8/10 Very good

Very decent overnight stay - Recommended

The room was fairly small, and quite basic, but the price was also very reasonable considering breakfast is included. Everything was clean, and everything worked, so as purely an overnight stay on a budget it's pretty much ideal. Not noisy, even though it's over a pub. TV good, shower works fine, comfortable bed, and the breakfast in the morning was also very good. They don't do a full English (fair enough at this cost), but have hot eggs and a very good spread on the continental side. Recommended.

Excellent stay, I had a compact but functional ensuite single room. The continental style breakfast was very good with lots of variety. If I'm in the area again I will definitely stay again.

Nice little pub

Very nice staff, unfortunately it was one of the most hottest nights of the year, no fan in the room and couldn’t sleep, not the hotels fault but a fan in the room would have been a help, but again nice pub and nice staff

Kevin & Friends Fishing trip

Had a lovely relaxing stay. Staff / management were friendly, welcoming and attentive. Atmosphere in bar was great with plenty of friendly locals. Room was clean and comfortable and breakfast more than sufficient with a wide range of cereals, juice, cheese and meats along with toast, crumpets and croissants. With off street parking and a large outdoor seating area. Great value too. We will definitely be back

Warm friendly staff but if looking for comfort and more than one night stay then not really the place for you Met my needs for a short stay with no frills and if that’s what’s needed then not a bad choice Breakfast basic and again no frills

Not happy!

Dirty cobwebs in the shower space, mouldy paintwork, dirty sink plug. No curtain in the bathroom which faced the beer garden! Bedside lamp and only socket in the room was near the foot of the bed. Car park motion light was above the external door which was next to the back door to the pub! I did a video but couldn't upload on here. The staff were great but the venue itself wasn't good at all.

8/10 Very good

This is a local no-frills pub with a few rooms for accommodation. It was ideal for our overnight stay. We had a few drinks in the bar, had a brilliant spicy pizza ( cooked to perfection) and enjoyed a pleasant conversation with a local worker. Breakfast was plentiful with food to suit all tastes. The bed was very comfortable and all programmes on the tv were accessible through TNT.

This was the perfect place for me to stay while visiting family near by, Nigel and everyone at the Rifle were welcoming and helpful. If you’re looking for a clean, affordable “room at the inn” this comes highly recommended.

Very comfortable. Would stay here again.

Clean, friendly 2 night stay with good breakfast options (tea, instant coffee, cereals, yogurts, fruit, poached eggs, cheeses, deli meats, breads, croissants & crumpets). Room was spotless. Bed comfy. Shower good. Free offroad car park. No real ale but good locals pub up the road was recommended by Nigel the owner of the Rifle Volunteer.

Really friendly staff who were willing to stay late to accommodate my delayed check in. Clean and comfortable room with facilities and standards that match the price. I'll be staying here again.

Nice accommodation option very close to Ware town

First stay here, pub has great choice of beers, room was small but clean, en suite was fine. Some of the other bedrooms were bigger than ours so will try and select them on our next stay. Excellent value for money and we would stay here again
