“so NOT a small luxury hotel of the world”

Angel Posting House and Livery

15 Sep 2006
4/5 found this review helpful

It was our anniversary - I wanted it to be special. It wasn't - our very over priced room looked over the high street - .. a police car sat outside with blue lights flashing until after midnight .. and it was SO noisy.
The room was tired and scruffy - paint peeling off the edge of the bath panels, uneven tiles on the walls, uneven floor surfaces,. The sofa in our so called luxury suite sat on top of the plugs and stopped the table lights from working.
I'd booked as a surprise for my partner and unfortunately it turned out to be not a good surprise.

And add to that the most comical "Lurch"-like character at the bar who took our order without a word and then kept patrolling back and forth through the bar area to keep an eye on us (we are in our 40s and civilised!!) - and never a civil word...

We did have a good time - but it was in spite of the hotel and certainly not bcause of it. I put the fun down to our sense of humour - we needed it!
My advice - find somewhere else!!

We three adults and one infant enjoyed a delightful stay at The Angel, and found the staff always ready and willing to accommodate in every way. They couldn't have been more hospitable! Rooms were beautiful, comfortable, and impeccable.

Dont waste you time and money.
Overpriced.
Grumpy staff.
Not worth the money.

7/8 found this review helpful

Hotel was okay, but it does not deserve five stars or £150 a night. Inital impression of room (Sir Francis Drake) was favourable. Closer look showed that "view" was into the side of a pitched tiled roof, one window looked onto a small flat area into which rainwater drained that was full of cigarette butts, there was a three inch hole in the bedspread and the canopy was held up by the sort of supports that you use for cheap self-assembly book-shelves.
Having said that, we appreciated the bottles of mineral water, huge comfy bed, lovely big bath and shower and big fluffy bathrobes and towels. Also the staff were friendly. The central location is great, but you cannot park near the hotel - we were only staying one night and were pre-warned so we had minimal luggage and parked on outskirts of Guildford, but this would be a problem for a longer stay/more luggage. But at £150 a night, I would not have a long stay there - it's not worth the money.

We stayed here on our wedding night and were given an extremely warm welcome and great service.
The hotel is beautiful, the bathroom was enormous and the bedroom superb.
Couldn't have asked for more on our wedding night, a wonderful end to a memorable day..........thank you!
