e careful booking at this hotel
Booked in to the contractors part of this hotel at extra cost Turned up only to be told that I was at another hotel !! I had paid for the privilege of a fridge and microwave in the room So was disappointed when all I got was a room without the facilities I had paid for and nobody was willing to help so be very careful booking this hotel as they will promise your a crontactors room with no refund then just put you in a standard room in a different hotel !! Absolute scam easy money for nothing

I didn't like the fact that my room was not actually in the hotel but at least 500mtrs further down the road at another house. There was no mention of this when I booked my room, the breakfast was very good.

This is without doubt the worst place I have ever stayed in, it should be closed down and it is clear that EBookers do not vet any of the hotels they list.

You now have to pay a 50 pounds deposit. Only room for 5 cars. The main door needs a soft close put on 6 times we were woken then at 7am so noisy by our window we left by 9am totally exhausted.

Good value
Comfy bed. Don’t understand bad reviews. I’m a very light sleeper and the train isn’t even bad or that frequent. Bit wierd that it’s also run as another name aswell. Microwave and fridge in my room if needed. Clean. Comfy bed. Cheap enough especially for the area. Can’t complain

Student accommodation
Basically a room in a student house! The room was clean but old and small and poorly laid out. Windows did not block road noise. Curtains did not block much daylight. House smelled of communal kitchen permanent take-away. Shower screen did not open and close. Parking was not easy and confusingly, the "Guest house" is a series of old properties operated by the Buckingham Hotel so not actually at the locations advertised - just a few mins down the road depending upon which one you are in. It was cheap (£50) and did the job for 2 people needing a bed for 4 hours sleep on the way south.

Basic but good value
This was exactly what I required. Clean and everything worked with parking. Only slight irritation was the fact the tea and coffee was not replenished everyday, but this is very minor. For the price this was good value

Spacious apartment
Spacious apartment on ground floor. Parking behind property off road. Beds comfortable, large kitchen, modern bathroom. Unfortunately the blind and curtains in sleeping areas didnt keep daylight out very well so room was bright at 5am, other than that a comfortable nights stay and good value.

This is not what is pictured. The room was tiny and beaten up. The facility is more like a flop house. I can’t stress enough how deceiving the advertising is for this place. Unsafe, unsanitary, and unsatisfactory.

last minute booking for local event
we booked the hotel at the last minute following an invite to a local event. It is easy to find but the title is confusing...we booked Buckingham hotel , the confirmation arrived as contractors guest house!....still we looked for the property number, 156 on the road side and.....checked in to the Buckingham hotel!.....parking is available but can get full.....check-in was easy and we went to the top floor....in a hot summer, the room was quite hot....but was big enough, clean and tidy and all looked quite new, easily good enough for one night, or equally a week. Late night return was fine as the desk is 24hrs. breakfast was good and all staff were very polite and friendly. the hotel is possibly a mile from the town centre , maybe less and suited us very well....also the room price was very reasonable.....happy to recommend on all aspects of our stay!

Overall ok except the shower knob for the hot water in the shower and the knob on the shower door needs repairing. When we arrived we find that the name of the property is Buckingham Hotel and not Contractors Guest House.

Expensive for the quality of the room.
The room was clean except the spots on the walls... The bedding was awful, the spring-mattress was really old and not comfortable. You can hear the TV and other noises from the other room. The light in the bathroom was not always working. The shared kitchen is dirty and derelict. Find another place to stay, for example an Airbnb because 110€ for 2 people for 2 nights is literally robbery.
