Can anyone tell me if there are tea making facilities in the room? Can't beat English tea can you? ;);)

I don't remember there being any when we went - I usually take a travel kettle if I want to have a cuppa in the room!:)

I stayed at HNY in May and there wasn't any tea making facilities in our room.

There was, however, a stanley blade in our bathroom :confused2

When we stayed there was no tea making stuff. We requested a kettle, cups etc. which they brought straight up and we had to buy a tea making pack with tea and coffe etc. but it was well worth it for a good cup of tea. If we go again I will take tea bags, coffee and sugar and buy milk from the station shop.

Posted via Mobile Device are you charged for requesting kettles and cups?

I stayed there at the beginning of July and we only had a fancy coffee machine.....which by the way they charge you if you use the fancy coffee that you think is complimentary!!!

Couldn't really make a nice proper cup of English tea!! I would take a travel kettle!!!!

Travel kettles are really cheap - we have one for use in USA. (110 volts)

you can borrow a kettle from reception for a deposit, and there is a small charge for a pack of tea/coffee.

I'm pretty sure they did have the first time we stayed there a few years ago but now they're charging you for the priveledge just seems that its unfair :(
