思博温酒店(Sopwell House Hotel)

Brilliant service, dedicated staff, beautiful food and and very relaxing and calm

This was my second stay at Sopwell House and I enjoyed it as much as the first time. The decor and cleanliness were outstanding. We loved the spa facilities and the food in the restaurant - delicious! However, we were surprised to find ourselves locked out of our room when we got back to our room after breakfast on checkout day. It was just after 11am and we felt this was a bit heavy handed. Also, unlike during my first visit, I was unable to get a plus size robe which would have been more comfortable for me.

Very clean, Some staff excellent others need further training on manners Unfortunately we came at a time when buliding work was talkibg place so very noisey at timea also they we taking down a tree for 2 days outside my room window

The staff and overall facilities were excellent. The team on reception couldn't do enough to help. We also left some clothes at the hotel and they forwarded these to us by courier a few days later. Amazing service.

All staff were welcoming, friendly and very helpful. Food was fantastic in both restaurants! Beds were really clean and very comfortable. A real tonic that my husband and I needed!

I really enjoyed my stay but it was slightly soured by the spa and fact that I was not really made aware that the better spa which they now call CLUB was £120 extra per day per person until I got there. That means that it was £700 a night if I wanted spa access and 1 evening meal, way more than the Grove. The hotel charges a very high rate anyway for a usual 4 star, so its expected to receive the higher-end facilities included that are pictured all over the website which was what made me book there. A bit of false advertising I think and that's why it felt slightly sour. Even no entry with paying for 2x massages at £260 which is way more than massages at a non-spa (and one massage was not good anyway, too soft and every time I asked for a bit harder with her hands as she barely touched me, she reminded me that I 'should have chosen a deep tissue, but I just wanted a firm Swedish and paying that she should have adapted). The staff overall were great and that's why I overall enjoyed my stay even with the spa issues and high prices overall, special thanks to Rachel on front desk who was very nice and helped me have a special stay for a special time.

I always have an impeccable experience staying at Sopwell House. Staff are great, attentive, very accommodating and well versed at keeping guests comfortable and relaxed. Cannot fault the facilities - restaurants, spa, lounging areas - all are amazing. A special home experience away from home and I can’t wait to return again.

One night stay only to attend a 60th birthday party in St. Albans. Had a drink in the bar and then a meal at Omboo…was excellent ! Did not make use of the Spa unfortunately. Will most certainly return for a two night Spa stay at some stage.

Nice room, good selection at breakfast. Pool, sauna and Jacuzzis are good. Felt a little awkward walking through hotel to get to spa in dressing gown but everyone does. Only let down was being told that room wasnt ready when we arrived and having to wait until 15.20 to get access to the room.
