Had a recent two night stay here and really enjoyed it. Met with a very friendly receptionist on arrival . While room was not huge it was spotless and very comfortable with good quality toiletries , coffee/tea / hairdryer, good TV. One thing I think could be improved on is a Non-slip Mat in the bath as I found it... More

Just returned from a overnight stay at the Firs Hotel Hitchin, we were greeted with a friendly receptionist who was efficient and nothing was to much when we asked her some questions. As the weather was not very good we decided to have our evening meal in the hotel restaurant and was a very high standard at a reasonable price.... More

Somewhat dated décor but clean, tidy and very friendly and helpful reception staff. Lovely powerful shower. Breakfast was not cordon bleu, but plentiful and tasty. Great location for Hitchin and to access local attractions.

Thank you for completing a review. I am sorry you found your room overheated. All bedroom windows at the hotel can be opened. Some bedrooms have velux windows in the roof, and one room upstairs has secondary glazing which can be pushed back to access the window. All bedrooms also have thermostats which can be switched off. I am glad... More

On a previous visit to Hitchin we stayed at The Priory and were disappointed. This time we decided to try the Firs Hotel and were more than pleased with our choice. Our twin room was spacious, clean and comfortable, the bathroom was freshly decorated and a selection of toiletries was provided. The electric shower was powerful but VERY loud, as... More

We stayed at the Firs Hotel in December. The hotel is very conveniently located for Hitchin town centre and the local area. It has a great car park, is warm, clean and tidy and the breakfast was good. Everyone working at the hotel was kind and friendly. Not a bad word to say: overall good :-)
