The quality of the rooms, bedding, bathrooms and food did not reflect the prices and we were very dissapointed. The breakfast was particularly awful and of poor quality. The staff were mostly unhelpful and some were just rude. The whole experience was unplesant and... more

There used to be three really good restaurants in Harpenden, sadly now the 3 Horseshoes has changed hands there are only 2. The food remains good but everything else is sorely lacking. Pitted supermarket olives floated in a sea of oil, smaller portions (the menu is now fixed price and NOT what is on their website) badly finished; my supposedly... more

When I read the previous review I was very concerned but I did not regret staying in the Glen Eagle Manor. The room was clean, the heat worked fine and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. You can take a drink in the lobby which has a cosy, British home style atmosphere and you get wireless access to the... more

This hotel is alright. Stayed here one night for a wedding. Easy little walk from the train station. Easy check in, but gave us a smoking room when a non was booked. Decor is old, but adds to the charm of the old hotel. Spacious enough just needs a little upgrading. The bathroom accessories were lacking compared to others I've... more
