From when we arrived, the car parking was good with plenty of spaces. The staff were welcoming and very friendly and helpful. We were upgraded to a deluxe room which was great. The room was spacious with excellent facilities. I would definitely stay here again.

The hotel is a little tired but the rooms are large and well equipped. I chose an executive double room on my last overnight stay, and was very impressed with the difference from a standard double for not much extra cost.

Lovely room, lovely staff, great value. The room looked recently refurbished and was super clean and comfortable. Staff were friendly and effective. Public areas gorgeous. Honestly, I think they should probably put their prices up!

The room was OK. The bed was not too comfortable. We had what we needed and for the price it was acceptable. Things could be improved. For example there was nothing to save a slip in the shower. No handles or mat. No toilet brush. No cup in the bathroom and no mirror. The same guy was serving at the bar, doing check in and organising breakfast. He was very pleasant and helpful. The hotel entrance was charming and the lounge seemed very cosy. Breakfast was very basic, at least there were some pastries, otherwise it would have been very boring. All in all it was fine for the price

Hotel is just starting to come back to life after being used as an emergency accommodation facility. Minimal staff but they were so helpful and friendly. Awful smell in the reception and bar area, suspect carpet needs a professional clean….and the vacuum cleaner they’re using needs changing as it’s pumping put stinky air. Shame, as the OPL was a truly prestigious hotel once, beautiful building, I really truly hope she can recover and get her former glory and reputation back.

Building and gardens were lovely. However, our room was absolutely boiling hot and when staying with an infant, made us very uncomfortable. There was no fan provided, the windows barely opened and to cool my son down, we had to put his travel cot into a bathroom. The lifts were out of use and no ground floor rooms were available, despite us making it clear we had an infant on the booking and would need a pram. The corridors were very narrow and when making our way to our room, it was very difficult with an infant, all the bags and other people having to all use one staircase. My partner was certain he saw breakfast included in the price, but no mention at the hotel either.

Not a hotel

No bar, no restaurant, lift doesn’t work and full of families living in the rooms. Staff were really nice and the room was actually nice but it’s not a hotel. 90% occupied by people living in the rooms whilst awaiting being housed elsewhere. That’s fine but should not be advertised as a hotel on hotels.com!

Not a great hot

Hotel was boiling hot, room was very hot and basic, for an executive room. Just a bar of soap in the bathroom, although reception gave me a shower gel when I asked and supplied a fan for the room. Shower was awful would only adjust to boiling hot or freezing cold. Front of house staff were friendly

helpful staff very good value

staff are great and helpful the only issue i had was other family guests of a minority background letting there kids run around and bang about until quite late, but to be very fair to the staff due to an issue with my room lock (which they sorted) they did offer to move me to a different room. all i actually did was turn up the TV a little loudwer than i normally would

Room size was good and clean but pretty dated. No electric points nor light switch near bed. Electric points were in odd places. Drawers in room instead of desk to sit at. Bed was comfortable enough but walls pretty thin - could here music and snoring from rooms next to me. Walk to room was pretty long and lifts out of order. Made for a tiring trip from car to room with baggage. Staff were warm and friendly.

It’s clean and the room was in good shape. Front desk person was nice helpful. That said, it looks like a lot of the rooms are longer-term rentals. There were several children playing in the parking lot and running around in the lobby area. I also saw toys in some of the ground floor windows, indicating that people were living there. While the room we stayed in looked recently updated, the lobby is pretty rundown. And the restaurant and lounge are closed (with refrigerators and microwaves in what I assume was previously the dining room—probably for the tenants). It’s too bad because it looked like it was a really cool hotel/tavern/restaurant at a previous point in the past. Not planning on ever being back in this area, but I wouldn’t stay here again.

Very pleasant, recently renovated hotel in a quiet location in Dunstable. Rooms were clean and comfortable, bathroom was great. Only downside (for a recent reno) - no USBs in the room. Almost everyone carries a USB rechargeable device these days, and it's remit of hotel not to provide USB ports, and require us to carry an adaptor. Also, my room had no bedside lights whatsoever and no way to turn off the room light from the bed. Currently no food or drink on site. Though there are walkable options.
