Wendover Arms Hotel

I am reviewing the parking and property management company the Wendover Arms hotel use to monitor there car park. I was dropping off my partners son who was booked into the hotel. I failed to register my car as the signs were not noticeable . I received a parking penalty charge of £100. Although i appealed, the parking company nor the hotel were interested and i had to pay the charge. The parking and property management company are only out to make money and not working in the interest of the hotel. Beware

stayed several times before on this visit the tv was broken and on advising recption we were asked what we were going to do ? Reversing that question and putting it straight back to hotel staff then eventually the room was changed. gave a stale taste if honest as was uncomfortable

Room needed decorating bland walls with child’s pencil scribble on the walls . No breakfast I thought I had booked . Staff were cheerful helpful and professional.

Firstly the positives The hotel has a good location, plenty of free parking (register your registration however) and the staff were polite and helpful. The hotel looks to be undergoing some refurbishment and the block I stayed in is relatively new (some fittings were left on thr floor in the block. Some comments on this 1) hallways need clear signs to direct you to the correct floor for your room 2) rooms - I stayed in 19, some points for improvement - no furniture in room, could do with a wardrobe to hang your clothes, a bedside cabinet, and a chair - I ended up having to put my stuff on the second bed, not possible if there are two of you. No plug sockets near kettle area - ended up balancing kettle on radiator No shaver socket in bathroom Mismatched cups and poor presentation of coffee/tea items No bath mat for shower. Would suggest not putting soaps in paperboxes inside the shower cubicle storage area - end up getting wet Food - No restaurant currently active on site

We stayed at the Wendover Arms for 2 nights and were very happy with everything. The staff were friendly and helpful and although the rooms were on the small side ours were all en-suite and were very modern and spotlessly clean. A 15 minute walk to the town centre where there was some lovely bars and restaurants. We input the wrong registration number into the car park machine in error but the hotel staff were helpful in correcting it when we realised many hours later. I think recent reviews are harsh - the hotel is clean, location is good and price was very reasonable.

Lovely hotel and lovely location with shop close by and a lovely little pub tehrr too for people to enjoy its easy to find and very close to the station and the new build is very nice just wish rooms were cooler

This was perfect for 1 person staying over for business. No frills but comfortable. The only odd thing was the almost complete lack of drawers or shelves in the room. Also, there was a coat rack with no hangers.

Room was quite small but most importantly the bed was really comfortable and enabled a good night's sleep. Bathroom was clean and shower had good pressure. Only gripe might be the thinness of the pillows. I needed three.

We and the couple that arrived immediately after us were sent to an alternative hotel on A40. No apologies and from the size of the alternative hotel cards at reception it is evident that this is a regular occurrence. There was no apology or explanation from the hotel staff. Buckingham hotel was still under construction. You couldn't get in and out of the car park without someone running to reception to ask to lift the barrier as there is no intercom. Room was very dusty, bed extremely uncomfortable and there was previous guests' dirt left in the bathroom sink.
