What guests think

At Village Hotel London Watford, guests frequently highlight friendly staff, comfortable beds, and handy on‑site leisure facilities, but reviews also flag recurring downsides including inconsistent room upkeep, noise disturbances, and frustrations with self‑service check‑in.

The gym, pool and sports‑bar areas are popular, though they can be very busy, sometimes under maintenance, or subject to extra fees and limited access due to classes. Rooms range from modern and spacious to tired or dark, with reports of poor soundproofing, malfunctioning TVs or showers, limited temperature controls, and no in‑room phones for quick help. The location suits drivers and Wembley visitors with easy links to Stanmore Tube, but it sits in a trading estate and can feel a little isolated, with parking fees sometimes applied. Expect good facilities and a lively vibe, but variable room quality and service.

Our family of 4 stayed here for one night ( two rooms) . Both rooms were filthy but one of the rooms was disgusting. Room 329 had clearly been the location of a party- the walls were splattered with beer/champagne, the room had been smoked in a lot, the smell was on the linens and permeated the room and made it so hard to sleep with us to open the window-bathroom had pubic hair, the linens were even dingy. Could not make a cup of tea because the mugs were dirty as were the spoons .the hallways were littered with takeout and the carpets were covered in food and dirt. The other room was also dirty - not to the epic proposition of 329 but the carpet was filthy and it had not been dusted. When I spoke to the young lady at the front desk she told me “it was a mistake” and she had contacted housekeeping and speak to her manager. She offered us a coffee- no offer of a discount - nothing . Terrible - can’t wait to get home and scrub everything that was in the room.

Check in was fairly easy via touchscreen. Would imagine much slower at busy times. Staff friendly. Unfortunately the room was very poor. Stains on bed frame, marks on duvet cover, hair on pillow. Carpet had seen better days. Bathroom very tired. To top it off the neighbouring room had a visitor until 3am and therefore we had no sleep due to loud music (poor sound proofing).

Room was not particularly clean and the Bathroom was very tired and also not very clean d bath Mould in the corner of Shower door. Someone’s Piss was behind the toilet on the floor and there was a sharp object on the floor from a broken door stop. The actual room was nice and very large comfortable bed with the exception the Bedsheet was not larger enough and immediately crumpled up underneath you. As for Breakfast which was extra I would rate it 1 star cheap and just horrible. Had it not been for the fact I arrived very tired and quite late I would have complained when I left there was nobody at the desk to talk to

This hotel is fine for a one night stay. It’s in a close location to the tube and other amenities. The rooms themselves are tired and the room we stayed in and multiple stains on the floor and the bath/shower was stained and shower head was broken. As it was only one night, it was fine. But if I had been staying longer, we would want at the very least to move rooms. 5/10 adequate stay.

Arrived very late and given a room on the 3rd floor. Rooms on the 3rd and 4th floor are designated "club rooms" - the room I was given was nice, had a couple of chairs in it, but unfortunately, it had twin beds. My booking was for a double room and this had been automatically added to the booking as a special instruction. When I tried to call reception, I found there was no means of doing this. A QR code is provided but this didn't work. I had to go back downstairs. I was now given a room on the 2nd floor. I asked if it was the same kind of room as I believed I had been allocated a club room. I was told that none of the available rooms were club rooms - the room was the same. Except it was not - in place of the two chairs was a single footstool. It being long after midnight by now, I decided not to make a big deal about this and to go to sleep. While getting ready for bed, I discovered there was no toilet paper in the room. I don't understand how such a mistake can be made. I had to get dressed again and once again go downstairs. The guy on reception went into the communal ladies toilet behind his desk, but could not find any there either. He promised to bring me some. Once again, I asked about the type of room. He insisted that floors 3 and 4 were not made up of club rooms despite it clearly saying this on the lift. Toilet paper arrived soon after. Next morning, my shower was tepid. Surely, not too hard to do a bit better than this.

Room was good. Breakfast was good apart from terrible coffee. Worst check in and checkout experience of any hotel I’ve stayed in. We had pre booked and pre paid but had to type all our details into a pad on the reception desk and accept terms and conditions that were too long to read. When we left instead of just handing in our keys and telling the receptionist our room number we had to type our details again just to get confirmation that we didn’t owe anything. This longwinded and impersonal process deters me from staying there again.

Booked two club rooms and one room did not have the expresso coffee maker. When I asked front desk for the expresso coffee maker, they said they didn't have one and maybe it's broken for that room and they couldn't bring another one. I did not receive compensation for the uprgraded room. Also, THERE ARE NO PHONES IN THE ROOM. You have to scan a QR code and then select the hotel from a drop down menu to "LIVE CHAT" with someone. Unfortunately when the power went out in my room early morning, I couldn't find the hotel listed in the drop down menu so couldn't communicate with anyone. I would not book this hotel again for that very reason as you can't communicate with front desk if you have a problem or there is an emergency. Had to get dressed in the dark and find someone to help me. Bed was comfortable and pillows were hard.

I am extremely disappointed with my recent stay at Village Hotel due to the continuous intrusion of the housekeeping staff into my room early in the morning. Not only were they walking in on me while I was naked, but the overall service from bottom to top was terrible. Despite raising the issue multiple times, the privacy and security of guests were not prioritised, and this unacceptable behavior persisted. This experience has left me feeling violated and extremely dissatisfied with the level of service provided at Village Hotel. I urge future guests to be cautious when considering a stay at this hotel or just don't even waste your money, as the lack of respect for guest privacy and the overall poor service make it an unsuitable accommodation choice.

I recently had a very disappointing experience at Village Hotel that I feel compelled to share. During my stay, I experienced multiple instances of staff intrusion into my room, which left me feeling violated and uncomfortable. The lack of respect for guest privacy and the overall poor management of this situation was unacceptable. Furthermore, the general attitude towards customers and the lack of value placed on guest satisfaction was evident throughout my stay. It is clear that customer service and guest experience are not a priority at Village Hotel. I strongly advise potential guests to reconsider staying at this establishment, as the disregard for guest privacy and the overall poor management make it an unsuitable choice for accommodation.

Nice location poor service sums it up. Had no toilet roll in the room on arrival. Informed staff as we passed by and they said they would deal with straight away but two hours later still had nothing. Eventually brought something to room but no apology. Staff not very knowledgeable and struggled to get orders right. Think Village has great ideas, food is good and sport on TV's but need further training for staff.

Car parking was only free with the club room, I think because of the price of things it should be free anyway. The bar area is a nice place to sit down have some food and watch the TV, even had a cinema screening in front of one of them which I thought was cool. I'd definitely stay here again, I'd use the gym/swim next time though!

Room was clean, modern and comfortable. Breakfast was good quality and adequate. Issue for us were the bar staff in the evening were a shambles. I had credit on the room to use at the bar and no one understood this (even though you bought it at a discount when checking in), I was charged a tray charge even though it wasn't going to the room, no one knew how to then refund it and this went on for half an hour and even then I just gave in as it wasn't properly sorted and to add insult to injury the pint of Guinness I ordered was only 3/4 full!

As I was with my daughter I asked the concierge about swapping to a twin and he was completely understanding and didn’t hesitate to put it right. We waited in the bar with a complementary drink which was very kind. In a short while our room was ready, great service and all staff we saw around were very welcoming and pleasant.
