Knoll House Hotel offers a delightful retreat surrounded by nature, where the charm of old-world architecture meets the needs for a modern update. Wifi - or should I say no wifi, Trying to stream anything was an exercise in patience and perseverance. Room itself had a connecting door to the other guests... very noisy The check-in process is test of patience - 4pm check in.

Great hotel, horrible room
The hotel is great. It is old but and needs renovating but ambience, food, location, service are all top notch. The room we were given was 101, so called garden suite. The room was very old and smelled of mold. Our allergies flared up and we couldn’t sleep all night. There was no wi fi in the room. Bath drain was not working properly and it flooded while showering. The heat turned off at 9pm and it was cold during the night. This was a suite and the pricing was according to it status (actually quite expensive). We won’t stay in this room again even if they offer it for free. The hotel though; we might come back but make sure we don’t get this horrible room again.
