Gave my card details for three different cards but they didn't work on the system.Luckily the fourth card worked.Their was nothing wrong with any of the cards and if the fourth one didn't work we would not have able to stay even though we had paid the full price in advance

The breakfast was good. The room was very small with no window, very claustrophobic. Room was only serviced once in the week I was there. Pub customers openly smoking drugs directly outside of the pub. It would be expensive at half the price

The room was very small with a single bed and toilet/shower room, but it was clean and tidy. Water and biscuits topped up every day was nice. Staff were straightforward and helpful. The big downside for me (other than a single bed) was getting an awful sleep every night, as it's right above a pub. They advertise Fri/Sat nights being busy, but I was there Mon-Thurs and the place was heaving every night until about midnight, and you can hear every bit of noise from the bed! Then the apocalypse at midnight, when people going back to their rooms slamming doors. So if you are looking for a night out and somewhere to crash, or one of those guys that works away but spends all their money in the pub, then this would be right up your street. If like me you are working away, asleep early to get up early for a productive day, probably best looking elsewhere. I would recommend staying out the Luton/Dunstable area anyway if possible, traffic is awful and it's a bit of a hole.

I needed a place to stay whilst visiting close friends. This place seemed close by and ideal. And I wasn't disappointed. Lovely helpful staff, the rooms were exactly what I needed for a good night's sleep (no thrills and frills), and breakfast in the morning. Just right...

Excellent accommodation at the Pheasant
Excellent accommodation and very friendly staff. The room was clean but small, the TV being little bigger than the kettle. The breakfast was excellent and plentiful and nothing was too much trouble. The pub is about ten minutes walk from the centre and well worth having a drink in. The locals were friendly and the Guinness was top notch. All in all I would stay again without any hesitation and would recommend others to do so too.

We stayed here on the 5th of August 2023, for what was meant to be 2 nights. The pheasant inn looked very run down and outdated but as we were only needed somewhere to sleep that wasn't important. Our room had a broken radiator, a broken lamp and some of the plug sockets were hanging off the wall. We also had to share a bathroom with 5 other rooms which wasn't stated before we stayed. The bathroom was very dirty. We complained about this and we're given keys for a new room, this room was not available to us until we came back on the night of the 6th. On the 6th we arrived back at the pheasant inn at about 11.30pm. We tried to unlock the door and it had been bolted from the inside and we couldn't get in. We tried banging doors and phoning but we had no answer and had to then get an uber 2 and a half hours home so we didn't have to sleep on a bench outside. I phoned up the following morning to explain what had happened and to organise returning my case and was spoken to disgustingly by the manager. He accused us of being too intoxicated to work a door! Refused to send our case and instead had a go at us for not returning the key. There has been endless back a forth on the phone and we have got no further and they have been rude everytime. On two occasions I have said to them I'll send the key, but can they email me confirmation I will get the case once they have received it. But they refused both times. Almost 2 months later we still have no case or even a sorry.

Convenient for Dunstable centre where I visited Priory Gardens for screening of Last Night of the Proms (not particularly impressive). But they did have an excellent singing duo (Swing Sensation). Pub could do with selling Draught Beer.

NOT A GOOD PLACE TO BE
The whole atmosphere in and around the place is not good. Smelly all around, stairs not clean and too bushy around the property.

We booked this hotel for one night as we had an event around the area and it was starting at 12:00pm until about midnight. So we were not able to come back to the hotel to check in and we asked if we can check in early and the staff were very understanding and we had our room earlier that 3:00 check in. We were pleased with the location, cleanliness of the room and above all the professional, kind and friendly service we received from the staff. We would definitely book this hotel if in the area. Parking is free which was an added bonus and breakfast. A big thank you.

Good, clean and comfortable rooms
A good place to stay that’s functional - it’s a room in a pub accessed up some fairly steep stairs but the rooms have been modernised to a good standard and are pleasant for an overnight stay. I would stay there again if I visited the area .

Rooms are old and definitely need modernising to bring them up to a good standard. Shower room was dated and shower was slow but hot. Bedding was clean and beds ok. Staff were very helpful and friendly and the breakfast was very good.

Disgusting bathroom
The steps to the room were like Mountain climbing without a banister We had a shared bathroom with all i can think is some animals in the morning someone or something had gone in and pooed all over the toilet and had done a very bad job of clearing it up.The whole place is quite shabby.It will teach me not to go cheap £65

Good stay, would stay again.
Friendly welcome and even through the Inn area was loud and busy, when we went over to the rooms the noise disappeared so we were very happy about that. Comfortable beds and complementary tea/coffee, shower gel etc. Slept well and the breakfast included was very tasty. They even catered to us being vegetarian (we only told them that night).

Crammed in a very small room with 4 single beds. 4 men in a supposedly family room. !! Doors creaking waking everyone up, shower completely hopeless “ not working” fluctuating from scolding hot to freezing cold. Small shared bathroom to serve 6+ people!! No rear door access to the car park at times during the day and at night therefore had to walk around the streets to get to the only access door to the front in constant rain. Room service none existent, no bin emptied over 4 days creating a buildup of rubbish. Bedding long past it’s sell by date. Photos do not reflect the realities.

Opted not to stay as not suitable as family venue
Looked fine on the website but wasn't suitable for for me and my son so didn't stay. It's a pub but not a staycation type pub. This was booked as an urgency following the cancellation of my other hotel owing to flooding and forfeited my payment.
