The room was clean. Spacious enough, Nice amenities. Decent restaurant downstairs. If you order fried eggs for breakfast, ask the waiter to tell the chef to use real butter to fry the eggs.

Great service, very clean room, excellent breakfast
The room is very tired and the noise of the ventilation is constant and noticeable.
I think it's unfair to advertise this as a hotel as, it's just basic accommodation above a pub.
Staff were fine, but nothing outstanding.
Great location for the rugby. Rooms were clean, tidy, and warm and bathrooms had decent showers and hot water. The bar and restaurant are great and very reasonable priced. Will be using again
Thanks
Comfortable bed, spacious room, the room was cool and drafty as they had a humidifier in the room which had gaps as it reached outside the room via the window which was odd. Staff are very nice, food was hot and tasty in the bar/ restaurant.
Very disappointed with one of the rooms I booked! Very small, poorly decorated. Small Shower with nowhere to put toiletries etc. Staff not particularly helpful. No one on Reception!
It was the perfect base from which to explore Kew and visit Kew Gardens. It is only a few minutes walk to the train and underground station which offers easy access to and from London.
The staff are all lovely and really helpful.
I couldn't ask for more! Thank you
On arrival at the hotel we received a less than welcoming welcome. The receptionist asked us to wait before letting us get to the reception and was gone for a good while.
We were told our room would be on the third floor. No lift available. We climbed to the attic room via a last staircase which was dangerous as the stair treads are shaped from wide to nearly nothing.
We are a couple aged 82 and 84. The receptionist was quite impolite and referred to us as "old people".

Disliked: Amenities
The hotel room was nice/okay. However the building got extremely hot, which made it difficult to sleep through the night. AC definitely needed.
After one dreadful night, we checked out and moved to The Premier Inn. There was damp in one of our rooms. The air conditioning unit was held together with sellotape and pumped hot air into the room making it unbearable to sleep at 33 degrees. I was offered a fan, bur as there were no electrical outlets, that was a ridiculous solution. The stair carpets were threadbare. The decor shabby. One room at the front of the building had double doors to a small balcony that could not accommodate the portable air conditioner and banged open and shut all night. It was the dreadful.

The en-suite
Silicone around the shower was mouldy, there was no proper exraction fan in there and the aircon unit in the bedroom was freestanding talking up a large proportion of the room and was extremely noisy during use. Room didnt feel it had been properly cleaned and there's no lift so we had to struggle getting our suitcases up 7 flights of stairs.
There was no lift
Nice place, good breakfast, nice room. Only drawback with an old property: no lift, and the window/curtains were in need of repair. But it didn't bother us.
