to get started.

The room was clean and the location was ideal as I was there without a car. It was a short walk into the centre of Bishops Stortford.

The room was great, for Europe, a big bathroom. All the interactions were great, super welcoming. The pub didn’t serve food, but offered recommendations of places a short walk away. This was our overnight before a Stansted flight, wished we stayed longer!

Joseph

The amazing staff and atmosphere! Perfect location!

Heather

United States of America

I always stay here, when I'm in Bishops Stortford. Great Value for money. Close to both train station and city centre. Close to the airport as well. A nice little pub next to our room. I can recommend Jolly Brewers to anyone. Its not the Shangri-La, but Im not going to stay in my room when I travel

Thomas

The room was small but well laid out and the property was within the town and a short stroll to restaurants and shops.

Charles

United States of America

Friendly and clean and a short walk to everything.

Brian

The location was really good - close to the station, shops, restaurants, etc. The bed was comfortable.

The owners were great,invited me to play Sunday pub quiz,very helpful.Room was spotless,bedding nice,tv good.

Garry

United Kingdom

The rooms are in a block adjacent to the pub and although on the main road are set back enough not to be noisy. The pub is a traditional English inn with friendly staff and good beer selection and close enough to the town and local facilities. Ideal for stopover on the way to or from Stansted Airport. One tip is to get the frequent bus service instead of the train. It stops nearly outside and is cheaper, probably quicker and certainly more pleasant.

Friendly staff, good value for money, room had everything that you needed. There are limited parks and very limited off street parking if these are full.

Not being able to get hold of anyone if you need help or assistance as no one was available at the premises or on the phone number provided until the pub opens, maybe something should be in place for this reason.
Lovely clean accommodation, great for getting out and about as it's central for town and Train station. Friendly staff, have stayed before and would stay again 👍

Main road can get noisy in the mornings so perhaps not ideal if you want to sleep late.
Stayed here a few times. Really convenient for Standsted Airport & connections to London. Nice bar although wasn't there long enough to visit last time.

Everything was excellent
Arrived early and was greeted with a handshake by Adam who showed us the room which was very clean with a king size/superking bed which was very comfortable, we also liked the fact that we were able to park our car right outside our room. Only 10 minutes drive to Stansted airport, easy pleasant transaction.

Kettle was not clean, which was a shame, but the rest of the room was clean to such a high standard it was probably a one off.
Clean rooms, nice bathroom, easy check-in. Motel style accommodation on main road with parking right outside.
