I had a perfect one-night stay here (the night before a funeral) but hope to come back one day just to relax and explore the town. The breakfast was superb! And the warm welcome was much appreciated.

Nobody at check-in so had to wait 5 minutes, room was freezing cold and although it was 0°C outside radiator was switched off. WiFi was intermittent and kept disconnecting. Nice old pub with excellent parking in a lovely area with friendly staff just could do better for the price

This hotel and its nearby sister hotel are our go-to for stays in Amersham, of which we've had many. Good breakfasts (sometimes offered in one or the other hotel) and a variety of room types plus on-site parking.

Beautiful hotel & fab location for trip to London

Really lovely hotel. Beautifully decorated and super clean. Loved the cute quirky design too! Plenty of parking in secure area. We were able to check in 30 mins early when we arrived. Delicious breakfast with plenty of choice. Well situated for us to take a tube on Metropolitan line into the West End (1 hour journey) from Amersham station (a 20 minute walk away) and avoid paying any hefty train fees of congestion charge.

We arrived close to check in opening time. The person checking us in seemed preoccupied with resolving other issues. We were then sent in wrong direction to our room.

Being kept awake till 11.30pm by customers from the bar and being woken up at 5.45 am by an extremely loud refuse collection noisily wheeling the bins along the cobbles. Horrendous noise to be woken by.

Booked here at the last minute for a short-notice trip, and made my choice largely based on availability, but I appear to have been very lucky to have chosen this gem of a place. Absolutely lovely hotel set in a really nice traditional building with more modern annexes at the back (but still in keeping with the original older building), very clean and comfortable rooms (including air conditioning), friendly and helpful staff, really nice atmosphere, and overall a very pleasant experience to stay there. And exceptional value for money too. I found this place by accident/chance but I would definitely stay here again by choice. A lovely experience, thank you.
