We have just returned from a two night leisure break and could not fault this hotel. Before deciding which hotel to use in this area I rang Hemel Hempstead and after speaking to Aurorita I knew this hotel was the one for us; she was so friendly and professional so we booked. I then rang her back after booking on... more

Stayed for the second time at this hotel and experienced once again the excellent accomodation and service. Cannot be faulted. The food was delicious and the room clean and tidy. We will be back for the third time soon. Many thanks. more

Booked the hotel due to the location near Maylands Avenue. A friend of mine told me to come off at Junction 9 of the M1 not Junction 8 for Hemel Hempstead, has the hotel is easy find which it was. Check in was not fast however the receptionist was friendly. The room was a walk from reception however on entering... more

Stayed for just 1 night. Reception check-in took 20 mins due to large queue and 1 member of staff. 10 minute walk to hotel room (seriously). Room was good (not great). Restaurant was dead so drove 2 miles down the road to an excellent pub. Breakfast was OK. Staff generally OK but didn't seem bothered, more hassled. Would stay there... more

We had a room with single glazing and all day (and night) it was like being in a fridge; the hotel needs to turn on the heating!!! I hunted round the room in vain for blankets but there were... more

Stayed in this hotel for a short break with my wife, Thought that the hotel was in nice surroundings and just a short distance to both Hemel and St Albans. The room was clean and presentable. I thought that the prices in the hotel were on the high side. but on the whole it was an enjoyable stay. more

Chose this hotel because it was where I needed it to be in respect of the places I was visiting and also, many years ago before it was a hotel, the house was owned by my father's employer and I wanted to see what it was like these days. Staff very freiendly. Service was good. Food in restaurant was generally... more

We have just returned from a two night stay at the Ramada and fell that the property is very tired and in desperate need of a refurbishment. The hotel is clean and the staff are very friendly and helpful. The breakfasts are very good and plentiful. We did not have dinner in the hotel but on viewing the the menu... more
