8/10 Very good

1 night business stay. The property is an older property with creaky floorboards and a few stairs internally between various levels. The room was nicely presented and the bathroom had a large walk in shower, everything was very clean and comfortable. There was tea/coffee making facilities in the room and TV on the wall. The hotel had a good sized private car park at the rear of the property. There was a nice fresh cooked breakfast available together with some cereals etc. On the opposite side of the road is the local football teams home ground so this accommodation would be very useful for any travelling fans. The hotel is close to a small park and nearby open lido and leisure centre. The main supermarket is a 10min walk away and the main town centre is 15min walk to a range of bars, restaurants etc. Overall a very enjoyable stay and would stay here again in the future if I was in the area.

Hotels dated but the ladies take great care of you. Free parking and a breakfast included. No nonsense old school BnB. Hitchin town centre is very good too. Plenty of eating places and pubs.

4/10 Fair

would not stay here again
Hotel was noisy due to traffic from road located 6 ft from window and from doors banging throughout the night. Accommodation was basic on arrival i noticed that the sink contained someone else's hair "which were Curley!. i mentioned the noise to the hotel and they told me that they were fully booked but the car park was and remained empty?. this was a dated hotel more like a traditionalB&B. personnally i would noyt stay here again especially as i stay in this area frequently and know that much better accomadation can be sourced.

Lovely hotel,
Lovely hotel, just out side town so quite at night. Staff are friendly and helpful, rooms are simple but clean and comfy. Ours had a squeaky floor but added character to place. Breakfast included so made a really good price.

Enjoyable stay at the Firs
The Firs is just a short distance from the centre of Hitchin and located in a quiet area. The room was large and clean and had all the facilities that we needed. The bathroom and shower were both excellent and the residents lounge was large and welcoming. The staff were friendly and happy to help and the initial reception was good. The breakfast was good with the usual cereals, fruit juice etc. Overall I would happily stay there again and have no reservations recommending it to others.

Nice hotel. Not very modern but clean and everything worked great. The staff were nice and the breakfast was really good. Very convenient for a walk into Hitchin which is a nice market town. Enjoyable stay.

6/10 Good

Felt interrogated for bringing partner!
Very old fashioned guest-house feel to this hotel. Was asked quite curtly if my partner was staying with me on check in, as apparently I'd only booked a king sized bedroom for one! Not sure hotels.Com had made this clear and did feel very awkward and old fashioned. Price therefore increased an extra £10, perfectly reasonable as included for breakfast, but I haven't been asked for room occupancy details since the 80s, and I'm not sure things have changed at the Firs in all that time. Room very clean and comfortable, but honestly felt like the rest of the place is very dated.
