Overall Ratings & Reviews The Chiltern Hotel

Was only staying for a quick cheap stop on the way to London for a late check in and early start. Disappointed as the bar closes at 7 and that was one of the factors we decided to stay as we could just pop the bar when checking in for a quick drink before heading to bed for the early start. Price reflected hotel, room and decor but suited what we needed bar the bar being closed which was expected to be open.

Clean and adequate but no dining facility

Worst hotel i've stayed in, in my life and i work away most weeks. It started with check in where i was asked for my driving licence so he could make a copy (never been asked for that before). Then told reastaurant was closed although its advertised as breakfast and dinner restaurant (arrival time 6.45pm). The bedroom was dirty, the shower door fell off when i tried to close it, the bed was so hard and lumpy it was like sleeping on a wooden door. Lots of road noise because window wouldn't close properly. Needless to say i wont be booking in anymore even though ivl've just landed a big contract very close by.

Easy parking, quick check in, excellent stay before our flight from luton.

Staff at check in to be more experienced and polite to visitors

For the price very good place

The stay was overall disappointing. When I arrived, I was told I could not check in due to "computer issues" and that I would have to wait. This took around 20 minutes to resolve, and even then was only rushed because I prompted the receptionist. The corridors smelled of smoke, and felt like a construction site in parts. The room itself smelled of smoke too. It was dusty, with a large amount of dust settling on surfaces just overnight. The room was cold on entry, as the window had been left open. The bed was comfortable, but that was the only plus. The shower tray was missing too.

It was an amazing stay and the staff were friendly.

Am sooo hapyyyy room is very clean and safe place

Helpful staff

This hotel should not be allowed to be open to the public, it's full of homeless people, refugees and when we came back to get our car as we didn't feel safe leaving our car their so we didn't even stay, the reception area was taken over by about 20 people praying on their mats and looked insulted we had walked in. Disgusting hotel and not a safe feeling at all.

We had two rooms and it was one of the worst experiences I have ever had in a hotel. Had to be moved multiple times because tv didn’t work. Then the new room had hairs all over the bed. Faeces on the bath towel and for some reason around the window. It felt extremely unsafe and was confirmed the council are also housing people there. The windows wouldn’t close. Because of the cleanliness I couldn’t even have a tea I’m the morning and had to stand there for an hour naked drip drying because of the towels were covered in faeces. Hotel confirmed this was disgusting and would refund. but now no one is taking accountability and I still don’t have the refund.

I book hotels that have a gym which this one said it did, on arrival I was told they don’t have a gym, I had to order food from outside. The furniture in the room looked ready for the tip they had a desk but no chair to sit at the desk. I was ready to walk out and book elsewhere but your policy on booking was non refundable. Disgrace!!!!

Really noisy neighbours (other guests). Not sure if this is a migrant hotel, but the guests were not very considerate, didn’t speak or understand English and were quite rude tbh. Stayed here for 2x 4 nights visits and will definitely NOT be staying again when in the area!!

Very poor. Bedroom did not have plug in sink, hairdryer, chair in bedroom, toilet roll holder. Lighting dreadful in room and no way to turn lights on or off without getting out of bed and walking to the door. No way of adjusting temperature in room.

This hotel should genuinely not be open to the public as it is clearly currently being used for housing refugees.

I didn't actually stay the night in the end after checking in and going to the room it was clear the hotel needs alot of work it's old dirty everything is dusty or covered on marks honestly the single worst hotel experience I have ever had I actually couldn't bring myself to stay I then booked into the Travelodge up the road

Awful This is a grotty hotel and is used as a homeless housing placement - People have to live somewhere but this hotel shouldn’t be sold as a 3 star with restaurant and bar and there isn’t either. A bit of an experience and didn’t feel safe tbh

Unclean, smelt profusely bad and no facilities was usable. Very disappointed in the hotel as online it appeared exquisite. Could not get a drink or a meal. All closed when i returned from the hospital at 9pm No staff around. The double bed was 2 singles pushed together. The bedding was soiled and also the towels. The hotel smelt very foisty

Very fair price and friendly staff. Good transportation links
