This was my second time visiting Hempstead Hotel and I was so glad to have returned. The welcome from staff is always lovely and very clean. My room was a wonderful size which was immaculate throughout. The bottled water is always nice to have along with ample biscuits, tea and coffee. I like to go out to the cinema which is only an eight minute drive. The breakfast was wonderful; smoked salmon and scrambled eggs cooked to perfection. I didn't feel rushed and gladly took my time to saourr every delightful moment. I visited the gym and sauna which were clean and tidy throughout. The extra bonas of the stay for me is that you really can make a full weekend of it as check-in at 3pm but you can arrive at any point of the day you are staying to use their amenities and the following day check-out is at 11am, but again, you can stay until 5pm!! Delightful stay and so reasonably priced. I shall vary much look forward to my stay again in the near future!

Perfect relaxing break with excellent spa/ staff.

The staff are exceptionally nice and always cheerful. The spa is extremely good with a quiet swimming area, jacuzzi, steam and sauna, as well as an excellent massage and facial. It was perfect for a relaxing weekend and very good value.
