Royal Surrey amenity/private room

Just wondering if anyone has used one of the private / amenity rooms at RSCH - whether they are worth the money and also if partners are permitted to stay overnight?

TIA!

Personally I found it worth the £130 to have a bit of privacy/peace and quiet. I was only there during the daytime but there was a lot of activity outside the room I had, with building work and so on. At least I could be a bit private and DS got some sleep. And spread my things out.

No shower in them, which was a drawback, but the shower was right outside.

Don't think partners can stay unless you're in labour.

BTW, I had an excellent experience with the staff there, both ante-natal and post-natal care, on a very busy day.

Thanks MrsBloomingTroll, think we'll definitely use one if there's one available. Good to know you were happy with the care there as well
