I've just returned from my 1 night stay at the Hotel Hatfield. I was a bit dubious of staying here after reading some of the reviews, but I needn't have worried. Check in was hassle free and we went straight up to our room. Granted the floors creaked a little and the bed was a bit hard, but it is... more

The room booked was listed as the Superior Double also known as the Suite....boasting sea views,four poster bed,jacuzzi....The view was very disappointing...windows filthy on the outside impairing views not to mention window not really designed for views. The bed was lumpy but ok...the best bit was probably the jacuzzi lol... Now if your discussing the food and the restaurant...you will... more

Breakfast was average and not very filling to an American. Some of the rooms had tub/showers, but one had only a very small shower. Would check out... more

This hotel was booked by another hotel in the Best Western group for us for onward travel the next day . Despite having the faxed confirmation of the type of room for our stay with us when we arrived at the Hatfield we were shown to another room which because of disability was much too inaccesible. It would appear that... more
