surprised by some of the comments on this hotel. It is a Travelodge, so one expects it to be basic as you do not pay a premium price. We found what we expected for a Travelodge, we have stayed in a few if we just want a cheap family overnight stay and OK, this one is perhaps a bit dated,... More

...seriously, pay for the parking (£3.00 overnight) and stay in your car. I mean, how uncomfortable could it be to recline the passenger seat, attach the neck pillow, and snooze? You wouldn't have to be refused entry at 14.20pm to your room because check-in prior to 3pm is £10 extra (not offered at time of booking) even though "my" allocated... More

We booked 2 rooms and both were dissapointing although generally clean they were in a bad state of repair and the toilet would have benefited from a dose of bleach and in both rooms the taps were badly marked with limescale , havent they heard of cillit bang !!!! The £4-50 breakfast box was a waste of money.The ample parking... More

For £30 for a night's stay I wasn't expecting the Rirz, but I was expecting a reasonable room with comfortable bed, crisp bedsheets and towels, tea/coffee and a clean bathroom. And that's what I got with room 102. No there weren't any net curtains, one of the lights didn't work, and the walls were devoid of pictures, but it was... More

I was not at all happy with the room I was given and did not stay there, choosing to drive home instead which was exhausting. Upon arriving at Hemel Hempstead Travelodge, we found we had to pay a three pound charge for the car park. On our way to reception we past an incoherent person who was totally out of... More

This is without doubt the worst hotel I have ever had the misfortune to visit. We booked online taking advantage of a weekend deal as the hotel was close to some friends who live in the area. We arrived at about 9.30pm and obtained the keys from a really nice lady on reception. The room was disgusting and stank of... More

You expect and know what you get at a Travellodge - expect this one. Dirty, horrid, in a state of disrepair, uncaring staff Don't expect any toilet roll of tea / coffee at this hotel if you stay a second night - they don't service the grotty rooms Never again !!! Written complaint and email complaint sent. Terrible really doesn't... More

Nice powerful shower and quite are,well that's the good points I stayed 13/01/13 and was appauled if I had not been tired from my drive or getting ready for the early start I would have walked out. Stained lamp shades grotty sink, crisps or chips on the bathroom floor ill fitting sheets a carpet that had not been vacuumed and... More

Stayed one night Sat 5th Jan 2013. Like most travelodges, the room was clean and tidy. Good shower in this one too. Ideal location for Harry Potter studio tour. Car park adjacent was only £3.00 for 24hr parking.
