Lord Lister Hotel, The    
 | Originally built in the late 18th century, this charming family-run hotel has been completely refurbished to offer all modern comforts, whilst maintaining the character of the existing building.
Located on the edge of the Medieval market town of Hitchin, during your stay you can walk along the old cobbled streets to explore the fine Tudor and Georgian buildings, particularly around the market square, as well as the range of shops, restaurants, cafès, pub and theatres.
In the evenings you can relax in the cosy hotel bar that overlooks the garden, or unwind in residents' TV lounge. You can also take the time to keep in contact with friends, family and colleagues using the Wi-Fi internet access.
The hotel was originally a wool comber's House built in the late 18th century, owned by Thomas Williams. It later became a Quaker school known as the Isaac Brown Academy and many of Britain’s eminent 19th century scientists were educated there. The most famous of these was Joseph Lister who pioneered germ free operations and became known as the 'father of antiseptics.'
We can also provide conferences facilities on request. The lounge may be booked as a separate 'break-out' room, on request. | | |  |  |
