Angel Hotel

We’ve eaten here several times and the staff are always extremely attentive, lovely decor and a great atmosphere. Food is delicious but the menu is very meat heavy. There is 1 vegetarian option and every time we’ve been it has been some type of fancy vegetable. No protein, no imagination. The fish has always been amazing but again one choice, in addition to the cod and chips. The table next to us were vegetarians and had a couple of starters each and I heard them debating walking out to find somewhere else to eat. If you’re a meat eater and appreciate excellent service, I would highly recommend.

We had the most amazing relaxing weekend here for our birthdays, from the minute we walked into the hotel the staff were welcoming. The room was so lovely, the bed was so comfortable and the bath and shower were lovely, it was made extra special with lovely birthday cards on the bed. We had dinner in the restaurant there and wow it was perfect with a lovely bottle of wine, we were looked after very well with a lovely dessert saying happy birthday. Staff were fantastic. We had a drink in the lovely bar after. Breakfast was really delicious too. This was one of my favorite weekends away in this lovely hotel. We will definitely return- Thankyou x

My husband booked a one night dinner, bed & breakfast stay at The Angel Hotel, staying in a signature room. Initial impressions of it all being rather hectic settled down once guests having tea had departed. The room was frankly strange - and rather dated. The wall opposite the street facing windows just had a glosssy red mirror and a couple of black hands poking out of the wall, against a background of patterned wallpaper. It felt as if it had been redecorated on a limited budget without any attention being given to making it a room one would to be in. The bathroom was bizarre: a vast space, with a massive copper rolltop bath in the centre, and the toilet and basin at the side, with nowhere apart from some rickety wooden shelves to put toiletries. On a positive note, the hotel must have an incredibly powerful boiler lurking in the basement, as the bath filled up in seconds and the shower almost flooded the room with a tiny turn of the tap. Again, it just wasn't a room one would want to spend time in - although there would have been plenty of space for a party. Moving on to the dinner part of our experience, I'm pleased to say that the kitchen is as good as ever, and also coped well with my gluten free dietary requirement. However, the restaurant is expensive, and one should expect to pay £100 per person, inclusive of wine. Finally, we'd like to offer a shout-out to the hotel staff, particularly those running the restaurant so efficiently and with friendly smiles.

Gor my wife and I’s travels we have visited many hotels in many countries and had many meals! My wife said that her sea bass meal was the best she had ever had. The staff were lovely, the surroundings a delight and it’s history, overlooking the abbey, great. It is the kind of hotel that you book and on arrival are very happy with your choice

My car was damaged in their control - raised it with them and no one ever called back…

The Angel Hotel was chosen down to its known and sound reputation to meet our hope for a very special 80th birthday gift, but i am afraid our hopes were not met. The kettle in the room was faulty, needed pressure applied to switch until boiling water had been reached. While the leather settee looked sumptuous, it was not suitable for the two guests as they both have accessibility issues and was a struggle to leave the settee. On making the booking i explained as clearly as i could the guests9my parents had mobility issues and the room needed to be accessible. Access to the room required two flights of stairs which was exactly what we wanted to avoid. The door to the shower was faulty and leaked, it seemed a "fix" had been attempted but still leaked. This was reported to hotel staff during the visit. The underfloor heating could not be regulated or adjusted. In summary we are disappointed and our hope of gifting a wonderful stay fell sadly short. We did feedback these points to the Hotel, despite acknowledgement of receipt of our email we did not receive any detailed response after 12 days which triggered this review.

Location, valet parking and excellent service.

Room was a bit dated but excellent value for money
