The hotel could not offer us the full English breakfast due to refurbishment. We could not get up the flights of stairs due to decorators and dust sheets. our room was poor, the window rattled in the night, two light fittings failed to work. our daughters room was worse, infested with ladybirds, they were all over her baby's cot. we... more

Three rooms were booked for my family in September for a wedding we were attending in November in Woburn. They confirmed a full english breakfast was included "better than the Inn at Woburn" they claimed. A week before the wedding a message was left saying there would be no breakfast as the pub was undergoing refurbishment, I should point the... more

The hotel was apparently 'under new management'. As far as I could see, it wasn't under any management at all. The hotel is very tired and the receptionist/manageress gives the impression that she doesn't want to be there. On arrival, we were allocated room 16 in the main building.

Although I only paid £40 for the night including a half decent breakfast the overall level of service was poor. On arrival I phoned across the road to the pub and some one checked me in and quickly dissapeared back to serve in the pub. I was given directions to my room from reception. The single room was clean,bed was... more

Upon returning from our honeymoon we got into Heathrow a little later than expected. We decided to stop at Woburn on our way back up north for a bite to eat. We did a bit of a recky round and saw that the Bell looked nice & the food seemed reasonable. The staff were very friendly and we decided to... more
