    Unfortunately, Bridgwater itself has declined further since we were last in the area some 4 years ago, however, the hotel itself is in it's own little haven if you don't venture on foot outside! Pretty little garden and on site parking.

    This was our second visit to this lovely hotel as we'd been working nearby. The breakfast they serve here is outstanding.

    The hotel are very clear pre arrival about the lack of parking, however it was a struggle to find parking when you don't know the area. Advice to travellers is research nearby car parks before hand.

    Fabulous room, comfy bed, very clean adn lovely breakfast.

    Anyone with mobility problems would need to check suitability of property.

    Room 18 was spacious and comfortable with a huge bathroom with bath and walk-in rain shower. The breakfasts included a buffet and table service for cooked dishes. The building is old and full of character but my bedroom was up a flight of winding stairs.

    There was condensation constantly on the window the whole time right by the bed, even when we opened the window. There was clearly a ventilation problem.

    The shower was great. The friendliness of the staff – I even got a guided tour to see some special rooms for guests. The hotel was perfectly located in the town centre.

    Raucous canned music, that adds nothing to the amenities of the hotel. Steep stairs to upper rooms (in an avowedly old building) -- which old or infirm guests may find difficult. Room 4: overhead light of miserably low wattage. .

    Location right in the centre of town, with free parking. Helpful, friendly staff. Good restaurant. Comfortable, well-furnished public rooms & bar. Full breakfast included in room-rate.

    The breakfast wasn't great. More fresh fruit and a greater variety of breads (croissant for example or seeded, grainy brown bread) and home made jams would have been nice.

    A quintessentially English hotel, brimming with history and character, located in the very attractive old town of Bridgewater. Eclectically and tastefully decorated. Very good dinner and good selection of wines.

    An excellent choice for an overnight stay in Bridgwater.

    • Solo traveler

    • Stayed 1 night

    Foccacia and Olive oil / Balsamic was offered as a 'while you wait' starter but is a little overpriced at £5.50. In many restaurants, bread & butter/olive oil is often included in the cover charge. The focaccia was homemade but was just a little dry and slightly disappointing at that price point.

    I arrived around 1530 and after a smooth check-in, I enjoyed an excellent Sunday Roast. Beef was served with all the trimmings, Yorkshire Pud, Roast potatoes, extra gravy and a generous selection of vegetables including Broccoli, Carrots, Parsnips, Swede, and Cauliflower cheese. Very good value at £15. Rosie provided helpful, friendly, and efficient service.
