    "Room smelt like a greasy spoon cafe"
    Disappointing stay! I was looking forward to my first stay in a premier inn hotel but the whole experience was underwhelming and it’s only redeeming feature was the staff who remained pleasant and helpful despite the pressures they were being put under. Automatic check in was broken, no reception staff immediately available, keys not working, broken coffee machines, ripped curtains in our room, dirty towels… but the worst part was how disgusting our room smelt. It smelt like a greasy spoon cafe and it didn’t get any better the whole time we were there. It literally felt like the kitchens extractors were directed straight into our rooms. The parking was also a terrible experience but that we cannot blame on the hotel. Just make sure you understand where you can park as it is extremely confusing.
    "Not worth the price"
    This hotel is incredibly expensive for what you get, if you are staying to be close to London then I would recommend just staying in London instead as you are pretty much paying the same prices. I did not think this hotel had been standing very long but the rooms were incredibly dated and poor quality. Very little air circulation, no opening windows, our shower curtain was dirty, screws loose and the whole socket came out when I unplugged my phone. The hotel is quiet, we were first floor but heard nothing the entire stay, staff were also nice, but we struggled to find anyone when checking in, and it took a while before someone came to us, even when ringing the bell. The biggest issue was parking, I ended up having to continually swap between car parks as the one directly outside has a maximum of four hours with no return within 2. The longer stay is further away and made me a bit anxious being so out of sight from my car. Permits would be a good idea, I ended up paying an extra £30 on parking over three days.
    "Recommend for Hitchin and surrounding areas"
    Had a great stay here. The room was lovely and clean and the staff were friendly and helpful, especially Keelan and Claire. Super breakfast and a good central location. Would definitely stay again.
    "Great Stay!"
    Wow.- what a fantastic hotel! We booked one night here, as we were attending a wedding nearby the following day. We had a great stay, and it was definitely the best Premier Inn we have stayed in. We were given a warm welcome and our room was clean, modern and bright. It was also spotlessly clean and the bed linen and towels were very fresh. We all slept well and our room was very quiet despite overlooking the front of the hotel. Breakfast was great and the staff were very friendly. Such good value for money. Would definitely recommend.
    "Basic for a premier inn"
    Stayed here for mine and my husband's first anniversary, stayed in premier inns before so was expecting the same standard. The room was ok, just needs to be updated or freshened up as the ceiling had a big crack the paint was flaking and mould in the bathroom above the shower.
