A night away to watch the rugby!
Had a lovely stay at this beautiful old hotel. Only stayed one night. Staff were very nice. We managed to get a parking spot, although spots are very tight.

Our family enjoyed the stay at The White Hart, it's spot on for a traditional hotel. Great staff and the location is steps from the St Albans Abby and high street shopping.

Disappointed
Mattress in room 15 desperately needs replacing, slight movement creates spring noises. Window had no secondary glazing(road facing) so draughty and no noise protection. Mould in bathroom, shower head needs attention.
Staff lovely, breakfast good, let down by poor investment in the room.

A 2 star hotel with very uncomfy bed
I definitely won't go back. The greeting on arrival felt hostile with the male (i presume owner) demanding my credit card to take details for the full cost of the stay despite having already paid hotels.com in full. I expected to give a £50 authorisation which is the standard amount but not £116! And he wouldn't hear of me questioning it. The room itself felt clean, although very small and the bathroom literally had a loo and a shower with no room to be able to close the door. When i tried to get to sleep it was awful. The noise from the bar downstairs carried on till after 11pm and the bed was the most uncomfortable I've ever slept on, it felt like the mattress was as thin as a sheet on top of a hard board. I woke up at 2am with a terrible sore back and had to fold up the duvet and sleep on top of it just to try and get comfy. Hotels.com have this as a 3 star but when looking on Google is actually a 2 star which i would NEVER have booked if I'd known baring in mind there's a premier inn for cheaper just up the road. An awful experience

It is an interesting 15th century property with lots of charm. Staff were very helpful.
Watch out if booking a twin room. Ours was noisy, and the beds were lumpy and creaky. I could only sleep the other way around. I saw much better double rooms on lower floors.

Top place to stay with a lot of character
Perfect nigh away for a business trip. Great central location with parking. Have stayed at the White Hart a few times and if you are looking to stay in a place with some history and a lot of character, then this is the one for you.

A great central location with an excellent breakfast. But if you hope for a reliable internet, don’t stay at the back of the building. I was told by staff the bad service was due to the rain, but it was still hopeless on the next sunny day. I had to go into the tea room for it to work.

This is a lovely listed building so you have to appreciate that some areas of the property are in need of attention. The windows & seals were rotten but it’s a very old property so have to accept this. The room we had was quite small but a nice comfy bed & shower room which is all we needed for a two day stay. The staff were extra friendly & helpful. We had a lovely stay in an old quirky hotel !
