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.

Needed a shower after a long day of hiking only to find out the room had no hot water. There was no telephone in the room so went back down to report the issue. The manager came up to check and confirmed no hot water in all the rooms but all should be ok in 20 minutes. That never happened. Ended up having a cold shower. Resulted to boiling water 5 kettle of water the next morning as a makeshift. Not pleased with the manager’s attitude either. Will definitely not use again. If you must use the hotel ask for room at the back. Street side noisy with traffic and people leaving the pub.

Excellent stay
The bedrooms were well decorated and comfortable. The staff were all very friendly and efficient, and the manager/owner was very accommodating to our groups requests. Only downside is no car park, but you can park for free a couple of mins walk away and wasn't really an issue for us

Horrendously noisy
The noise in this hotel is horrendous it goes on til 1am slightly toned down between 12-1am had the tv on loud but could still be heard over that had to buy earplugs but i could still hear the noise from below and it starts again at 11am when the pub opens. If you like a cuppa take your own only 1 teabag and 1 sachet of coffee each and the milk is in a fridge down the hallway which is very inconvenient. It is a lovely room and comfy bed and good location for town but unfortunately the noise far outways all of this. At £110 per night and NO breakfast not value for money.
