The noise in this hotel is horrendous it goes on til 1am slightly toned down between 12-1am had the tv on loud but could still be heard over that had to buy earplugs but i could still hear the noise from below and it starts again at 11am when the pub opens. If you like a cuppa take your own only 1 teabag and 1 sachet of coffee each and the milk is in a fridge down the hallway which is very inconvenient. It is a lovely room and comfy bed and good location for town but unfortunately the noise far outways all of this. At £110 per night and NO breakfast not value for money.

Fitted well for a short stay in the town.

I booked 3 nights here, I come to this town regularly as my son lives locally. This is the nearest place with accommodation to where he lives so was looking forward to the three night stay. It was most definitely NOT worth the £120 a night. No parking and no breakfast included in that. The first room I was given was dirty, cobwebs everywhere, cup rings still on the bedside table, dirty floor in the bathroom, black mould on the windows and really dirty curtains at the window, so I went to see the staff, thankfully they moved me and the young lady was lovely about it. I definitely expected more for the price. I moved to another room, it was better, beautifully put together, with a bath in the bedroom, but not great. I could see that a lot of effort has been put into the fixtures and fittings in these rooms but it’s sadly lacking some major TLC. It could be amazing. I only stayed for two nights not the three that I’d paid for, I just left, I didn’t want to stay another night. The music noise from the pub below is quite loud too, (but it was turned off at 11pm). I would consider that if you plan to stay here. My stay was midweek in January so cannot imagine the weekend in the summer. I had booked to stay here again in April, this has now been cancelled. I will go back to where I have stayed before, 3 miles out of town but guaranteed to be clean.

it was easy to check in the room was delightful and the landlord and staff all very helpful. well worth the stay. the location is convenient for everything.

Superb room with great bed and sheets. Bar and restaurant onsite is superb and a huge plus. Staff are super friendly and accommodating. FYI there are no taxis waiting if u arrive by rail so plan for that.

The parking status was not clear. There is no onsite parking and I don’t think you can say parking is included if you are having to use a public car park a few minutes walk away. Apart from the parking it was a decent property for one night.

Quite noisy as room overlooked marquee and music though quite a civilised gathering and it looked pretty with lights and flowers and cocktails! Inn has been well renovated with quirky fun interiors. It is very comfortable and very clean. Would definitely stay again.

Newly renovated! Great for a night or two in harpenden

Gorgeous room which was very clean and comfortable. The staff were friendly. The food was lovely. Would definitely stay here again.

Shame the parking and breakfast is no longer available, friendliness of the young lady checking me in and during my stay.

great room well serviced, loved the bath!

Great room service, no breakfast, room was a bit cold, but the bed was amazing

Nice pub with modern, well furnished rooms. A lot of noise from the busy road in the front facing rooms. Fire alarm (set off by someone's steamy shower we subsequently discovered) went off at 6am and was still going when the fire engine arrived almost an hour later. No sign of a staff member during this period.

Clean tidy room with a very comfortable bed. Very good town centre location. I was a bit surprised that breakfast is not provided (a very good cafe is suggested 5 yards from the hotel) but I may have missed reference to this in the booking information.

We stayed here for 2 nights and had a lovely time. Leah who ran the B&B was super helpful, and gave us yummy breakfasts every morning which set us up for the day. In a beautiful location pretty much on Hadrian's Wall there's plenty of things to do locally - walks and running routes straight out the front door.

The room was lovely, clean and comfortable. The staff were friendly and efficient, accommodated us considering they were very busy and fully booked! Loved it and will return if we're going that way

This property and the staff were very nice. The noise from the bar did not bother us. However the air conditioning unit at the top of the stairs was very noisy and was on all night which did not make sleeping easy.

Fabulous room and lovely decor in the whole place, loved it :)

Lovely room, friendly helpful staff .

Lovely bar -restaurant, friendly staff (girls not boys) single glazed rooms a little noise , limited parking

Our stay was very pleasant, the rooms are in a self contained area immediately next door to the pub so there is no direct access. Check in is at the bar. The room was modern, clean and comfortable with good towels and toiletries plus the usual tea and coffee provision. Despite being on a busy High Street the room was very quiet as it was at the back overlooking the churchyard.There is free parking in the rear yard, a bonus in this busy town. I didn’t manage to work out the WiFi, ask at the bar when you check in. The recommended breakfast cafe looked good but we were going to friends so didn’t go there. The pub is well positioned in the middle of the High Street so an excellent and varied selection of shops and restaurants are minutes away. A minor niggle was the kettle which didn’t reach boiling point for tea, I couldn’t find anyone to tell before we left.

No electricity this morning therefore no coffee, no TV and no hairdryer. Sheets and towels were lovely.

The staff were very helpful, however the overall presentation and cleanliness lets the place down. The Old Cock Inn is a wonderful historic building in a great central location, but the decor is tired; with ripped carpets and peeling paint, stained toilet pedestals and sinks. Just a little TLC would make all the difference.

We stayed here due to attending a nearby wedding. WiFi didn’t work. The room itself was fine, bathroom a bit tired and £90 for the room seemed a bit steep. Doesn’t include breakfast but there is a great cafe 2 doors down. Chap behind the bar that showed us to our room was nice and helpful.

Was perfect for where we wanted to be. On first look everything was great but carpets quite marked in both hallway and room, bathroom not as clean as it should have been. Served its purpose as somewhere to sleep.

Stayed at the Old Cock for a weekend meeting old friends. It is an old coaching inn, so a pub with rooms. The room was very pleasant and comfortable with a large bathroom en suite. Clean, tidy and comfortable. Staff were very hospitable and friendly. A great pub.

The Manager was very helpful and went beyond the call of duty to help us. would highly recommend.

A pleasant stay, noise-free, helpful staff. I was given immediate access to the room by the bar girl and could settle in early. Unfortunately breakfast was not provided, but a good café was two doors away. Monday, when I was there, was also a non-meals day in the inn, so I had to look elsewhere for dinner. Water was hot, with good bath and shower facilities en suite; gel and shampoo provided.

Small room - no heat when we arrived. No breakfast availability- not mentioned on their booking page.
