Located in a training centre, this country house in wonderful gardens gives the impression of grandeur & luxury in the public areas. The rooms are spartan - reminiscent of student digs - but functional, though it was impossible to open the window or turn off the radiator in my room, which lead to the staff having to turn off the...

I recently attended a two day wedding at the "Node" but was concerned before hand having read recent reviews. However,my own view was ( and I am fussy ) that the whole experience was excellent from start to finish.

Overall a good value hotel. The Node is located just outside Hitchin in a semi rural location. The staff are very friendly (which always makes a difference), the hotel grounds are very well kept and offer a peacefull setting and the rooms are a decent size. The breakfast is good and the serving staff are again very friendly. The only... More
