Don’t bother staying.
What an awful experience. Very old property shocking restaurant menu, so bad I didn’t eat an evening meal there and didn’t chance the breakfast. Great little pub up the road called the Chieftain which was the only highlight of this experience .

Decent hotel
A decent basic hotel, we were placed in the outside building which was quaint. Fire stick in the TV which was good in the eve. Comfy bed and decent shower. Breakfast buffet was a tad dire (selection of foods and really bad coffee) but they do make eggs to order which was good, I'd give it a miss and eat in Welwyn for the same cost. Location is very close to Welwyn, pub about 2 mins walk away does decent food.

Only stay if nowhere else available
Honestly we drove up and nearly drove away it was so drab and looks appalling. Clearly housing use and the sound of screaming babies from open windows we said lets just see the room as we wanted to be near Hatfield house - which it isn't really. The room was a small block next door called the peter room and it was ok. But why make it a twin room and have two towels etc but only 1 hot chocolate & 1 biscuits?? Then the noise....... there was a note on the table saying ask to switch rooms as they are aware of loud noise from next door due to it being a through door next to the tv. We could hear every single sound like they were in the same room wven when they were clearly patting a babies back to wind it. You shouldn't be able to hear things to that degree. We then turned on the air conditioning unit which is a stand alone unit snd super noisy but at least it drowned out next door. The beds are like sleeping on the floor and the shower was a walk-in disabled shower that does not drain very well and the entire bathroom floor gets wet so lovely going to the toilet after getting wet feet and nearly slipping over each time. I would rather sleep in my car than do this again it was absolutely awful. This is a truly honest and frank opinion of our stay.

Good sized room but bed too small!
We stayed in Hurst - a suit with a small kitchen unit and seating area. The main disappointment was the bed. At a standard 4.6" it felt cramped (used to a ft) but the main issue is that you rolled into the middle and therefore crashing into one another. Also, the temperature was not ideal as the quilt was to narrow for the bed. It barely touched both sides.
