They posted that they won't be open for good Friday, wasted my time, as I couldn't risk traveling there, so my journey was abandoned. I certainly hope that they have refunded my money. Please let me know. Thanks

Hi, I dont know where you read that we were not open but we haven't posted that. we were open as every day of the year. We tried contacting you as to when you would be arriving but the number wasn't working. We haven't taken payment for your no show as your card was declined. Perhaps if you had a question about opening times an email or phone call would have answered the question.

The room smelt of mold. We had 2 rooms (1 separate for our son and 1 for my husband and I) and the second night I stayed with family as the smell of the room was making me sick. In our room the wallpaper was peeling off the walls. The shower was a joke. A trickle at best so we had to have a bath.

Super stay, great location. We will be back !
This property is ideal to stay in whilst visiting family. Located in a lovely quiet setting within easy reach of Croxley / Watford by car. Parking is free and plentiful. The staff are fabulous and make you feel so welcome and nothing is too much trouble, the breakfasts are amazing and the bar with its open fires are charming and you can get an evening meal too. We have stayed 3 times in 2023 and will be staying again throughout 2024. Rooms are a little tired but are clean, spacious, warm and are so peaceful. What more can you ask for

Executive room
Staff were friendly and helpful as always. Have stayed In this room on several occasions and being of a certain age had always found the bed very comfortable . This time not so much, feel it could do with replacing? Otherwise food and atmosphere was spot on.

We had a friendly greeting on arrival and the staff were very helpful. The food was very good and the restaurant was cosy and festive. The rooms were comfortable, although one of them rooms was a bit chilly. It was a lovely stay and we would certainly stay again.

Traditional building with good features such as beams and open fires. Hotel area in need of re-decoration and looking tatty. Room clean and comfortable but needed some decorative attention - below television evidence of radiator removal that needed proper decorating. In spite of this would still stay again.

Great pub but the hotel needs a major update
The pub, pub food, staff and location were brilliant. The hotel condition is like something out of my grandmas house though. The beds are lovely and comfortable and warm but the carpets are tired, the masticing in the bathroom is by a blind person and the decor is very tired

Really enjoyed our stay, we had a nice room, the food was excellent. There was a good atmosphere in the bar and restaurant and the staff were friendly. The hotel was in a nice setting overlooking a common and we had a pleasant walk around the village. There was a car park too.

Very disappointed. The hotel room we stayed in is in need of complete updating. Lots of small details which if fixed would make a big difference to the room. For example .The bathroom is very dated and there is black mold marks on the tiling grout and the sealant around the bath and at floor level. The grab rail on the bath needs replacing as a lot of the aluminium has flaked off leaving almost half of it black. The electric towel rail didn't work even though it was switched on. It was loose and broken at one end. The bathroom was freezing as a result of this The wallpaper in the room had been stuck back together in many parts and looked shabby. The carpet by one bedside table looked like it had been eaten by moths and was threadbare in parts. The mattress on the bed was very uncomfortable and dipped in the middle.I also found long black hairs on the pillow and duvet.The lamp shade on one wall light hadn't been attached properly - we had to try and adjust it but there was a part missing. In contrast the bar and restaurant area were lovely as were all the staff who we met - all were very helpful and friendly. I really enjoyed our meal and the ambiance of the bar and the real fire. This was really cozy but the hotel side really lets this lovely place down

What a pleasant change from the "high end" big name hotels. A centuries old inn, with charm , character and a location to die for. The staff were exceptional and possibly the best English breakfast we have ever experienced. The serving team at breakfast were outstanding and starting our days interacting with them just provided the perfect start for the day.

Staff and service excellent and very helpful and cheerful Rooms were a good size. We had a wonderful king bed room adjoining our children’s twin bed room which worked well. Very comfortable beds. Bathroom is in need of a full refurbishment. Some carpets and paintwork in stairway to rooms were tatty. We arrived at 8:20 pm and we were not able to get bar food which was a surprise and inconvenient. Staff helped us find an alternative but it did mean we had to go out again just as we had arrived. This needs to change.

Sorry that the breakfast service was slower than usually. We had a member of team call in sick and then most of the guests all coming down at the same time, it meant we couldn't get to everyone in a timely fashion, We apologise and can assure you that it is not our usual service.

One night stay
Hotel is in a lovely location, perfect for a visit to Warner Bros studio Tour. Food in Resturant was good and reasonably priced, staff were friendly and helpful. Our room was spacious, clean and the bed was comfy. The rooms are dated and the bathroom in particular was really shabby and dated, mould between tiles and very rusty shower/ bath grab rails. The hotel is definately in need of a refurb. Its a real shame as this place could be a real gem.

Away for work
Staying away for work. When I arrived around 3pm road in which premises is located was very busy due to school pick-up. Check in was okay and room was comfortable. My room (105) had a dripping tap, but it did not affect my stay. Food in pub on evening was great (I had the beef pie). I had asked for decaf in my room when I booked and there was plenty in my room

Lovely room nice and warm very clean . Helpful receptionist on arrival . We invited friends for breakfast so there were 9 of us only 2 people had rooms booked and the waitress kept pushing us to check out even though it was only 10.40 . She wasn’t very attentive and had to wait ages before she appeared for more coffees . The full English breakfast was superb . So apart from this woman being a bit pushy to get rid of us the whole stay was really lovely . The bar the night before had a great vibe and was busy but still great service
