If you’re in England I can’t imagine staying in a Holiday Inn on the outskirts of town when you could be in the heart of a 2,000 year old city, can cross the street and get an excellent meal or coffee, and see amazing architecture like the St Albans Abbey/Cathedral less than 200 metres from the door step of this historic 470 year old hotel that has seen it all and dripping in character and charm. It was about the hottest day of the year at 35 degrees but the staff had a fan going and I had two windows to open up. Whoever owns it cares about doing upgrades properly and if that British standard can continue the world will be better for it. I only wish I had been staying longer.

The bed was comfortable. The tea/coffee available in the room was good. It was very noisy because it's on a main road and the windows do nothing to reduce the noise. The building is very old so this was to be expected.

I have stayed at this hotel quite a number of times now. It is old and a bit quirky but I like that. The location in the center of town right opposite the cathedral could not be better. The rooms vary quite a lot from spacious to really small so knowing the rooms helps. On this trip I stayed twice on different dates and on the second stay had room C1 which is excellent and I would try to get again. The windows in the rooms are original and single paned so you do get some road noise in a lot of the rooms. However, C1 has newer windows and much less noise. Overall I will be staying again.
