We had a short break at the hotel and we would recommend staying here. The rooms are spacious and clean with the convenience of being in the centre of Hitchin. The staff cannot do enough for you and we would book to come to the hotel again.

Great value for money, comfy bed with air con and large TV. The only negative was there’s an emergency exit sign in the room which lights up so bright at night it’s like having the main light on. I was so tired I just slept through it though

Check in took place in a very hot takeaway restaurant and the shopworker had to call for the person checking us in while we waited. This was very uncomfortable. The first thing I noticed was how flimsy the outside door looked and the 1nd thing was how musty the room smelled. The room was big and although very dated, not obviously dirty but the windowsills were covered in cobwebs and the bathroom was the source of most of the musty smell, with mold on the shower and ceiling and a toilet with an ill fitting seat. The room was cheap, and in a good location. Unfortunately that also means that it is noisy until very early in the morning. Positive points for having a mini fridge that was actually cold and for the room being a decent temperature which was lucky as I slept on top of the sheets.

Unhappy with hotel
We was very disappointed when we entered the main door to the stairs of the building. There was an old dirty smell and entering our room it was very shabby, tired, and unclean. Although the building is Oldie worldly, the furniture was also old. The tired and dirty room let our stay down. The curtains were torn and not even hung properly. The carpet was worn in areas and tired. The bedding although washed, had old blood stains and other stain on the quilt. There were lots of cobwebs on the radiator, and dust on the skirting boards and around the edge of the carpet. The bathroom was small and for short people. Myself and my husband are tall and struggled with the limited space to get into the shower. Once in the shower if you are over 5 foot 4 you are bent over in the shower. You couldn’t flush the toilet for at least 20-30 after previously flushing. This spoilt our 3 day stay in Hitchin. Unfortunately once there at the Villare hotel and paid for our room then shown to our room we were not happy. We did try to booking into the premier inn after arriving at the Villare hotel but it was fully booked. I will definitely not be booking Villare hotel again.

Avoid unless paralytic so you dont notice the bad
We checked in by going into the Mexican fast food restaurant next door and shown to our room. Very basic with too long curtains that I tripped on and they had holes in the blackout lining. The “hotel” appears like it’s being left to rot as it looks to be getting a steady income from refugees. The walls are paper thin and all the car noise could be heard from outside. My favourite part was that check out was at 11am according to the website. At just past 10am we got a knock in our door to ask when we were planning to check out. I had an alarm set for 10:30 so to have this wake up call was not great. We got dressed and left to find that no one was around anymore to check us out and as the Mexican restaurant was closed we tried the two mobile numbers multiple times and no one answered. Awful all round. I’d stay in the premier inn.

Could be so much better, my curtains didn't shut properly. The lights still had tape around them, room didn't get cleaned daily but location is brilliant with free parking and breakfast which wasn't great. Needs more staff. Would I stay again..... probably
