It was fine for an over night stay, but rooms need updating. Beds were comfortable and good strong shower. Rooms at front of hotel if a warm night, are noisy with window open, so not ideal. That said, it was reasonably priced, so not too bad all in all.

Convenient with Excellent Breakfast

Comfortable room at very reasonable price including full breakfast, which was excellent. Convenient for city centre, cathedral and cricket (my reason for trip). I travelled by train so can't comment on parking. It's an old inn so rooms are not super-modern but have character. It was very warm until I had had the windows open overnight. A fan was provided but I was glad I missed the predicted heatwave a few days later. With windows open there was a degree of street noise, e.g. bin lorries early morning. I will return provided there's no heatwave forecast!

Check-in to the hotel was good. Quick service by reception. Got to the room and it was clean but very basic. I stayed in this hotel with work over 8 years ago & the carpet & furniture which looked dated then, have still not been replaced. The hotel is close to the cathedral & in the city centre. It could be a gem if the rooms had some money spent on them.

We didn’t enjoy our stay at the property. It was very tired looking. Small room, not well presented and the bathroom was grubby. The bed wasn’t comfortable and pushed against the wall, barely any space to walk round the bed, only one set of towels. Wouldn’t recommend, definitely not value for money. The pub itself is nice, enjoyed our drinks.

The property is pretty old; so am I, in human terms. So inevitably no lift, but a solid staircase is fine; but there are steps in the corridor and even within the rooms (or my room, anyway) which need care. And I couldn't quite manage to open the window, even a little. The staff friendly and helpful; food fine, if fairly simply (which is OK for me); breakfast coffee not hot enough ... but it's a great place, full of character, and so near the cathedral I feared to be disturbed by bells; but I wasn't, and it was quiet at night. Well worth a visit! *****

Lovely and clean, on the edge of the Town centre, opposite the Cathedral. Great for walking into the Centre and quiet at night, apart from the noise of people staying in the Talbot. An old coaching inn, with plenty of character and a warren of walks to get to some rooms. The room we had was a bit dark, but coped with the lights as we were visiting family, who lived local. Staff were lovely from the guys checking us in to the housekeepers cleaning the rooms. Would stay again

Clean, basic, good value.

Good value room. Clean. Everything needed and although a little old fashioned in places, fits the characterful building. TV and kettle. Some efforts underway to maintain and redecorate. You need to let the shower run for at least 2-3 min for the hot water to come through, but good flow and pressure. Staff helpful and convenient location for the City centre, just by the cathedral. There is a very handy NCP next door, which was £11.95 for an overnight stay at the time of writing, or £9.95 if you had preloaded and registered with the NCP app. Didn’t have the opportunity to try a meal or breakfast but the food looked good from a distance!
