We stayed for one night as we were in town for a friends birthday celebration. Firstly, we weren't told about some refurb going on and so the place was a little upside down. Not too much of a problem but it would have been nice to be advised. The room we were allocated was pretty horrible. The ceilings were very... more

Our son was getting married near Hitchin and we had chosen Hitchin as a central location to have atypical Sunday lunch for all our guests who had come from far. The lunch was at the Hitchin Priory just a half block away, so we suggested the Sun Hotel as a place to stay. This is a very old hotel but... more

We revisited the Sun Inn, Hitchin. It was where we had our wedding evening and where, in the past before leaving the area, we have enjoyed many meals. Prior to arriving I made a request for something special to be made available for our meal. The manager and the chef went out of their way to get the required choice.... more

A great little hotel in the centre of Hitchin. A very old property full of original features. Room was very spacious and comfortable ensuite with a shower over bath. Food was of a very good standard and price was within expectations for the area. Staff were very friendly, one young lady on bar/waitressing in particular, very professional and eager to... more

December 10 2007 Hitchin is a nice, small market town full of character and typical of the period. Second time I've stayed here on business. Typical olde worlde coaching Inn. The location is perfect, bang in the centre. Parking available behind the hotel, through the archway. If it's full, carry on to the pay & display behind, free parking from... more

The Sun Inn is a listed (and listing!) former coach house and the site in the very centre of town dates back to the 1600 s. The hotel is situated near all shops and amenities in this very attractive and varied market town. Hitchin was once the centre of the coaching routes between London, the Midlands and the North and... more

The Sun Inn is a very charismatic former coaching Inn but suffers from an ambitious attempt at a transformation, with far too much money spent on fancy bed spreads, and too little on staff. There is little choice in the area so it is from desperation rather than delight that has taken me back there. The building is very original... more
