The White Hart

Pros: Great location if you’re visiting / doing business in Ampthill. Great food and drinks downstairs. The staff were always friendly, helpful and welcoming. Cons: no on premise parking. Closest parking is a municipal lot…10 pounds for 24 hours. When I checked in my room was made up as 2 singles instead of a double as requested. Beds were a tad small & uncomfortable. Walls are thin, I could hear my neighbors “chatting” until midnight the night before I was planning on checking out. Otherwise it was a great stay

Cosy hotel, staff were very friendly

The staff were really lovely and friendly and helpful

Stayed because I was visiting friends

Great place to stay. Staff Friday evening into Saturday morning couldn’t have been nicer. Well located and breakfast was great too

Excellent stay but property looks tired. Needs carpets cleaning but otherwise lovely stay

Good location, staff is friendly and welcoming, our check in hostess Phoebe was very helpful. Can be very noise up until 1am due to events over the weekend. Basic amenities like shower gel/ body wash missing. Rooms are a bit on the smaller end and can have better cleanliness

Very old building, uneven floors gave it character. Very steep steps up to the accommodation level though. No parking, though I thought there was (I guess I misread the information about this place), nearest parking was just round the corner and cost £8 overnight, i.e. 24 hours. This was recommended by the staff when we arrived, not knowing where to park. Next day I asked at nearby Waitrose about free parking and they helpfully pointed out several on-street free parking marked bays which were only about 5 mins walk to the hotel, which we were able to use for the remainder of our stay. I would suggest the staff might have mentioned this possibility and given us the option.

I planned a stay for my girlfriends birthday and it wasn't what I paid for. First off the service was absolutely excellent.. we had dinner there and the service was top notch. But the room wasn't what was advertised on the website, the room didn't look anything like what I thought I was paying for. It's more of an inn than a hotel as when we got to our room we could hear the loud noise from downstairs at the bar. It was so bad we had to checkout at 10pm and find another hotel. Apart from the great service and staff I was very disappointed with the room.

Amazing stay would highly recommend

Lively piv with good bar and excellent food

A really nice room, spent two days working nearby, it was an excellent hotel.

Lovely ancient pub in centre of town. Very close to Millbrook. Great service from manager.

In this period of hospitality staff shortages The White Hart seems to bucked the trend and recruited superb staff. We were very impressed with all the staff we came into contact with at the property and in particular the girls at reception. Very efficient and helpful check in. We were attending a function close by which was not easy to find from the postcode. They sourced directions, booked a cab, then chased the cab when it was a few minutes late and appeared with an umbrella whilst we were waiting and it began to rain. She really was very impressive. The restaurant and bar staff also very friendly and efficient. Great breakfast with lots of food options to cater for all tastes. Would recommend for anyone attending a wedding or function near by. Very nice bathrooms, iron and even hair straighteners in the room.

Really nice clean hotel. Staff were very friendly and attentive. The pub below does really great food in the evenings and for breakfast.

This is more of a pub with rooms than a hotel. It's been refurbished well and is certainly an historic building, but there were some maintenance issues (leak from shower that couldn't be rectified, AC unit clicking noise) that possibly should have been addressed before check-in and the staff helpfully allowed me to move rooms. No particularly obvious Covid preparedness beyond the use of disposable paper menus and the poached egg was a catering one rather than from a real egg. It was probably an off-day, that happens. But I'd take a little persuading to return I am afraid, certainly at the price charged (although everywhere is expensive this summer!)

The hotel was situated in a lovely area, great breakfast options! Bathrooms were lovely too! Wpuld definitely stay again.
