Convenient for Jane Austin House.

Nice hotel, in excellent condition throughout. Plenty of parking. Very handy for Jane Austin House and Gilbert White’s House & Garden. Breakfast excellent. Didn’t dine at hotel, so unable to comment. Alton itself was not particularly appealing, but convenient. Very reasonably priced.
