Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the Green Man was mostly delightful, especially after a rather stressful travel experience. The room was charming and spacious, but I was disappointed by the noise from the restaurant during the evening and the lack of storage options in the room. The staff was exceptionally accommodating, which made a significant positive difference to my experience. However, be aware that the dining options in the hotel might be limited if you’re not staying in the main property.
My stay had a mix of ups and downs. While the location is incredibly convenient for access to Stansted Airport, the cleanliness and upkeep of the property were lacking, which significantly impacted my experience. The service was decent enough, but I expected more from what was billed as a boutique hotel. Overall, it might suit someone looking for a quick overnight stay due to its proximity to the airport, but it's not the ideal place for a longer visit.
My experience at the Green Man Boutique Hotel was quite disappointing. The cleanliness was lacking, with unmade beds and a damaged window upon check-in, and communication errors led to confusion about our room location. However, the atmosphere had its charm, offering a characterful experience. I cannot recommend this place, especially considering the issues we faced upon arrival.
My stay at the Green Man turned out to be quite the experience! I was pleasantly surprised by the charm of the hotel, especially the cozy rooms and the attentiveness of the staff. However, my dining experience left a bit to be desired, and some minor hiccups with service impacted my overall impression. The location was a real bonus for getting to the airport easily.
My experience at the hotel was quite mixed. The location is ideal for those flying from Stansted, but the room was uncomfortably small and had a musty smell. The dining did not meet my expectations as the food quality was lacking. While the hotel has potential with its character and charm, it is currently overshadowed by several significant issues, especially with cleanliness and service.
