About this property
This property is a Georgian Country House Hotel. Guests can enjoy a delicious afternoon tea, stroll through 12 acres of gardens, and relax by the main leisure pool. Central London is a 40 minutes’ drive away and 30 minutes on the train. Free WiFi is available throughout the property.
A 14-metre pool with poolside relaxation areas and a gym and fitness studio are some of the leisure facilities you can enjoy at Sopwell House, which also boasts a steam room, two vitality pools and a sauna. Access to the Club at Cottonmill Spa facilities is available at an extra cost.
The bedrooms are spacious and elegantly decorated, with a flat-screen TV with Sky Sports and tea and coffee making facilities. Complimentary Elemis toiletries and a hairdryer are available in the private bathrooms.
Please be advised that as Sopwell House is a Georgian manor house, all bedrooms and suites are individual in their layout and size, so whilst rooms in the same category have the same generic benefits, individual configurations may differ. Guests should know that the room image shown online for a particular category may not correspond exactly to the room they receive when checking-in.
Sopwell House Hotel has a Brasserie restaurant serving breakfast, lunch and dinner, while showcasing the finest of locally sourced ingredients and a celebration of comforting British classics, reimagined with a creative twist. For dinner, Omboo offers a sharing experience inspired by the spice routes of Asia and the Far East. Light meals and hot drinks are available in the Conservatory Bar and Octagon Bar is open into the night.
The property is 1.3 miles from St Albans Abbey train station.
