The only criticism during our stay came from the coffee drinker, because the coffee from a machine was luke-warm; the alternative (instant coffee and water intended for tea) was not attractive either!

We enjoyed being located in the historic Cathedral Close, which is still locked overnight (against the outside world!) Reception welcome was good, and we preferred the educational surroundings to the more usual commercial "frills". We were very happy to have no TV or radio - therefore spared endless politics. Breakfast - in a bright roomy refectory - was excellent, with one exception...

Was a little noisy at the back of the building. I usually have a room at the front which is always very quiet so it was unexpected.

Great location opposite the cathedral.

I missed the full bathroom in the room, especially the shower.

I absolutely loved the location, just opposite the Cathedral. The staff was very kind and welcoming and breakfast was varied and fresh.

Its central position in the city.

The only problem in my room was the window which was broken,so very difficult to shut properly

Wonderful location right in the centre of Salisbury next to the cathedral. The room was as advertised pretty basic but met all my requirements.

Dreary paintwork, institution feel....bit more contemporary maybe.

Location, staff, clean, breakfast good.

Delicious freshly made breakfasts. Location ideal for our exploration of Salisbury and the Cathedral.

We knew the gates close at 11:00pm (originally told 10:30pm) and you need to buy a refundable key to get in after that time, but weren't told it's pedestrians only. Therefore, if driving you would need to find (and pay for) overnight parking outside of the Cathedral Close. Not a problem if you are aware beforehand.

In an excellent location right in the centre of Salisbury, just opposite the Cathedral, but was quite quiet and feels very private and secluded. The rooms are very comfortable and clean with all essentials provided - nice to have a room without a TV for a change! The buffet breakfast was quite varied and substantial, and delicious. All the staff in the college were very friendly and helpful. Overall, an excellent value-for-money place to stay within the Cathedral Close.

Great location, its an educational and conference location not a swanky boutique hotel but thats a great way to stay in the centre of Salisbury at a fair price. The breakfast was good honnest canteen breaky in a light and spacious room.

The water pressure wasn't the greatest on the top floor. The pressure seem to vary every second, so it was rather tricky to use the tap. Also, the water coming out of the tap wasn't clear, so we had to purchase bottled water. The waste disposer mechanism was quite sensitive under the sink and the toilet, so it gets triggered (and quite loud) frequently.

The gated area surrounding the cathedral is locked during the night. So it was extremely quiet which we liked. The location was central, and our room had a great view of the cathedral. The buffet breakfast was superb and orderly. Bed was comfortable.

Bathroom rather cold as small high window open and too high to close. Light a bit far from the bed and no near socket to bring it closer.

Location wonderful. Breakfast very good. Staff really friendly and helpful. Relaxed and easy atmosphere.

My friend thought her mattress was a bit hard but my mattress was just right for me! We only had a showerhead over the bath taps and a walk in shower would have been fab - but for cost of the room it was wonderful.

Breakfast was wonderful. So much choice.

All the doors banged - could do with correcting. Doors banging at 11pm is not good

Breakfast fine, location good

Window dangerously heavy to open & had to prop open with piece of wood from a drawer. Bathroom facilities v basic but plenty of them.

Location - second to none.

Nothing could have been better.

The location is wonderful, that is why I keep coming back. This time I could see the spire of Salisbury cathedral from my bedroom window. The breakfasts are fantastic too.

The breakfast was totally excellent; the best I've had at an English B&B for a while. The situation, which is why I chose to stay there, is absolutely stunning, with an unbeatable view of Salisbury Cathedral when you open the front door.

All good

Fantastic location in Cathedral Close with onsite parking and looking out over Salisbury Cathedral. 5 minutes walk to the city centre. Traditional building with quirky but comfortable rooms. Clean although could do with a lick of paint on the window sills. Excellent friendly staff. Cooked breakfast was very tasty. Would definitely stay again.

The window in my room could only be adjusted by standing on the windowsill!

The lass on reception for the afternoon/evening shift was a delight. Really helpful and kind. The breakfasts are wonderful; the full English in a beautiful, sun-filled dining room.

Only criticism I would have is that 2 of our 3 single rooms had no door between bedroom & bathroom which I think is pretty unacceptable!

Loved the location. Breakfast was great

It was a bit more expensive that I would have liked to spend.

Central, overlooking the Cathedral. Comfy

There could have been a few more teabags provided for a twin room.

Lovely quiet room, simple and entirely unfussy decor, spacious clean bathroom; delightful staff on the door and again at breakfast. Breakfast was excellent, with a great spread of fruit salads as well as hot food, and the hall where the food is served is spacious, calmly lit, and has windows on all sides with plants and trees visible.

The staff are super friendly and welcoming from arrival to checkout. It is a perfectly central location to explore Salisbury and the surrounding area. It is obviously a college room but nonetheless it was comfortable, clean and excellent value for accommodation in the city on bank holiday.

Nothing - though a little surprised there was no tv in the room

Superb location. Centre of town overlooking cathedral. Good breakfast.
