Stayed at Ponsbourne Park as friends held their wedding reception here. It could be a great, trendy hotel but obviously its main use is as a conference facility and it shows. I don't think anyone would stay here as a holiday destination! The rooms in the main building are large and have decent facilities - flat screen TVs, good storage,... more

We stayed here for 2 nights for some friends' wedding but I'll refer only to the hotel rather than the facilities provided for the wedding. The location is very good and the building looks very impressive as you drive up the road towards it. We were staying in the main building and the room was fairly spacious and clean. The... more

We stayed here for just the one night for a friend’s wedding. The hotel was very nice overall. First impressions, upon check-in, were very positive. The location is very remote. Don’t think there was anywhere you could have walked to – maybe 1 pub? The hotel grounds were really nice and you really knew you were in the countryside. The... more

We were very disappointed in this hotel. The original building is attractive but, as has already been said, an ugly annexe has been added. The windows in all of the public rooms were filthy, a hook in our room fell off the wall as soon as we hung something on it and was not repaired during our 3-night stay, some... more

As you sweep up the drive to the hotel reception you're met on one side by a very grand Hertfordshire country house and on the other side by some pre-fab classrooms. Its a cross between a country estate and your local comprehensive school. Apparently the hotel is run at some level by Tesco's - their Head Office is nearby and... more

The Ponsbourne Park Hotel proved to be so much more than we expected. We needed to stay in the vicinity for two nights and stumbled across the hotel by chance. The website actually doesn't do it justice - it certainly did not convey the high standard of service that took our stay in this well appointed hotel to an exceptional... more

Very good wedding venue in pleasant countryside. Everything went smoothly and to plan. Superb food, and very good service with the wedding breakfast, and breakfast the following morning. Pleasant grounds for guests to stroll through, and pleasant public rooms. Good master of ceremonies. We were pleased with the decor and facilities in our bedroom (in the main building), but were... more

It's difficult to fault the previous review. This is a Tesco training centre, and any pretence to being a four star hotel is long gone. On arrival the hotel had lost our reservation, and rude and unhelpful reception staff were only interested in getting rid of our party to some other hotel as quickly as possible. We were eventually and... more

This pile should remain what it actually is... a training center for Tesco Supermarkets, and not advertise itself as a lux 4 star country hotel. Buyer beware, the setting is impressive but the check in staff were rude, there is no help with luggage, no porters, no concierge, no nothing infact. Even the swimming pool was closed... (on a hot... more
