Friendly helpful staff. But the bedroom was insufferably hot (admittedly during heatwave) even with a fan. Breakfast was ok but lacked fresh fruit with only overripe bananas. Dining room window we sat next to was very dirty - cobwebs and dead bugs aplenty. Overall, great staff but otherwise a lot of room for improvement.

This hotel is the closest one to the Alton station. That is the main reason to choose this place. It takes only three minutes to walk from the station platform to the hotel reception. You don’t need to worry whether a taxi is waiting when you get off a train.
