    "The hotel was generally clean and the staff pleasant. It was disappointing to have to keep going back to reception to complain when we first arrived as we were tired after a long drive and it was also late at night." (107525963)

    Reception and Bar staff were very helpful.

    The room we checked in to had not been cleaned or the bed changed. The embarassed Receptionist then found us another room. We then had to go back to reception again to ask for towels! The TV would not keep the selected channel and there was no remote control. Although the barman was very nice he had to keep running to the other bar for some of the drinks. It took about 10 minutes to order 4 drinks.

    "This was our first night away on our own, without our children who are 6 and 11. We were attending a friend's wedding and wanted to make the most of being on our own. The final straw was when the fire alarm went off in our room at 9am on the Bank holiday Monday morning. The staff were pleasant enough but we didn't get an apology about being woken up when we checked out." (97678093)

    The general appearance of the hotel was lovely. The reception was light and airy and the smell of fresh lillies that were on display smelt gorgeous.

    The receptionist didn't explain how to get to our room very well, and so we ended up in a restaurant with our luggage and clothes on hangers, and luckily asked another member of staff who showed us the way, saying that more signs were needed. Not a good start. Our room was ok but could have done with a more thorough clean as there were noticable cobwebs and dust on the carpets behind the easy chairs. There were no tissues and only 3 teabags on the welcome tray.

    "The hotel is in a very poor condition, updating required. I was looking forward to stay in a Mc Donald hotel as the adverts indicate quality, but this was not the case." (108059168)

    Excellent location

    Poor room/hotel condition. Broken aerial socket, mould in shower dirty carpets, room decor very poor, all lights not working, plaster broken away from around dimmer switch exposing mains wires.

    "Good situation, close to access both M1 and M25 Motorways whilst being in attractive semi countryside. Good directions given. Attractive building and internal spaces." (97397155)

    Crisp linen, soft pillows and excellent mattress. Quiet and efficient Receptionist. I rate Macdonald's staff;this was a Macdonald Hotel but I didn't realise that from the Web site or whilst booking.

    "I would stay again. Great value. Solve the shower issue and internet cutting out and it's a highly recommended hotel." (97640635)

    Great Staff. Great service. Very accomodating staff and very helpful.

    The shower had some sort of discoloration in it(mold?). Looked like it needed bleach. The internet wasn't reliable. Needs a booster. I stayed in Room 2. No instructions on how to retrieve message. None of the staff knew either.

    "The hotel was very pleasant and beautifully decorated for Christmas. The staff were very helpful and the breakfast was delicious and service in the restaurant was excellent. However the room on our arrival was cold and considering it was the middle of December and very cold, the heating should have been already on. Also the tea/coffee stocks were low and inadequate and considering the cost of the room I have had better in a cheaper hotel. This apart it was a pleasant hotel for an overnight stay or weekend break." (97553781)

    The room was very comfortable, clean and spacious. Staff very helpful and efficient.

    The room was cold on arrival and took quite a long time for the heating to work and warm the room. The tea/coffee making facilities could have been better stocked.

    "We were aware that this is a popular Hotel for weddings and functions and did expect that it would be noisier than it was. The breakfast was exeptional and we were very quickly served." (99199251)

    We found the room very quiet and peaceful

    In view of the cost we shouldn't make any comments - however we found the wardrobes surrrounding the bed a little disconcerting

    The room was clean and comfortable, with everything needed for a pleasant stay. Kettle in the room was excellent.

    The room was classed as a double, but it was two singles on a double frame, this meant there was a weird lump in the middle of the bed, not very comfy at all! The shower was a bit weak, but for a one night stay perfectly adequate.

    "The online booking was easy and the staff on arrival and end of my stay very nice. When advised of the faulty light and hot water it was attended to straight way. The hotel is set in a lovley part of the Chiltern's with a good golf course just over the road from the hotel. This with interesting visits in the local area and easy access to London made my stay very interesting and welcoming." (99823383)

    Room was nicely set out and welcoming, the booking in was easy.

    The light in the bathroom was not working and the hot water took a while to come through.

    "The location of the hotel is really good for sales people who have to cover London and the SE. Central London was very easy to get to and yet the semi-rural nature of the hotel makes it a very pleasent place to stay. The value of the room was good with the exception of the above complaint which is a pity. But first and foremost I'm buying a good nights sleep which I did not get." (99017087)

    An excellent location. Friendly staff and a good level of service at the restaurant and bar areas

    My room was not sound proofed. My neighbour insisted on watching TV until 3.30am and I could hear every word through an ajoining door

The first mornings breakfast we ordered lightly boiled eggs, you could not even get your knife in the yolk they where so hard, on the second morning I ordered toast and it arrived covered in mould. At reception when I tried to book out my bill had 3 lots of charges that where not mine." (99228264)
