We were very happy during our 4 night stay. Located near a railway track, the noise didn’t bother us. Rooms very clean and the staff were lovely during check-in and the duration of our stay. Nice are and a 5 minute walk from Tower Bridge. Highly recommended.

Verified traveler

Spent time working in pubs with my friend and not being much of a regular tourist. But I like the town. Much more relaxed than London, but only 25 minutes away by train.

5/5 - Excellent

Verified traveler

There's a lot of history in St. Albans, dating back to the 700s and even a little earlier. It was an old Roman settlement back in the day called Verulamium. There's now a large park named after it, and also a museum about the history. Highly recommen

4/5 - Good

Didn't see much of it as arrived in the night stayed only one night then left the next day just after 9 am. So actually I saw St Albans when it was asleep.

5/5 - Excellent

Great City to be in just outside London. Oldest Pub in England the Fighting Cock, great food and atmosphere. Historic Cathedral just across from the Hotel. Market day every Wednesday just up the street, can purchase one of a kind designs.
