Please note that our restaurant can get busy and booking is advisable.

Perfect location, lovely room, comfy bed, great breakfast, good service in bar
Central location
The car parking was extremely tight. As a result my car was scratched by someone who did not leave a note. I asked the hotel to review their ccctv footage which they did but they said it was inconclusive. Apparently the camera that covers the tightest parking area is only a dummy camera so the only one with footage was too far away to be conclusive. Not very good for a good hotel.
Very good service and food. Helpful staff. Always friendly.
Bedroom excellent. Room always warm and quiet.
Parking hit and miss. Had to park initially half a mile away.
Music at mealtimes unnecessary.
Exzellente Lage
Schöne Zimmer

Everything went well except the parking
Parking. I had been warned that parking would possiblyhave to be off-site but this was much more inconvenient than I thought would be the case
The position of the hotel close to the Cathedral and shops
Staff very friendly.
Parking could be challenging if hotel full
Great location, gorgeous room, all the staff where very polite & courteous, would recommend
N/A
Nice efficient staff
Car park to small
Perfectly positioned coaching inn expanded at the back into multiple buildings, with internal first-come car park. Good mostly-buffet English style breakfast, reasonable bar prices with exceptionally wide selection of wine by the glass. Nice out- front patio garden adjoining cathedral green. Good atmosphere. Outstanding value-for-money.
Some rooms (including a top suite) have views of very close adjoining buildings. Courtyards don't drain well so getting to and from main building can be wet and dirty under-foot. They like keys to be left when you are out but there can be a delay to retrieve them.
The hotel is in the centre of wells on a one way street comfortable seats in the dining room
Make sure you request a shower if that is what you want as not all bathrooms have one. Room 8 has a bath in the bedroom and no shower. Parking very tight due to age of the hotel. Lots of stairs. Again due to age of hotel
Location & style
Lovely building, spotlessly clean everywhere. Fantastic location in the centre of Wells.
Exceptional staff, highly professional, friendly, this contributed to the lovely atmosphere in the hotel.
No AC in the bedroom, fan was provided. Not really an issue in September of course.
