The staff are amazing and really made us feel welcome! The pub is great, with lots of history, good food and great service. The room itself is a bit dated, but clean with a comfortable bed. Love the old town location and 16th century history.

Friendly welcome all staff helpful and good breakfast included in the overnight stay. Our room needed a little bit of TLC as ceiling light broken and ceiling decor looked tired. But the rooms were clean, bed was comfortable, fresh clean towels provided and tea /coffee facilities well stocked. Overall a nice relaxing quiet stay and would be happy to use again

A lovely nights stay.

Lovely 1 night stay as part of a business trip. Staff very friendly, ate evening meal in the pub downstairs - a laminated menu but great tasting pizza! Breakfast included in the price was good size portions. All in all will stay again when next in the area.

The least corporate hotel in Hemel.

A welcome change to the usual chain hotels. Loads of charm, albeit with creaky floors and dodgy plumbing.
