Rating & Review Keseluruhan The Bird In Hand

Our go-to hotel if we need somewhere to stay before a Heathrow flight. The staff are all very friendly, food is excellent (both dinner and breakfast), plentiful parking. We stayed in an executive room this time - we liked the extra space and would book this again. Last time we were there we were helping some friends who had suffered a tragedy that day, and I managed to knock over a large G&T. Even without knowing what we were dealing with, the lady behind the bar calmly cleared up the mess and sorted a fresh one - no charge and no judgement. We really appreciated her kindness.

Nice rooms, great food,really friendly staff

Second visit, great room, clean, good coffee in the room, parking on site. My only gripe on this visit is the mattress was awful, I could feel the springs through the mattress.

I am not sure how a hotel can justify a double room at £123 without breakfast and then charge £5 for a small bottle of water in the room. Staff were friendly and room was large and clean but whole place needs an update. Evening meal was overpriced mediocre pub food. Would I book again, doubt it.

Great hotel, traditonally decorated room but comfortable and spacious. Great food in the pub downstairs and helpful staff.

Excellent place, food, room, staff all great

A very good b&b pub. Good facilities, clean and good bathroom. Cost of evening meal a little high for the quality.

Accommodation was excellent. Beautifully decorated room and well equipped with tea and coffee, fresh milk, water and lovely toiletries. Could not fault room. Very good choice for breakfast which we enjoyed. Dinner was not so enjoyable and we didn’t feel it was value for money. Staff all very polite and friendly. This is a great place to stay.

This is a great place to stay, very comfortable rooms and the food is excellent. Great value for money as well.

This was the loveliest little night away with my daughter. Drinking tea and listening to Classic FM in a big, comfy bed was the literal dream. My only observation was that the towel rail was hotter than the 9th circle and I stupidly burnt my arm.

I liked the friendly staff and the delicious restaurant.

I have enjoyed staying at this establishment in the past, but unfortunately, it feels like it's going downhill with little effort being made to maintain the high standards it once had. During my recent stay, I encountered several issues that were quite disappointing: No remote control for the TV: This made it inconvenient to use the television. Carpet with signs of spillage: The carpet had numerous stains, indicating a lack of proper cleaning. Flickering light in the bathroom: This made using the bathroom quite challenging and uncomfortable. Showerhead and bar not fit for purpose: The shower setup was inadequate and difficult to use. Unprofessional repair work: A noticeable and poorly executed repair suggested that maintenance is being handled by someone inexperienced in DIY. Given these issues, I regret to say that I will not be returning.

Really nice pub, good food and drink. Nice rooms, well maintained. The only negatives were that the matress on my bed was really uncomfortable, past its best by a long way. Also, the price of the food was too high for what it was, very nice but a checken burger is not worth £18.95....

Excellently run, proper Inn.

(Stayed in Room 2) Firstly the food was absolutely fantastic! I mean wow, wow, wow. Devoured the lot! 5* for the food. We would happily come for dinner again and again. The room was pleasant, clean and the bath was lovely and spacious (could fit two SLIM people satisfactory). Loved the tea selection and mini fridge compliments as well! However, when you opened the cupboard with the ironing board, a smell of mouldy cheese comes wafting out (so I quickly closed that and moved swiftly on) we booked for a king size bed but instead got two single beds pushed together!? Essentially trying to create the illusion of a king size bed… but a terrible idea when you have a crack in the middle between you and your loved one. The bed was uncomfortable, overly bouncy and springy and lacked any sense of comfort so we didn’t sleep great at all and woke up feeling stiff as a rod the following morning so I wouldn’t recommend staying overnight, unless you are willing to pay for a luxury room. However we would highly recommend going for dinner.

Nice room, service and food. Staff was courteous and professional.

What a good find, beautiful decor, friendly efficient and attentive staff. The food was first class.

The pub is on a busy road but the room was set back from the road and there was no issue with the noise. Plenty of parking available. Unfortunately we stayed on a very hot night, and even with the fan provided we struggled to sleep. The room was very small and had strange plug sockets.Tea & coffee making facilities in the room were good. We chose to have dinner at the hotel and were both very pleased with our meals. We found the older staff to be more attentive than the younger ones, who were more interested in chatting to each other. 25 mins from Heathrow - overall a good option if you don’t like staying in airport hotels, just not on a hot night.

Stay was very nice clean rooms breakfast was amazing

Very nice place to stay. The food and drink was excellent. Just a little more expensive than some of the other nicer places we stayed in.
