This was my first time staying at the Holiday Inn Watford and it was amazing! Everyone was sooo friendly especially the staff in the restaurant. They even helped me surprise my husband on his birthday. It’s also very well situated for going into town and the tube into central London. Definitely stay here!

Room was very basic, bathroom very mouldy, rusty taps. Shower head attachments broken off. Door handle not secure, had to put towels behind door and prop with ironing board overnight. Catering staff unfortunately did not understand food allergy/cross contamination. Very disappointing experience. Will definitely not stay or recommend hotel to anyone.

The rooms were lovely, very clean and comfortable, and the staff were very helpful. Great location for access to the railway station. The only downside was that check-in was at 2, but one of our rooms wasn't ready until 2.45, so we had to wait around for a while.

We paid for the room with no breakfast. The next morning we changed our minds and paid £33.50 for two breakfasts. Unfortunately the breakfast was not nice food. The sausages and bacon were very undercooked. I asked one of the team members for the sausages and bacon i had out on a separate plate to be cooked more. After waiting 20 minutes they came back exactly the same. I was told the kitchen is busy but if i wanted he could go back to the kitchen with the same food and ask the chef again? I did explain we were already late and i cant wait another 20 minutes for this and I'm not happy that i have to pay £16.50 for beans on toast! The ‘manager’ of the restaurant said there is nothing more he is going to do! I asked for his name to which he replied ‘My name is BEN, B-E-N’ and said it very slowly and loudly which now caught the attention of other guests eating their breakfast. I said no problem. I then went to reception and spoke with the lady there who was very polite and friendly but again nothing more was done. I explained i will be taking this further. She offered me free breakfast the next time i stay there. To be quite honest i am quite insulted that i have been offered a breakfast in the same place where the chef is unable to cook a sausage and the manager B-E-N has as much customer service skills as a toilet pan!

The room was satisfactory but i strongly recommend you stay far away as possible from Ben and his bad attitude and the inept chef at the ‘resturant’

The beds are NOT comfortable at all especially the sofa bed. There seems to be a problem with flies in the rooms we booked two rooms and they both had the issue with flies. The mattresses need updating I hardly slept.

Not the relaxing time I expected. There was building work and on my second day, I had workmen at my window on the 1st floor and the banging went on for hours, not finishing till 7 pm. The accommodation was as expected.

This property is located near the Watford Junction train and bus station and is within walking distance of it. The hotel is modern and the room was nice. Staff were very friendly.

This is a great hotel to stay at if you are visiting Harry Potter World as the shuttle bus to the studios is from the Bus stops near the train station which is quite close to the hotel .

Despite the hotel being near to the train and bus station I did not hear any noise pollution at night . I would highly recommend this hotel and I would stay here again. 5*****

A good stay

We found the staff very friendly and helpful, our economy broke at 10pm and we were moved to another room with no fuss, restaurant staff were also a credit to the hotel, our only comment would be that the food quality was not of a very good standard, based on other hotels we have used.
The room was very clean even in corners where other people miss, a credit to the cleaning staff.

We stayed here because it was within walking distance of Watford railway station and the shuttle bus for the Harry Potter Studio Tour.

The staff were pleasant, helpful and approachable. The hotel was clean, quiet and seemed to be in a safe area of town. The beds were comfortable. Towels, hairdryer, soap, shampoo and shower gel, and tea facilities were provided. There was also an electric heater in the room.

The buffet breakfast was good and well stocked. You can also have an evening meal here, and there is a good selection to choose from. Overall food was good.

Some minor points: tea facilities were not replenished, there were not enough tissues or toilet roll, there was a hole in the carpet, a light on the phone flashed constantly through the night and despite asking for it to be dealt with it, it wasn't. The top of the creme brule could be improved.

Considerations for future guests: a games room e.g. a pool table.

The Holiday Inn Watford Junction offers a convenient location, especially for those traveling by train, with easy access to both the station and nearby attractions. Some of the staff were genuinely helpful and went out of their way to assist us during our stay, which made a positive impression. However, this wasn’t consistent across the board, as some staff members seemed disinterested and less attentive.

Our biggest issue was the WiFi. It was, by far, the worst hotel WiFi we’ve ever experienced. Loading a basic email was painfully slow, and we eventually had to head down to the lobby for a more stable connection. If you’re planning on working or streaming from your room, this could be a significant drawback.

Despite these setbacks, the rooms were clean and comfortable, and we appreciated the modern amenities and overall atmosphere of the hotel. If WiFi quality isn’t a top priority for your stay, the hotel still offers good value, especially considering its prime location.

Ludicrous charge

I haven’t mentioned specific prices or room rates;
There is no profanity;
I haven’t referenced any personal information.


If you’re going to censor my comments below, which are factual and truthful; in favour of the hotel, then it’s clear to me where your priorities lie and you’re not interested in your users/customers experiences.

This, and the huge change to your Rewards Program, is going to have a negative impact in the way I use your service going forward.

Take a look at my account, and my past and future bookings. Do you really want to lose my business? I use hotels every single week, but I’m happy to go elsewhere to book.

You need to remember, there are other hotel booking services out there that are either on a par, or better than yours.
———————————


I've heard of hotels charging a supplement for a single use occupancy of a double-room, but I've never been charged a supplement for having 2 people stay in a room. Specifically when that room is designed for 2 people to stay in!
Ludicrous and another scam.
Probably won't use this hotel (or chain) again.

Not bad but not the best

As you walk in the hotel is well presented, nice lobby and bar area.
Staff were ok, the usual hello not over and beyond.
Bar and breakfast area was clean and well presented.

The room itself was dated and can be done with a makeover.

Otherwise, it's not a bad stay.

I DO NOT RECOMMEND this hotel at all.

The air conditioning did not work. We notify the stuff immediately. After 4 hours there was still no solution. We notify again, and again, no solution.

Finally, at 10:00 pm, after we showed our strong dissatisfaction, they offered us another room. However, the air conditioning in that room would turned itself off every two hours.

We went to this hotel to get a much needed sleep before a ten hours flight but left there more tired than we were before.

If you want to test, stay away from this place.

Good hotel

Stay here once a year for easy access to train station to London. Hotel also has parking. Room comfy with what we need for a short stay. Breakfast always seems chaotic on the weekend we are there waiting for table and waiting for breakfast items to be replenished. The downside of the room which i mention every year the room safe is on the floor and not accessible to some of us.

The hotel offers excellent service and the staff is very accommodating. There's ample parking available. However, the property appears slightly outdated, and the rooms are somewhat small, likely due to its prime location. Additionally, there were noticeable scale stains on the faucets, which could be easily remedied. Personally, I'm not a big fan of carpets in hotel rooms. The carpets here seemed worn out - a thorough steam cleaning of the carpets in each room would significantly enhance the comfort level of the hotel. Despite these minor issues, my overall experience during my 3-night stay was very good.

One night only the Watford Experience

Arrived at 8.35pm after just over 2 hour drive. Had booked dinner for us but restaurant closes at 9, felt a little rushed but it was nice enough. Our room was cold when we got there no instructions for the warm air heating could be found after several minutes of trial & error it eventually worked. The facilities in the room were all good. Would have liked some complimentary biscuits with our tea & coffee though. Overall a nice overnight stay.
