but kept my money Madingley are clearly not to be trusted when booking, if they do this to us then they are disrespectful of their customers
