St Albans

Travel Guide

Sunrise skyline of Saint Albans in England. UK
The beautiful St Albans Cathedral near London on a beautiful Autumn Day in 2014

A wonderful piece of Architecture with a deep rooted history.
St. Albans is literally half Norman & half Gothic architecture and is a mesmerising learning experience in the differences between them all in one view.  The grounds themselves are also spectacular and a brief 15 minute walk from the St. Albans station. #green
I was here in 2007.  If you like history and architecture, St Alban's is a great day out fro London, or a stop on a road trip.  An old Roman town with ruins and cathedrals, the old roman theatre is located on the Gorhambury Estate - website below for more information.

A small, sweet church between the roman ruins and the cathedral.  The walk is mostly through park lands.

The only issue is it lacks working space for business travellers as all the tables are too low down and many people have given the same feedback. Otherwise its location is great, quality hotel for the price and staff are very amenable. Rooms are on quiet carpeted corridors and very spacious and new ...

Honestly a very large room for London. Not much of a view from my room but a good trade off as it made the room very quiet at night. Having access to a small kitchen was really nice. 24/7 front desk and they were all really friendly
