Perfect for our requirements

We only stayed overnight and didn't take any of the refreshments as had a family party to attend. Room comfortable and very impressed with the Receptionist's knowledge when she was talking to another foreign guest who wanted info on how to get to London. She gave details of train times etc. and was so much better than the Receptionist at the Hotel where we continued onto for our main holiday.

Lovely Rooms, Difficult to Find

We stayed for 3 nights at the Holiday Inn while we attended the Sonisphere Music Festival at Knebworth. We got a great rate of £110 for 3 nights room only. Breakfast was £10pp each day which we thought was expensive. The Premier Inn down the road did fully cooked breakfast for £7.25pp but we needed to keep costs down so we took cereal and UHT milk with us. Tea, coffee, TV in room. Standard holiday inn. Large comfortable bed and even with loud parties on when we returned at 1am on Sunday morning, we couldn't hear the noise in our room.[...]We thought initially we were in a bad location for Knebworth as there is no easy direct route across from the M1 to A1 but the country roads were very direct and quite quick, if a little narrow in places.

Excellent rapport qualité prix pour une nuit en week end

Très bonne étape au Nord de Londres parfaitement située après une traversée de la manche pour un voyage vers l'Ecosse, le pays de Galles ou L'Irlande via Holyhead. Cela permet de souffler après le trafic très dense du contournement de Londres. Très bon lit, douche OK. Il est possible de manger sur place, un peu cher cependant. Le prix du petit déjeuner est raisonnable, notamment la version continentale.
