    Restaurant was closed the days we were there - which we didn’t know about until we got there (although staff were very apologetic about this when we arrived)

    Venue has been done up well, managing to keep some of the characteristics of the Old Mill. Lots of options to choose from on the breakfast menu.

    Whwn i arrived i was askes to pay and had to show that i had already paid via booking.com by showing emails, bank statements and the booking.com resevation. The restaurant was closed when I checked in at 8pm on a Tuesday and I had not eaten. I had no water on my second day when I woke up and so couldn't flush the toilet or use the shower

    The location and building are spectacular. Amazing views and a great spot for pub and few drinks and the restaurant. I sat at breakfast each morning looking through a deep window onto a garden and the cathedral in the background

    When booking the accommodation it was advertised there was parking, no parking available when we arrived and when we asked the staff if they knew of any nearby parking they said no. Closest parking after the car park is a fair walk and then had to trek our stuff all the way, staff not very accommodating and a little rude upon check in and when we brought a drink at the bar later on, breakfast in the morning was poor, service was slow and breakfast itself was no very tasty

    Amazing location and beautiful surroundings! Bedrooms were nice as well.

    Waiting around for a room I’d paid nearly £150 for to be cleaned and then given a completely different room with no river view!!

    Location fantastic but getting there and having to wait one and half hours for my room to be cleaned bearing in mind I was visiting my brother for one night so this ate into my previous time with him! Also I ended up with a different room was told it was a river view what I’d booked but no river view at all. Very disappointed, but staff tried their best and breakfast was amazing!

    Food & drink was very expensive but loads of places to choose from in sailsbury, maybe do a % off for residents.. thd first night we spent £70+ on 2 starters, 2 mains and a bottle of wine.. we stayed 3 night if it was a little cheaper we would of eaten there more.

    Fantastic location less then 10 min walk into sailsbury

    Room was very hot. Food was ok on first evening but 2nd night wasn't good value for money. Came for breakfast on first morning at 7.45am and was still waiting at 8.25am, so had to leave to get to work.

    The location is stunning.

    The window would not stay open, which made it difficult to air this warm and humid day. A book had to do the trick, and there was a table fan that made it bearable. The toilet would not always flush properly. In fairness, I did not ask the staff for help with any of this. The window in the bathroom was painted stuck and therefore not possible to open.

    Beautifully situated a short (and lovely) walk from the city center. Friendly and helpful staff. Old and charming building. Everything was clean and comfortable. The pub and surroundings were very nice, and the food I had was good - well above average pub grub. Breakfast average. I would stay again, and would recommend it to others as well.

    Room wasn’t made up by housekeeping (stayed two nights). Bathroom needs a shelf over the sink to place my glasses (spectacles) and shaving kit and a shelf and soap dish in the shower enclosure for shampoo / shower gel bottles and soap.

    The bed was very comfortable and the shower was great. Breakfast was excellent.

    Staff were very neutral. No greeting upon arrival or face to face check-out, no chat at breakfast from anyone. Breakfast was nice but would have like pastries, toast, meats and cheeses as unlimited buffet selection.

    Lovely location beside river, within half a mile easy walk of the city centre. Room was quiet and comfortable, with a large bathroom .

    The breakfast was ok, order was muddled. Juices, fruit salad, tea and coffee needed topping up.

    Really good value for money, very clean, lots of little extras like toiletries, bottled water, tea tray had biscuits and hot chocolate.
