Settle in for the night

The Sun Hotel sits inside a charming 16th century coaching inn, with its interior decor seamlessly blending the old with the new. All 32 of its beautifully appointed rooms come with contemporary en-suites and lots of mod-cons to help make your stay feel that little bit more homely. Sip on your favourite cuppa thanks to your handy in-room tea and coffee-making facilities. There's also free Wi-Fi to keep you connected, plus a friendly reception team that's always on hand to help sort out any niggles.

You'll have a choice of plush double, twin or single rooms to slumber in after dark. Before you settle down though, why not pop down to the cosy residents' lounge for a relaxing nightcap? Getting to the Sun Hotel couldn't be easier too. You'll find on-site parking near the entrance, while Hitchin railway station is less than a mile away.

There’s also the option of picking fragrant blooms at Hitchin Lavender Fields or swotting up on your Roman history at nearby Welwyn Roman Baths.
