Won’t be back
We were in room 1. Although, the radiators were not on , the room was far too warm. We opened the window and then had to put up with traffic noise. We discovered next morning that the boiler is in a cupboard in the bathroom which was why the room was so hot. The bed was small and uncomfortable and the pillows very hard. We had a really bad nights sleep because of the above.

Beautiful place
Amazing stay, lovely staff, well appointed room, etc. Our only gripes were that it was very hot in the room - which was easily remedied by opening the window - and that there was only one vegetarian option on the menu. But it is a lovely place, and an amazing location for walks, and mooching in the town.

Good hotel, disappointed with the TV
A very nice historic pub, with spacious and clean rooms. The bathroom was large and nice, as well as the breakfast being very good. I was disappointed for the price I was paying, for the TV I was provided in my room, hence the lower review

Superb
We were in Great Missenden for a friends 50th and decided to stay here instead of the conference centre at Missenden Abbey and I'm so glad we did. I can't speak for the dinner as unfortunately, we arrived a bit later than we were expecting so didn't have time, which was a disappointment as the menu looked fabulous and if the breakfast is anything to go by I'm sure the quality of the food would have been amazing. Both my wife and I commented that it was the best breakfast we've ever had in a hotel, high quality ingredients cooked to perfection. The only note for improvement would be that perhaps they could have some vegetarian sausages on standby for people who don't eat meat (like my wife) However she did have the rest and they put some wilted spinach on her plate which she said was absolutely delicious. The room was a good size, the bed was comfy and everything including the bathroom was scrupulously clean. If I'm ever remotely near the area again I will definitely be staying there.

Compact, comfortable with great food
Room and bathroom both compact, but generally very comfortable with useful additions such as water in the room. Bed was excellent. Shower was slightly annoying as it ran cold for one second every 10 seconds. Nice and quiet when we stayed midweek in October but I would be concerned about potential noise from any events in the teepee just outside our room in the summer. Dinner was excellent the Roast Cauliflower was awesome -so good i had it again the 2nd night. Breakfast was great and included fresh warm croissants!

So near yet so far
Unable to make tea in the room, fantastic nespresso machine but not generating water hot enough to brew tea. Food was excellent and ambience in bar/restaurant is good. En-suite needs some attention, water temperature in shower varied. Very convenient for our needs Overall, some minor improvements/ maintenance would vastly improve the experience.

Notification change
Hotel, amazing! Only one query on my confirmation document from hotels.com it said on the total amount payable ‘collected by the hotel’ As I booked a long time ago, reading that made me think I had already paid for it. Not a problem having to pay for it, but could you please make it clearer and change the message to ‘to be collected by the hotel’?
