"Room good. Staff excellent."

5.0

Convenient to station. Comfortable.

Stay good until breakfast. Fridge not working in kitchens. This was not the fault of staff. However the alternative breakfast was terrible. Opted for scrambled eggs - 1st offering - what appeared hard boiled eggs chopped up on toast 1 inch thick. Returned. Proper scrambled eggs but very solid and overcooked - again on very thick toast. No marmalade - this is breakfast. Very disappointing. If you can’t make scrambled eggs don’t offer it.

"Convenient and OK, a little expensive and not all the food/drink convenience of most hotels."

8.0

Breakfast was very good, very convenient for Somerset Crcket Ground. Staff helpful.

Room slightly noisy, bar closes early and no evening meals. Effectively you need to go out to enjoy a meal and drink. Saying that there are several pubs and restaurants in walking distance but drinks with snack evening meals would be useful in the hotel until a little later than 8.

"Thoroughly recommended"

10.0

We had a lovely spacious room and well appointed bathroom. All members of staff were helpful, polite and courteous. There was a good choice of breakfast and the bonus was a free and good-sized car park on-site..

The bathroom basin was rather small.
