Stayed for 2 nights in this hotel. It is a old listed building. Average hotel. Room was dated.The bathroom was very smelly and there were no suitable rooms for us to be swapped to. Breakfast was excellent. The location was perfect to attend a wedding in Froyle. The free on site parking was a big bonus. Would recommend for a couple of night's stay.

Very good value for 2 days B&B and very friendly staff. Only area of slight concern were where stair hand rails met the wall and a nip was created.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Alton House Hotel, and I can’t recommend it highly enough! From the moment I arrived, the staff were incredibly welcoming and attentive, making sure that all of my needs were met. The room was spacious, clean, and beautifully decorated, providing a comfortable and relaxing atmosphere. The bed was especially comfortable, ensuring a great night’s sleep. The hotel’s location is perfect for exploring the local area, with easy access to nearby attractions. I also had the chance to dine at the hotel’s restaurant, and the food was absolutely delicious—both breakfast and dinner exceeded my expectations with a wide variety of options.

We were welcomed into the property and directed to our room. Room was clean, tidy and spacious. We tried to use the shower but it wouldn't work properly temperature wise for us to be able to use it. We didn't have alot of time to report it at the time as we were running late for a family party did to traffic problems travelling up. The room appeared quiet until noisy residents came back and made alot of laughing and banging of doors.

Two day break
Had a good stay, room was ok but a bit grubby, hook broken on door, outside chairs were broken and very grubby as was the table. With a smelly full ashtray in the middle which we moved away but was put back still full the next day. We did not get the 10% loyalty discount as we booked on line, which was a bit odd. We have stayed there before. The staff were friendly and helpful.

OK but plenty of room for improvement.
Room number 1. Adequate but no more. Very tired room.Tiny wall mounted TV. The bed has seen better days. The worst thing was the bathroom. Clearly designed for disabled visitors which is fine but the shower was cold despite being left to run for a while in the hope it might warm up leading to the whole bathroom floor becoming wet and slippy. Needs a new mixer valve and floor drainage improving.
