“Hounslow is not for me!!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 May 2011

We arrived at the skylark and were greeted very nicely. At first thought we had found a very good deal for the money after the basic tour. The hotel was clean and the majority of the staff very pleasant and helpful.
All was well until the morning. We were advised that breakfast would start at 7:30, so waited in the kitchen area from 7:15. 7:30 came and went - still no sign of staff to begin breakfast. I went to reception and waited there for a good 10 minutes ringing the bell, then was greeted by a Chinese lady of which spoke very little English. (this lady was in the kitchen area the whole time but gave off no impression that she were staff).
40 minutes later breakfast was made (1 sausage, 1 piece of bacon, 1 egg and about 10 beans - accompanied by 2 pieces of moldy white bread) - not impressed. Due to the time taken to make breakfast we missed our taxi (that was great fully booked by the hotel) so had to book another one without canceling the pre booked one as no staff around to help.
Having a cigarette in the garden, approached by a shabby member of staff asking if we had one spare ( on two occasions).
We left for Thorpe park in bad moods and late.
Return back to the hotel hoping to have showers - shower holder was broken and we had one less towel in our room than when we left. All towels were fresh but wet. The effort was there.
All in all, not to happy with lack of service & communication available. Also, hotel full of what I think to be staff, I think it's just family of the hotel wondering around aimlessly. Wouldn't recommend. Sorry.

Room Tip: Don't stay in hounslow!

“inadequate bedding, what breakfast?, but friendly staff”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 January 2011

Friendly staff, reasonably clean room, but the bed had a very small and flat pillow and a rather thin comforter. Initially the room was over-warm, due to being above the office, but after the office closed, the room became quite cold in spite of the heater. Sleep was fairly elusive anyway due to the New Year's fireworks -- not the fault of the establishment! -- and the raucous passers-by, but as I had to get to the airport, I arose early anyway.

Breakfast was problematic. Advertised for 7:30 on the weekend, I was there at 7:20 and made myself a cup of tea. At 7:35 or so, the friendly young lady in charge arrived, but then spent ten or fifteen minutes cleaning the breakfast tables and mopping the floor. She did put some packaged bread on the counter, which I ate, but made no move toward making any hot breakfast, so I gave up and left around 8:00. I was in no mood to argue, nor could I afford to wait another 30 minutes. One expects to eat at the advertised time, not sit and wait for the place to be cleaned.

“Bad Hotel with an even Worse Attitude, Never Again!”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 November 2010

Room booked and paid through Travel Republic. Reception denied all knowledge of booking or payment. Was eventually resolved. 1st room, dirty with stained bedding and inoperative TV. 2nd room marginally better. Fee was inclusive of breakfast. Waited from 0700 to 0730, no one arrived to either cook breakfast or offer an explanation as to why there would be no breakfast that morning. Very disappointing. Hotel kitchen and dining area were frequented by what appeared to be permanent residents making themselves at home in clearly designated "Staff only Areas". Desk was manned to answer any queries. All of the "permanent residents" were very obviously anti outside guests and the whole atmosphere was very tense. Not a pleasant stay, could never recommend this hotel to anyone. Waste of time, effort and money.

“Excellent Place To Stay & Good Value for Money”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 17 September 2010

Cosy rooms with laid back homely atmosphere. All rooms have television. Family run B&B, lovely late Victorian house restored in keeping with its original character. Beautifully furnished rooms. Close to Hounslow West Station and Hounslow High Street. Many restaurants and pubs. Wi-Fi available, Full English Breakfast. Excellent transport facilities with direct lines to all attractions and airport. I really enjoyed my stay and got every that I was told that I was going to get.
