“This 4-star property, nestled in Hitchin's heart, immediately impressed me with its sixteenth-century building, striking the balance between history and comfort. La Bella Vita, the hotel's fine-dining restaurant, adds a touch of sophistication, while spacious, well-equipped rooms promise a relaxing stay. It's a solid choice, especially given the free parking.”

The room featured a king-sized double bed, complete with a memory foam mattress. The en suite bathroom looked modern. The room included a large flat screen tv and fast wi-fi. The entire place seemed super clean.
The corridor door remained open, affecting security. There was no main desk, and checking in required going to the burrito shop next door. This process felt disorganized.

king-sized bedmemory foam mattressmodern bathroom
the room was a converted part of a 17th-century coaching inn (so cool!). it was huge with a king-sized double bed and a memory foam mattress. the ensuite bathroom was surprisingly very modern and very clean, as was the small kitchen.
no negative aspects to report, i enjoyed my stay!
