Hitchin Priory Hotel - A historic venue with landscaped parkland, business-friendly amenities, and proximity to Hitchin town

Steeped in history dating back to 1317, Hitchin Priory Hotel offers a quiet retreat set within acres of landscaped parkland. The property features 15 meeting rooms accommodating up to 90 people, along with a marquee for private functions. Rooms include Freeview TV, tea and coffee facilities, and free Wi-Fi, with some offering courtyard or lake views. Guests can enjoy freshly prepared afternoon tea with homemade scones and finger sandwiches at Hitchin Priory Hotel. The hotel is a 20-minute walk from Hitchin town center and 5 km from London Luton Airport, with nearby attractions including St Mary's Church (0.5 km) and Hitchin Lavender (3 km).

Pros

The historic building and landscaped parkland provide a tranquil setting.

Proximity to Hitchin town center and London Luton Airport offers convenience.

Meeting and event facilities cater to business needs with ample space and equipment.

Freshly prepared afternoon tea includes homemade scones and finger sandwiches.

Cons

No on-site restaurant is listed for regular dining options.

Some rooms may overlook inner courtyards rather than parkland.

“What stands out is its position near Hitchin centre, blending accessibility with the calm of extensive grounds. The building itself has character, with original features adding to its appeal. I noted the staff's attentiveness, particularly their inclusive approach and the consistently high standard of the food served.”
