Very smooth and efficient check-in by a friendly young lady, comfortable room with excellent shower over the bath. Good restaurant for an evening Meal and very good selection on breakfast buffet. Comfortable sitting areas and good parking.

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.
Nice enough hotel, it seems. The room was very pokey and in the roof. Stains in the wall beside the bed (an old liquid spill) stain in the carpet, peeling furniture, Velux blinds didn’t shut properly so the light got in early morning. Terrible mattress and the shouting from the car park, which sounded like a domestic fight, that wasn’t dealt with by the hotel and went on until gone 2am made the stay a pretty poor one.

Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort
Would not go again
The breakfast was not very good, it was cold and the crockery was very dirty. I asked for some clean bowls and I the lady said they were clean but they had brown marks I wiped off with tissue on so that put my children off eating breakfast.
The family room was ok apart from one of the pull out beds it was tiny but luckily the night porter got another single mattress for us and we put that on the floor.
It was very very hot and hard to sleep as no air conditioning and the fans just blew the hot air around so I wouldn’t go there again.
Beautiful house when you walk around it just not the best to sleep in for a family.
Enjoyed staying at Alton House again, staff are helpful & understanding, and it is an ideal location for visiting family and easy rail travel into London
Nothing really good or bad about the hotel. Double room was basic but clean. No power or USB by the bed. Small tv stuck in the corner of the room, not visible from the bed. Staff were friendly.
