The staff are very friendly and courteous. The room was very good. I had breakfast at the restaurant, the pancake machine is fantastic. I didn’t have an evening meal there, so I cannot comment. But when I’m next in the area, I’ll make sure to stay here.

What stood out for me during my visit to Forest of Arden was polite, friendly and efficient staff. Great security. Food was good. And my room was clean and well presented. I slept the best Ive ever slept in any hotel. The place just has a lovely energy. I felt very calm and rested which I needed as I was in the area exhibiting which was exhausting so it was wonderful to be able to come back to such a chill calm space. Lovely setting. I will rebook next year.
