Vad gäster tycker

På Down Hall Hotel lovordar resenärer den storslagna, historiska miljön, de omfattande markerna och den smakfulla inredningen, tillsammans med generellt vänlig och professionell service samt bekväma rum. Många uppskattar också bar- och matalternativen, och flera gäster nämner avkopplande spabehandlingar.

Det vanligaste klagomålet är bristen på luftkonditionering, med vissa rum som är obehagligt varma och fönster som knappt kan öppnas. En minoritet tycker också att vissa rum är små, daterade, bullriga eller har en besvikelseväckande utsikt. Maten får ofta beröm, men frukostservicen och kaffemaskinerna kan vara kaotiska, priserna upplevs som höga av vissa, och spaanläggningen kräver ofta förbokning, kan kännas liten och ha kalla eller begränsade termiska faciliteter. Förvänta dig en pittoresk vistelse på landsbygden med varm service och bekvämligheter, men kontrollera rumstyp, temperaturmöjligheter och tillgång till spaanläggningen innan du bokar.

This is a beautiful property. Whoever has completed the interior design and decorating should be commended - very classy. We happened to visit on a weekend where the weather was stunning, which made everything so much nicer and meant we could spend almost all day outdoors enjoying the grounds and patio area. If the weather wasn't great I suspect we'd have got bored. The staff are very good, the food was excellent. The property and grounds are very clean and tastefully furnished. Compared to our spa hotels, I would say the gym and spa at this hotel is a big let down. The gym is very small and limited in terms of equipment. The spa is very basic, not much more than what you'd expect at a half decent gym. Overall we had a great time, significantly help by the stunning weather. If we were to visit again it would be on a similarly warm day and it would probably be just a day trip.

Place is stunning HOWEVER please make sure you pre book the spa as it doesn’t come included in the room (which is silly) we booked this for my girlfriends birthday and found out on the day spa is fully booked even though the hotel seemed dead. everything is clean staff aren’t too bad, food and service was bang average food was poor tbh, girlfriends chicken wasn’t cooked properly and for the price of everything its was below par compared to when we went to Rowhill grange the year before and it was amazing this place was a real let down for us.

Hotel lovely in great surroundings. Room clean but bathroom needed refreshing.(the door). we had dinner in the bar although a little pricey food was excellent and plenty of it. The only down side was the state of the drive with quite a few pot holes could be a problem if unsteady on your feet and not good on the car tyres.

This was by far one of the best stately manor/Halls we have stayed at, The House is breathtaking and spacious, free parking and breakfast was included in the Price. The fine dining was excellent but pricey, Therr was a cheaper option in the lounge bar. Drinks expensive but well worth it for the experience. Spa and hydra pools not included but was very nice. The best thing about the hotel were the staff. Polite, helpful and attentive, by far the best service we have had in a long while. Thoroughly impressed and highly recommended

The reception task is great and was very helpful. June selected and made a reservation at a wonderful restaurant we thoroughly enjoyed. The original room we were assigned had insect nests. The hotel kindly moved us to another room, though it was much smaller and needed some cleaning. For example, had I had cleaning supplies I would have washed/dusted the wooden blinds in the bathroom, cleaned spots of mold in the tub/shower, and wiped the outside window sills.

The hotel was clean, comfortable and convenient. Rooms very comfy, with great pillows. Very nice bathroom with lovely complimentary toiletries and fluffy towels. Bar has a very good range of drinks and the menu is varied. Prices as you would expect from a 4* of this calibre. Grounds are beautiful and parking is plentiful. Recommend and look forward to staying again.

Staff were incredibly stressed and one member of staff sighed when I asked for drinks. The food was delicious but the portion sizes were tiny considering the pricing!! The bed was comfy and the room was nice and clean, it was warm and the fan came in handy. There was however breakfast trays left in the hallways for several hours, observed from 09:30 until at least 12:30, dirty linen was also left in the hallways under the stairs.

We were only staying for 1 night, 5 hrs to drive and then allocated a room with a view over the car park, quite disappointing given the nightly rate. The pillows were awful and in desperate need of replacing, staff aren’t particularly welcoming, warm or friendly. Breakfast was really poor, no turn down service in the room. I have a bad back and struggled to open some of the doors to get to our room. We also booked the spa and couldn’t use the thermal pool as it was freezing, steam room didn’t work and the loungers outside had no covers and the area and floor is filthy. Hotel ordered us a taxi and they charge us £28 to go 5 miles yet we only paid a local cab £12 to return!! I think on check out guests should be asked if everything is/was okay but the guy seemed more interested in whether we had any extras to pay for and clearly uninterested if we were happy guests. I had such high expectations from the website but this is just a very mediocre hotel pretending to be something it isn’t! We will not be returning and we will not be recommending this hotel to our family and friends.

Impossible to sleep at night given room temperatures of 28 degrees +; without availability of AC. Windows don’t fully open. In the modern era, a far more comfortable sleep would have been had at a Travelodge, Premier Inn etc for a third of the price. And the food quality: £25-30 a dish for Wetherspoons quality. Again, better off just going to Spoons! Good venue for an event; terrible place to stay.

Horrible! Never again the room was above the kitchen and the rubbish bins! Flys and noise made the room unbearable, constant noise from the extraction fans goingon - with the weather being warm and not having air conditioning made the room so hot having needing the window open the only option - staff did move me but it’s was so late and spoilt a very special occasion

A word of warning, this hotel has no air-con and is VERY hot - my room was 36c, the windows opened about 10cm and they couldn't switch my room or move me anywhere, should've researched it myself more. Staff wouldn't do anything to rectify the issue other than provide more fans. Think if you stayed in a chain hotel you'd be at least given some kind of compensation, it doesn't have to be much but a gesture brings the situation under control. Nothing was offered.

Booked through Hotels.com 5 rooms bed and breakfast. Hotel had us down as breakfast only so we had to pay again for it - when I queried they said it was down to Hotels.com, not them. Everyone then had to pay £10 except myself who for some reason was made to pay £15 (despite being told on the phone by reservations when I called to query the bed and breakfast situation that it would be £10). When I queried why I had to pay more, I was met with a smile but no explanation or offer to sort. In te grand scheme of things, £5 is nothing but its the principle. Room was lovely and clean, bar staff were fab, food was nice but the restaurant was soulless.

I loved the grounds the location the decor in this hotel it was beautiful however , the staff were awful no one served myself and my friend on the terrrave for over two hours to the point I got up and went and got the drinks both times myself ! At dinner they didn’t take our plates away we were sat for over an hour with our plates on the table service was poor and basic training needed or more staff so that the day shift staff can rotate as the staff work from day to night then breakfast clearly overworked . Then comes the worse part we didn’t sleep and my other half has extra heat exhaustion because the rooms are not air conned and it was a hot weekend to the point where we had to wet towels on our bodies throughout the night the walls were warm and the tiles in the bathroom hot from how warm it was we told reception who were well aware of how hot it was yet no water was sent to the room or any compensation offered she had told us that she couldn’t do anything about it as the hotel was fully booked and that there was no more fans either ! We overheard a couple at reception say they were leaving to stay in a travel lodge because the environment was inhumane !! Secondly our friends we went with were pregnant it was for my other half’s 30tj birthday we had to cancel the spa the next day as we couldn’t think of anything worse then sitting in heat again and we left before lunch it ruined our stay and for that we would never stay there again it was unbearable

Läge

Naturskönt och lugnt beläget på landsbygden, praktiskt för Stansted Airport och avkopplande pauser. Det avlägsna läget innebär färre närliggande alternativ, så gästerna förlitar sig ofta på restaurangen och tjänsterna på plats.

This is a stunning property for the money, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. It was a perfect location near Stansted Airport where we had just come back from Morocco. Next time we'll stay longer to take full advantage of the grounds which include tennis, croquet and a human sized chess board and hopefully ride bikes around the neighboring villages. Highly recommend !

Måltider

Många gäster bedömer middagar och barmat högt, men flera tycker att frukostservicen är oorganiserad, kaffemaskinerna opålitliga och priserna eller portionerna inte ger valuta för pengarna. Den övergripande matkvaliteten är ofta bra, men upplevelserna varierar mellan olika platser som Garden Room och baren.
