    If you are going to Harry Potter studios with kids then do stay here! From the outside, a tired, shabby semi in london suburb. From the inside, a magical flat perfect for every Potter fan. The details were perfect, toys and decorations all potter themed including salt and pepper cauldrons, and net curtains with quill design. Loved the balloons and cake for my son’s birthday and tea and biscuits for us. Thank you - so thoughtful. We watched potter films all evening dressed in robes (supplied!) it was wonderful.

    The inside of the hotel is designed excellently and has a bar, place to eat deliveroo food, and space to relax. The rooms are also well designed and the lock of the place is lovely! Bed was huge and super comfy. Most importantly the staff were absolutely lovely; excellent customer service and you felt a pride in what they were doing - it’s their welcome that made the stay! 5 mins walk to a road with lots of great places to eat. We had space to park at the hotel which was great too.
