Sopwell House Hotel - St Albans

Lovely location and overall a very enjoyable stay.

The location and grounds are stunning, lovely during the summer I'd imagine.

Lovely location, the spa aspect of the stay was fine and the staff were really helpful.

Hotel set in beautiful location highly recommend, the gym is very well equiped.

Beautiful location and good quality food.

We checked in and were pleased with the room-garden views, large bed, flat screen TV, fridge and a TV in the bath!

It was pleasant with a very nice bathroom and a good comfy bed.

Toiletries in the bathroom quite basic - no conditioner, or bath robes/slippers - need to get the bathrobes from the spa.

The room was tired and worn; carpet and furniture stained and shabby, however, the bathroom had obviously been refurbished and was very nice.

We were dealt with very efficiently by reception, and shown to our rather small room, where the furniture was more than tatty, although the bathroom looked as though it had recently been updated.

I enjoyed the buffet breakfast, but the evening meal was very nouvelle cuisine and definitely not substantial enough.

The interiors are brought upto modern standards, the staff couldn't have been more welcoming and efficient service at breakfast was testament to a restaurant is well-managed.

Later on two of us went to the bar and had a drink where we got pounced upon by the restaurant manager, even though our table wasn't booked for another 45 minutes.

The following morning we had to wait in the bar for half an hour before being seated for breakfast (where we were promised coffee but then asked to pay for it!

Albans and eating at restaurants in the town which were much more reasonable and provided better quality food than Sopwell house.

Service throughout the hotel was excellent, the staff were just brilliant and the bathroom was very nice.

Better value, friendly staff and the lovely receptionist greeted us.

Really beautiful hotel, good service and concierge very efficient taking our bags in as soon as we arrived.

The hotel were lovely, reception staff were friendly on arrival and the room was comfortable.

Access to the spa and swimming pool was a big bonus, though in the afternoon the pool reverberated with the sound of childrens' screams.

The swimming pool is small but in a very nice setting; the spa aspect of the stay was fine.

Excellent hotel with spa and indoor pool.

Each time I have stayed the room has been totally different to the one before but always clean and spacious.

The room we stayed in was clean, the food was superb.

Rooms on the other side of the hallway have a more pleasant view of the gardens, this hotel is clean and one of the best buffets I have ever had.

The hotel itself is beautiful, the rooms are huge and the pool is very clean.

The room was excellent, food in the brasserie was very nice and the spa was clean.
