St Michael's Manor Hotel - St Albans

Absolutely fabulous hotel! It was beautifully decked out with tasteful Christmas decorations, gorgeous Christmas trees and festive wreaths and fabulous illuminated figures in the welcoming foyer. As for the staff…….. Roberto, manager, was one of the best as were his reception staff, Ellie and Lara. So helpful and cheerful. Don’t ask what could be improved because it was the BEST!

We had 2 nights here to get away for a couple of days. The hotel is really lovely, in a beautiful setting beside the lake. It is tranquil and quiet which is just what we wanted. Room was nice , everything as expected. We ate in the hotel restaurant and had a lovely meal. We wanted to eat in the restaurant both evenings ,however, there was an event going on the second night so couldn't go in the restaurant so were forced to go out. We could have had a table in a side room but didn't fancy eating on our own! The hotel did telephone us a few days before to let us know about the event and asked if we wanted to join it but we declined. We just wanted to have a calm, quiet evening. Any event, wedding etc is held in the restaurant. Overall, a lovely place and would recommend to anyone but if you want to eat in the restaurant I would say to telephone them 3 days before to check if any event is being held in the restaurant ad you could then change your booking date if you are flexible with dates. Which is what we will do when we come again. We will come agin soon

Lovely lunch, had the set menu which was exceptional value for money. Had a lovely table, overlooking the lake so such a pretty setting. Our server Hepy was very sweet and took great care of us. I’d very much recommend it for a couple’s lunch and there were tables in having afternoon tea which looked delicious!
