Alton Hotels

Great value for money clean hotel

Only stayed for 1 night but it doesn't take any longer to get a good (or Bad) impression. The whole place was clean & tidy, the staff most polite, helpful and welcoming. I didn't make use of the restaurant but that was my choice.

Very quiet location. Best for drivers. Though it is close to the town centre there is no footpath as the road is narrow. Bus service runs hourly. Bus ride into town is probably 10 minutes. Very friendly owners.

The owners are a hardworking and very friendly couple who run the B & B, the village Post Office, shop, Cricket Club, and Village day. The room was equipped with everything one could reasonably expect, plus cooking equipment. A first class breakfast was cooked whenever one came down. The layout of our room was slightly odd, with the ensuit bathroom across the corridor, but a bath robe was povided.

We arrived before check-in (3pm) and were not made as welcome as we could have been by the bar staff which was slightly awkward as we we needed to drop our bags off prlor to a wedding. That being said everything else about our stay was excellent. The room was sumptuous, well equipped with bath robes and nice fluffy towels! The location is in a quite country road with little traffic to disturb. The hotel offers plenty of parking. Cooked Breakfast is more than adequate with plenty of choice and the coffee is good too!

friendly front of house staff, room was nice only downside was the long hairs and dust balls behind toilet door (noticeable when shut door and sat on loo). We ate in hotel lunchtime whilst we waited for check in which was lovely, however our evening meal and breakfast were ruined by fact we had to keep asking for service, waiting staff often just staring into space or chatting instead of watching what customers needed, we ordered dessert and when wrong thing was delivered we asked staff if it was correct, waitress went off to check leaving us sat with pud in front of us and never came back with the answer when another staff member (same person who was on front of house) asked if everything was ok and we explained the waitress replied to her the answer but hadn't come back to us but had just left us sat there.
