Stay here a lot for work. It's the kind of hotel I like, not a dull chain or a snobby establishment. Staff are good, place is clean, food and bar are nice. Free Wifi a bonus when working away and the Gummy Bears are a nice touch! The only downside is breakfast service is sometimes slow, not to the same... More

Stayed here a few times before but my most recent visit consisted of a Lovely meal, friendly staff, beautiful room (honeymoon suite) .....would definitely recommend. Reasonably priced and for a three course meal it was only £19.99... Look for deals on website.

Have stayed here a few times with work and it's refreshing to come to a business hotel (or one with a business focus) which has some character. I love the smell of the wood from the log fire as you enter the foyer/bar area which you don't normally get in most hotels. The service is efficient with some staff being... More

Sadly disappointing stay. On arrival at about 4pm we waited several minutes in an empty reception. After enquiring at the bar where staff were we were finally checked in. Sleeping on the first night was impossible with loud music playing until after 1pm and ongoing noise until 2am. Breakfast the next morning was in a small room which was full... More

We stayed at The Old Palace Lodge for one night March 2013 and were thoroughly impressed. We had 2 toddlers and had a family room which was spacious and well equipped. The purpose of our stay was a celebratory 60th birthday meal in one of the function rooms, this went very well, with the room being decorated nicely and food... More

We stayed with our 20 mnth old twins and nothing was too much trouble. We were made to feel very welcome. We had room service due to the... More

We stay at this hotel once a year; excellent service and value for money. This is a hotel that is investing money, you can see improvements every year. Having said improvements, it is a good hotel to start with, the investment is not dealing with issues but making improvements for its guests. Breakfast: excellent ingredients; well done on this point.... More

The room was a lovely size with a large bathroom all spotlessly clean..a really comfy bed and... More

A quality hotel of great character, somewhat strangely located in drab Dunstable. Superior room was very good, warm, comfortable bed just getting to be a tiny bit dated but perfectly OK for a short stay. Staff were all very well trained, extremely helpful and cheerful....delightful change from the usual tepid East Europeans in many hotels. We attended a birthday function... More

The rooms are ever so slightly tired the place feels like a proper hotel rather than a budget chain of rooms. Staff were very helpful and very polite rooms were more than adequate and nicer than they needed to be. Excellent value for money too. If there is a negative I would say that the fixed shower is to low... More
