Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The staff were very friendly and professional during check-in. Breakfast was great. They had a buffet offering a typical English breakfast, cereal, yogurt, fruit, a coffee machine and fruit juice. The location was great (a short walk to Watford Junction station). The room was spacious and clean. There are shops, pubs and restaurants just a 2 or 3 minute walk away. We would definitely stay here again.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The staff (all of them) are exceptional. They are polite, very efficient and extremely friendly. The hotel is very clean, and our room was lovely. This hotel is very close to Watford Junction and The Harry Potter Studios Tour shuttle bus. I’d say between a two to five minute walk. There is a fabulous shopping mall in the town centre, due to the weather we got a taxi both ways and it was only £5-£6 each way depending on the traffic. It’s easily walkable though. We dined in the restaurant in the evening and the food was piping hot and very tasty. I recommend this hotel very highly. Thank you for a perfect stay.

Friendly staff, convenient location, but room uncomfortable as temperature we were told was hotel based and 23.5 degrees at night was too hot. The staff provided a fan but that didn't help much and was noisy. So not the most comfortable stay.
