The Ivy House, Chalfont St Giles

The hotel had small yet cozy rooms with tea and coffee-making facilities, but the lack of air conditioning meant traffic noise was a drawback. The service was welcoming and friendly, making it a highlight of the stay. The location, despite being noisy, was convenient for specific purposes. The dining offered good coffee and tasty evening meals, although coffee refills were lacking. Overall, the hotel provided a mix of positives and negatives.

The hotel is conveniently located for our needs, even though it faces a busy road and may be challenging for those sensitive to noise. The rooms are on the smaller side and can get warm without air conditioning, leading to some road noise disturbances. The lack of space may not be suitable for guests who prefer larger beds like a king size. The service is warm and welcoming, with pleasant and polite staff members. The location, although ideal for our purposes, may not be easily found using GPS, and the hotel's position at the back of the building may not provide the best views. Dining experiences, while delayed at times, are satisfying, especially with freshly cooked breakfast options. The facilities are adequate for our stay.

The hotel had both positives and negatives. The rooms were a bit on the warm side with a small size, but having a fan was helpful despite the challenge of regulating the temperature. The service was a mix of warmth and efficiency, with some staff members being very pleasant while others showed less interest in our experience. The location was convenient for our needs, though being close to a busy road was a downside. Dining offered some excellent options but had limitations in serving times. Overall, a mixed experience with both good and not-so-good aspects.
