Fantastic!
Couldn’t have wished for a nicer stay. Perfect location to travel into London with frequent trains from Harpenden station.
The room was lovely and spacious. The bathroom was luxurious.
Breakfast was excellent with great choice and service.
Highly recommend.

Old World charm, but parking a serious problem
Nice enough place with a lot of character, but rather pricey for what they offer, and the lack of parking is a serious problem for overnight stays. A nearby car park had machines that weren't working (and a fraudulant parking app that forced me to cancel my debit card), I had to find places to park on the street and move the car around, etc. Not exactly a relaxing expeience

Lovely Pub/Hotel - No Parking
Hotel/Pub very nice - staff super friendly. Would stay again when in Harpenden for sure.
That said
Only issues I had - Parking. Harpenden in general is awful and there isn't much in the way of long term parking near the hotel that I could find.
Also when I checked in - I hadn't realised I paid vis Hotes.com and ended up paying again at the hotel - still trying to sort out but that is more down to me keep missing the manager - they have been helpful.

Staff were nice, room was ok, but i was at the front of the building with a very busy road, noisy all night with single pane glass windows. Also don't plan on eating on a Monday, they don't do food then.

The room was beautiful with a comfortable bed and huge bath. Staff kindly let me check in early as I was going to a local function. The pub itself looked very nice as well.
My room looked out over the garden and it was a summer evening so the staff told me it might be a little noisy until closing time. But I didn't find it noisy and was then very quiet during the night.
A very nice place to stay but quite expensive.
