About this property
St. Alban (Standard King Room with Shower En-suite and Cathedral View)
One of the finest rooms Torrington Hall has to offer, St. Alban is favoured by guests who appreciate a spectacular view of the Cathedral and Abbey Church of Saint Alban. Sink into a large, soft bed for a restorative night’s rest, or unwind in comfort and privacy for an evening, enjoying complimentary high-speed Wi-Fi and a flat-screen smart TV. You will have your own en-suite bathroom (shower), a hairdryer, and a safe to keep your valuables securely locked away. The room’s tea and coffee-making facilities will ensure that your night’s sleep is followed by a morning that starts just the way you like it. You will also have access to a separate kitchenette with a dining table on the first floor which is shared with other guests. Torrington Hall is a Victorian mansion, built in 1882, set within its own grounds that has been converted into luxury self-catered accommodation, located in the heart of the old, charming city of St. Albans.
Many of the building’s original features have been restored and preserved, such as the sweeping staircase, chandeliers, and ornate interior. To compliment such features, the furnishings are a mixture of old-fashioned glamour with a modern twist.
There are 14 unique, luxurious bedrooms with original period features: high ceilings, exposed brick walls, fireplaces, and free-standing bathtubs. The traditional wrought-iron beds hold the finest mattresses and bedding to provide a dreamy night’s sleep. The rooms are also practical, with en-suite bathrooms, Wi-Fi, safes, and tea and coffee-making facilities.
Conveniently located in the heart of the old city of St. Albans, Torrington Hall is a short walk from all the attractions this charming, cobbled, old but vibrant city has to offer. Guests can enjoy the historic Roman and ancient British sites, shops, traditional markets, food stalls, bars, pubs, restaurants, spas and the theatre.
With free, on-site private parking, and a nearby bus stop and train station, our guests who wish to venture further afield have a perfect base from which to do so. It’s half an hour by train to get to London and 20 minutes by car to get to Hatfield house or the famous Warner Bros Harry Potter Studio Tour!

Couldn’t sleep due to warm weather and really thick winter duvet, so not a relaxing break.
Good location.

Lovely and very convenient guest house, close to the Cathedral with a view.
While close to the Cathedral, the chimes/bells ring only until 11pm. The St Albans room(with a view) does have some exposure to high street road sounds.
