Overpriced. Noisy room with outdated bathroom and an average breakfast. At over £200 per night it should be a lot better.

Lovely 'old school' hotel right in the middle of town. Suprisingly quiet. Very helpful staff.

Beautiful hotel and lovely large room. Delicious breakfast and very helpful staff.

the staff were without exception both friendly and helpful. The dinner menu was limited but the food beautifully cooked, breakfast was top class.

The room was extremely hot, had to go into the corridor to cool down. The fan in the room provided no relief nor the opening of the windows.

Generally fine - main issue was that the towel rail was stuck on during my stat, which was during the hottest July the UK has ever experienced. As a result my whole room was hot and I didnt sleep much. To be fair it was hot anyway, but this didnt help. Otherwise - a very grand hotel and I terrestial building. Staff pleasant also.

I booked a double room which was so small. It had a dreadful view over an alley and roof top. So not desirable in any way. The room had a small fan - there is no air conditioning - we roasted - it was so so hot unbearable. With two adults in such a small room with no air-conditioning terrible. What made it worse was that there is a heated towel rail in the bathroom that was permanently on which you could not turn off so the small bathroom was so hot and made the room even worse. The upside was that we were attending a wedding and the registry office is a 3 minute walk away.

Great stay, my room was lovely, staff were friendly and breakfast was really good quality. There is a pub directly opposite and my room faced it so there was a bit of noise and not quite as peaceful as I was hoping. No air con in the rooms probably due to the age but the fan provided was of good quality. Beds really comfy and I got a good nights sleep. Would reccommend

Such a beautiful historic property - covered in blooming wisteria in June. I had the garden room and loved it.

Lovely hotel in the centre of Taunton - staff were really helpful and polite when we checked in. The room was clean, comfortable bed and clean bathroom with all the amenities - great water pressure in the shower! Also the room was very quiet for a Friday night so not a lot of outside noise can be heard. Breakfast was really good lots of choices, fresh food and cooked to order items. Only negatives were we put our car on charge and the charger hadn’t worked so we tried a second one and had the same issue. Would be nice in the room to have better coffee instead of Nescafé sachets. But overall a lovely stay and would return.

Lovely building. Rooms clean. Staff very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was filling - lots of choice and well cooked. Only negative would be that soundproofing isn’t the best in the rooms.

With the castle ramparts dripping in wisteria the atmosphere was drenched in ancient mysteries.

Great location but a bit tired.

In a single room it didn’t feel I was treated the same as friends and family staying in double or family rooms. It was clean and adequate but not special. Breakfast buffet bacon and eggs first morning was not hot but there are freshly cooked alternatives. Evening menu was limited and not great although the hotel seemed half empty so I think the main restaurant was not open. Staff were generally very pleasant and helpful although one waitress spilled milk on my table said sorry but made no attempt to clear it up. Small things that leave an impression. Overall a nice historic hotel and very convenient location let down by small issues.

Friendly and helpful staff.

Attentive to detail for the event I was organising.

A heritage property in the town centre. In decent condition but to recognise its price point and position, a refresh of interior finishing would benefit, The staff are excellent, I interacted with housekeeping, reception, night porter and breakfast team, all are exceptionally friendly, the receptionist in particular was really very helpful and kind.

Only ate in the restaurant, service great, quality excellent, choice OK

Building has lots of character and a friendly cat! Staff all very nice, room large and comfy bed. Shower a little low and weak but large bathroom. Great breakfast cooked to order.

Breakfast was perfect …
