Good place to stay to explore Minehead and nearby attractions
Pros:

Comfortable 2nd floor room (#21) with good facilities & ensuite shower bathroom.
Located in the centre of Minehead with lots of local dining & shopping on the doorstep. Short walk to the beach. We had our dog (cocker spaniel) with us and Stones provided a mat, treats, baggies & a water bowl for the room.
Breakfast choice was excellent with a very substantial Traditional alongside other options & cereals, juices, toast & jams. Coffee / Tea was good and readily offered by the friendly staff. Sports bar showing football in the evening with good range of drinks available. Evening food available via a guest discount in the nearby Hairy Dog pub under the same ownership.

Cons:

Note: Dog Room Cleaning Premium was not included in Booking.com price (not made clear in listing...but fair enough)
Some creaky floors but generally quiet as the 2nd floor room was on a side road.
Guest car parking is slightly limited and fc-fs

Clean, well-priced and convenient Minehead stay.
Pros:

Well priced and comfortable clean room. We liked having the separate bunk bedded room for our daughter. Convenient location in central Minehead

Cons:

The room was up a lot of narrow stairs which would not suit everyone. Limited choices at breakfast

Great family stay.
Pros:

Stayed as family of 4. The room layout was perfect for us and the kids were delighted by the mini biscuit packs in the room. Breakfast was delicious- nice to have a combination of continental buffet and cooked to order hot food. Gluten free provision for breakfast good too. The sound proofing between bar and our family room was really effective.

Cons:

The room was overly warm (and we stayed well after the heatwaves ended)!

The fact there was no food on sunday-weds could have been better advertised (it was clear the pizza was only thurs-sat but not that there was no other menu) and it would have been nice if you could then bring food from outside into bar when kitchen was closed.

Pros:

Good location.

Cons:

Despite requesting a specific room and receiving a confirmation that we would have this room, disappointingly we did not. The room we stayed in was very small, very basic and hot.
Breakfast was average.
