Amersham is a lovely little village.............the hotel is in a good location within walking distance of most shops and restaurants............the hotel serves up a great inclusive full English with toast etc..................they do lunch , but not dinner, but there are many pubs and restaurants nearby........adequate heating in the room, so we were not cold in Feb...............dog friendly at no extra charge............we ate dinner at the Griffin, which is a muddy stiletto awarded restaurant, and had outstanding food and is was 5 mins walk from the hotel....the pub is an olde world pub, and was very charming, with friendly bar staff and customers

The location of the Inn and the friendly staff. So kind of Rob for helping us with phone calls and letting my relatives use his phone to contact me. I had Cell phone issues. The Inn had a local feel to it and provided walkable and enjoyable outings. Especially the Memorial Gardens across the street. The breakfasts were large and we enjoyed the traditional English fry up! There are also some nice restaurants near by within walking distance. The courtyard is cute and it was nice to sit out there for a bit when the weather was good.

Firstly, the location is great. Right in the centre of the old town. Full of beautiful, old, charming buildings. The Saracens Head Inn is a wonderful, traditionally British pub, complete with low beam ceilings and classic British pub bar, stools, chairs. We haven't been back to the UK for more than 5 years and we absolutely loved staying in an old Inn, reminiscent of growing up in rural Gloucestershire. The actual pub area brought back memories of working in a pub a few decades ago, cleaning the brass, washing glasses, clearing the beer drip trays. Love that smell. Full of friendly locals having a pint and chatting about their day with staff who were engaging and happy. The room we were in was very spacious, lots of space for a good size double bed, a couple of comfy chairs, full length mirror, place to hand your towel, wardrobe. Coffee machine as well as a kettle. Good size teacups, plenty of supplies and absolutely delicious biscuits. Everything thoughtfully put together.Good size showerroom with full body size towels and complimentary toiletries. We were very late to breakfast, and realised we've probably missed it. However, the chef made us a delicious bacon and sausage sandwich and plenty of tea, coffee and orange juice. Very grateful he still made sure we had a good breakfast. I forgot to ask his name, but he was very friendly, helpful and clearly a hard worker.

Quaint historic pub built 1530. Very authentic place with flowers everywhere and outdoor seating. We stayed in a twin courtyard room no. 3 which had an ensuite shower, TV, tea, coffee, biscuits and free toiletries. Comfortable beds and plenty of sockets. The full English breakfast was included in the room rate. The bar/ reception staff were lovely and Mario cooked us a perfect breakfast.

The location was within all local attractions. I read some reviews before booking with such remarks as there was no vegetarian breakfast and heating not working. Well, I had a vegetarian breakfast with no complaints. It was just the best. The heater in my room was self regulated and no problem. It’s an historical hotel with an interesting history.
