The beds are NOT comfortable at all especially the sofa bed. There seems to be a problem with flies in the rooms we booked two rooms and they both had the issue with flies. The mattresses need updating I hardly slept.

This property is located near the Watford Junction train and bus station and is within walking distance of it. The hotel is modern and the room was nice. Staff were very friendly.
This is a great hotel to stay at if you are visiting Harry Potter World as the shuttle bus to the studios is from the Bus stops near the train station which is quite close to the hotel .
Despite the hotel being near to the train and bus station I did not hear any noise pollution at night . I would highly recommend this hotel and I would stay here again. 5*****

A very nice stay
Stayed for 2 nights. The hotel offers an excellent location right next to the Watford Junction station, and a 5-muinutes walk to the Watford High Street. The room was clean and well-maintained. We opted for the breakfast and it was a good choice. Not a wide food selection but everything served was of great quality. Very nice coffee too! The staff were also very helpful and friendly. Highly recommended.

Not the relaxing time I expected. There was building work and on my second day, I had workmen at my window on the 1st floor and the banging went on for hours, not finishing till 7 pm. The accommodation was as expected.
