Great place to stay or unwind

This is my go to place now when in the area. 5* for everything from location to staff and reasonably priced. No negatives at all

Perfect for a business stay

Typical of a Greene King pub Hotel clean and comfortable but quite basic free on-site parking and breakfast available from 7 am
MICHAEL, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

This is an old building and has some limitations on what it can do to improve. Rooms and corridors are in need of a refurb. Shower cubicle was tiny. Staff were good and the check in person on reception was very friendly and knowledgeable. Public areas nice and in a good location.

Nice stay in an historic building.

Quaint and charming building, nods to its history. Staff were really friendly and accomodating. The room was reasonably sized and clean. Both it and the bathroom would benefit from being spruced up - the decor is really tired and the window wouldn't shut properly. However, the bed was really comfortable and that made up it. Very good value for the price. Would stay there again.

Hitchin weekend

Had very comfortable and affordable stay whilst visiting family in Hitchin. Would definitely consider returning. All staff were very helpful. Left a couple of items in the room on leaving and these were cheerfully found and kept on reception for pick up.

A cold night but otherwise OK

We were attending a reunion dinner in Hitchin and did not want to be driving home late so we arranged to stay in town. We were therefore only staying for sleep and breakfast. The beds themselves were comfortable but the radiator in the room was not working which made for a cold night, especially as the windows were not double glazed. Breakfast was included and was excellent, with any combinaton of buffet and cooked items.

Food was pretty awful and overpriced. Wished we had walked into town where there were loads of really good restaurants

High life in Hitchin

Nice room and a very pleasant Pub. Parking was easy and ...free! Had drinks and snacks in the Pub,all of which were good. Nice place for a stop over.
Barry, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

I was happy with the Sun hotel for the price I paid. It was relatively cheap and I thought the hotel was good value. It is a very old listed building and there are timbers that are hundreds of years old visible throughout. As a result of the age some of the floors and walls are uneven but this adds to the character. The staff were friendly and helpful and the breakfast was tasty.
