Best Western Homestead Court Hotel

Very good

Good

Liked: staff were very good, breakfast also was good.
Disliked: Part of the hotel was closed to the general public.

A place in the green.

Liked: Quiet location in a green area not far from the town. Comfortable room with a little patio. It was perfect for our need.
Disliked: Nothing.

An Amazing Find!

Liked: The rooms were perfect! An amazing find!! We were allocated rooms in the annexe, and the room were the Charlton, Ramsey and two others. Each room has a small kitchenette with microwave, hob and fridge freezer (absolute bonus). An on suite shower and toilet. With a small range of crockery, glassware and cutlery (no pans for the hob), an electric kettle with a range of hot drinks. It was clean and airy, with openable windows over looking the park, but equally very quiet. It had good air conditioning, lighting and plugs located in the right places (so often not the case) and by the bed. There's a good amount of storage cupbords, luggage racks, ironing board and iron with mirrors in the appropriate place. Free carparking and a swimming pool too. Friday to Sunday there are no meals available, but there is a pub and parade of shops within a 5 -10 min walk. There's Pappa John's, a fish and chip shop, a CO-Op and more. All were very easy to find a meal which we brought back and heated in the microwave! We sat outside at the back of the hotel in the lovely, peaceful gardens with our meals in the evening and had a lovely time. I'd arranged breakfast for Sunday. On arrival I asked if we could have it promptly at 8am as we needed to be away by 8:15/8:30. The team were ready and waiting with a warm welcome, and the breakfast choices both hot and cold were excellent.
Disliked: It took some time for the hot water to come through in all of the showers on Sunday morning, but it did come through in the end.

Very poor

Wouldn't stay here again.

Liked: Very friendly, helpful reception staff, personally showed us to our suite offering to carry our luggage. Immaculately clean building, suite had everything you could want. Fridge, sink, microwave, TV, desk, chairs, wardrobe, bedside tables with lamps. Comfortable double bed, plenty of clean, fluffy towels, eco friendly body/hair wash. Very good breakfast (paid extra) cereal, fruit, fruit juice, continental and English breakfast, (eggs cooked to order) good choice if hot drinks from machine. Good location for visiting the area (Battle Proms concert at Hatfield Park) and other attractions. Hotel located in a residential area so a few pubs within walking distance. Plenty of free off road parking.
Disliked: Other areas of the hotel are occupied by asylum seekers, although seem to be housed in different areas away from paying hotel guests. Although we did not encounter any problems the situation felt rather intimidating due to the presence of young men smoking around the outside of the building. I personally would not feel comfortable staying here if I was travelling alone, (just my opinion!)
