I booked a superior room which was OK...nicle flat screen tV which had freeview channels. It was a large room which has recently been painted, but the fittings such lights and tables were worn. I have stayed in the executive rooms in the past which are faultless. Never had breakfast as i use the McDonlads just up the road. More

Stayed 2 days and needed to be outside London. Staff were efficient and friendly, Hotel was better than basic but not luxurious but the price was very reasonable. Hemel Hempstead train station is less than 10 minutes away and you can reach London from the Hotel in under 40 minutes More

Asked receptionist which of the two pubs across the road from the hotel was best for food, she was English so presumably local, but was unaware there were actually two pubs even though they could be clearly seen from reception! Had to return to reception to get room swipe reprogrammed. Rooms are located in blocks around the site, are not... More

We arrived at the Watermill and were met by friendly helpful staff. The foyer and bar areas were well lit, clean and tidy. However, whilst the rooms were also clean, bright and tidy, the corridors in the accomodation blocks (it does sound a bit like colditz doesnt it?) were very dark, bare brickwork and the carpets were very dark and...

Boxing Day 2011 was our third short stay at this hotel and as on previous occasions we were well received, the room was well appointed and clean and breakfast was a pleasure. The price was competitive and there is plenty of car parking space. Although situated in a village, the hotel is well placed for anyone wishing to explore the... More

When we pulled up to the hotel, we were a bit wary as the front looks a bit grim. On the left hand side there was what we descibed to each other as a 'Pontins' like frontage. Wooden doors leading onto a railed long balcony which had a climbing plant running over it. It didn't help that there were no... More
