The Barrington Hotel

room and bathroom haven’t been cleaned at all, only bed was changed and clean.

Very nice and convenient

Easy booking in. Staff very helpful.

Yes, it could’ve been a bit cleaner and yes, I was disappointed that there were few facilities eg kettle, but for my purpose the convenience was perfect for me. And it’s literally across the road from a Costa Coffee so it was ok.

No kettle in room (despite listing saying there was). Arrived at 7.45pm but couldn’t get any food as kitchen had closed (expected a gastro pub to serve until 8.30 on a Saturday!). Went down to the bar to have a cup of tea before bed but couldn’t get one there (despite sign outside saying pop in for tea or coffee). Very noisy, every door banged. Booked for 2 adults but only got 1 hand towel and 1 bath towel in room. Sign outside says it’s a B&B but no breakfast available - can’t even get a cup of tea or coffee in the morning - staff looked at us like we’ve got 3 heads when we asked. Stinks of weed everywhere, even in our room as chap was smoking it outside for most of the night.

Booked twin room got a small double No bin in room (not enough space to put one anyway) had to buy toilet roll, bad drain smell,

Is excellent and comfortable

The wifi was pretty bad, and i think the power went out during the night because of the storm, but the staff were amazing, the room was clean and comfortable and as a solo traveller i felt super safe 👌

Upon arrival at the car park, there is a car with its windows smashed, with broken glass and blood everywhere. It feels unsafe everywhere, even when you're in your own room. Rooms are located above a pub, that suddenly becomes a nightclub at around 10pm. You can hear and even feel the loud banging music and people screaming in the rooms until 2am. Then, at 8am the music starts again. We got almost no sleep and checked out after first night and ran for our lives.

Bed was comfy but thats all it had going for it. Checking in staff at bar didnt seem very happy. Room was extremely basic, blood or orange stain on towel. Only 1 towel for two us. Shower door didnt close, Extremely noisy until around 2am and the smell of cigarettes poured in through the windows. Okay as a bed to sleep in if your at a concert so you get back late.

The room stank of cigarettes and was not clean. There was dust everywhere, yellow-brown dripping stains on the ceiling of the room and wall of the bathroom, and I found loads of hair on the shower wall that had not been cleaned. Also, if you have an issue when the pub is closed you will not be able to reach staff. They have an emergency number and email that is on a sign in the room but nobody will pick up the phone or reply until the pub is open anyway so there is no point. My key for the main entrance didn’t work so I just had to stand in the rain and wait until another guest heard me knocking and let me in.

Overall very poor. The music from the bar was far too loud until very late. Staff were poor - one staff member who checked us in was helpful but all other staff were unhelpful and quite rude. Room was very hot with no A/C. Power all went off in the night with the fire panel beeping consistently since early hours and nothing was done and no apologies/explanations from staff. This resulted in no hot water to shower in the morning and no lights. Our bathroom window was also situated directly above the smoking area which was less than ideal. All doors to get into the property were extremely difficult to use and we had to rely on other guests to help us figure out how to operate them rather than staff.

The room was small and was noise with all the music down stairs in the bar

Photos online are misleading the room was tiny as soon as we open the door it hit the bedside cabinet Photo shown on our booking was a larger room with a sofa in what we got was a tiny room with one old pub chair and a small table in front of the wardrobe very cramped towels were dirty

This is a no-frills hotel with none of the usual things you’d normally expect like tea making facilities etc, but having said that I checked in early with no problems, the young barmaid who assisted was friendly and helpful, the room was quite a good size and the bed was comfy and the sheets clean, and the shower was as good as anywhere with a good flow and hot water. Free parking too. Our room was on the top floor and was very quiet, but since the hotel is above a lively pub i guess other rooms may not be. Short walk for transport to central London

Nice and cheap great pub friendly staff and welcome with a free pint, food also very good, couldn’t be more helpful

The Barrington is situated in High Barnet about 10 min stroll from the tube station - northern line giving great access to London. The area surrounding was nice with lots of places to eat. The hotel was clean. The bathroom was not great, it had no privacy glass and with quite a low window any plans to have a shower or use the toilet had to be done in full view of oncoming traffic. We were only given 2 towels (1 bath towel 1hand towel) with 2 of us using the room for 4 days reusing the same towel during a heat wave was grim. We left early each day before the pub had opened so I left a note for a second towel; unfortunately nobody came to clean the room in those 4 days. A blind needs fitting in the toilet of room 8 and more than 2 towels needs providing for a 2 person room. Other than that a pleasant enough stay.

This is the worst hotel I’ve ever stayed at. Clean sure but poor service delivery. Zero value for money. Paid almost 60£ for this closet room with a tiny bed and there’s nothing in the room except a big tv. The room is so tiny I can barely stretch my arms. Nonexistent service. Internet doesn’t work. I think they are better off as a pub.

Check-in was easy and quick. Initial impressions were good and the room was a good size, although later having seen inside the door next door, which was empty for the duration of our stay, it was bigger, with a better layout. The room has nice blinds, but they do not block out anywhere near enough light; and being mid summer, it was light just after 4am. There’s a thermostat on the wall, but no visible signs of any heating or cooling appliances apart from a radiator. We were provided with 2 towels, one a hand towel and the other only slightly bigger - not good enough for two adults. And finally, because it was a hot night, we tried to sleep with the windows open, only to have people sitting in the smoking area talking until gone 5am. Our experience was so bad, that we ended our stay early and didn’t stay for the second night.

Clean and comfy, 10 minute walk from the tube, perfect.
