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.

Had a 1 night stay as we were going to Harry Potter Studios. Location is great - Just a few mins walk from Watford Junction. Check-in was very quick, room was clean and the sofa bed was made up on our arrival (which isn't always the case). Breakfast in the morning was lovely, warm and fresh. Staff were friendly and approachable, we were given takeaway cups for a coffee togo and my son was given a little bag to pop some fruit in for our journey home. Would definitely stay here again!!

Everything is amazing but it would be perfect if bottled water can be provided too. There are no convenience stores nearby so hard to buy drinks after concert and going back to the hotel.

Decent

The hotel itself was nice, with a small modern breakfast and seating area. The room was rather small and a bit worn, but it was decent. It was generally a decent stay.
