    great food
    really good cleanliness

    The room was cozy with a lovely atmosphere, and we enjoyed the great food quality. Really good cleanliness of the bar made our experience even better. Plus, they had a surprise kids coloring activity that kept little ones entertained for a bit. Definitely will be back!

    cleanliness

    fantastic location with free parking right by the hotel. our room was well cleaned, and the bed was super comfy. the staff were all really friendly, especially becky at reception and the lovely lady who served us dinner. breakfast had loads of choices, which was nice. great value for the price we paid.

    the heating in our room was not working properly, and we had to ask for a fan heater. there were marks on the walls that seemed like they needed fixing.

    spacious family room
    free parking
    limited play options

    We loved our spacious family room and the warm, inviting setting. The free parking was a bonus, and we enjoyed strolling around the charming village nearby, even with our dog tagging along.

    My kids wished for a few more play options at the hotel.

    charming decor
    good parking
    high noise

    Solid parking facilities at the back, allowing easy access even when busy. The historical décor adds a bit of charm to the setting, making the atmosphere cozy and inviting.

    High noise levels really took away from the experience. The soundproofing in the rooms left much to be desired, leading to disturbances from conversations and activities in adjacent areas. Another downside is the lack of a lift, which made hauling luggage up multiple flights a hassle. Finding the way from the car park to the reception was a bit convoluted, requiring an unplanned detour through the restaurant, which felt awkward. Access to certain rooms involves navigating many steps and doors, not ideal if you're not traveling light. Lastly, breakfast left something to be desired as it gradually ran out of essentials like milk and coffee during busy mornings, requiring guests to ask multiple times.

    Recommend for an overnight stopping

    Comfortable room, convenient location, the double room was cozy with a flat-screen TV to enjoy while unwinding after a day of visiting family, and complimentary Wi-Fi that made planning our next day easy.

    Couldn't have been better.

    helpful staff
    good location

    the room was big and clean, and the staff were super friendly overall. breakfast was decent, with good hot options served at the table. the location is great, right in the middle of town. they have parking at the back which is a nice plus. moving us to a better room after the first one was a good move.

    The décor exudes charm with a delightful blend of classic and modern touches, making it a cozy home away from home. Accessibility is thoughtful, ensuring ease for senior guests while wandering through the inviting spaces.

    More seating options for relaxation would be appreciated.

    Comfortable Stay with Room for Improvement

    My stay was enjoyable, especially due to the friendly staff. Room cleanliness was evident, but it lacked ventilation, making it quite warm. The rustic bar's atmosphere was delightful for dinner, though the service could be more attentive. Consider requesting a fan if you're sensitive to heat.

    great central spot for parks and landmarks in alton

    I loved how close this place was to the Curtis Museum, which was just a few steps away, and it was perfect for a pleasant stroll to the beautiful Flood Meadows, where I could unwind in the greenery after a day exploring. overall, it was a delightful experience with a super comfortable single room that made my stay even better, reflecting my preference for relaxation after city walks.
