Easy check in, we stayed in the Arch rooms which were clean, comfortable and had a lovely courtyard which would have been great to sit in had the weather been good. Very welcoming in the pub by the Barman and great pub food

Jonathan

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Rude, misleading and not worth the money.

Completely misleading listing. Room was far from the main inn, tiny, no internet, no hotel service, and water was leaking through the ceiling light — extremely unsafe. I had to walk to reception and was told to wait two hours for maintenance. Not a hotel experience at all, just an overpriced and dangerous outbuilding.

Staff and food excellent, room a bit shabby, the mattress was fit only for the tip, no areas for non dog owners not even in restaurant, dogs being fed by owners from table, staff petting dogs, hotel said dog friendly, which is fine, the reality is dogs and owners rule, we booked a table for two, on arrival it was surrounded by dogs, staff were brilliant in finding us a table a bit later, but we felt like the bad guys, need to make it clear that whole place is given over to dogs and owners, we won’t be staying again

The room was lovely. On arrival at the property I immediately noticed we only had one cup for drinks. I immediately informed the Globe Inn and spoke to someone on the phone. They promised they would get someone to bring a cup to us, but it never happened. I found this service very poor.

Everything we expected and more

Everything was excellent for our stay. The rooms and decor were beautifully designed, everything had been thought off, with additional amenities for tea and coffee onsite, even thought the accommodation was a 5 minute walk from the main hotel/ restaurant. Breakfast service, menu choices and quality of food were all 5 star. I'd definitely book another stay when I'm in the area again,

We had a great stay however the bath was very slow to drain and was very slippery when showering. We put the mat in and kept on it to avoid slipping.

A short overnight in Wells. The Globe was convenient for a Lunch at The Crab House-only a short walk through a delightful old fashioned seaside High St. Parking was easy and free around the Buttlands Green. Hotel staff throughout were extremely helpful and pleasant and the rooms were clean and although fairly small, well equipped with all we needed. The Bar worked well and Breakfast in a busy but well orchestrated setting was magnificent-quite honestly as good as I have had for some time. Scrambled egg was perfect, sausage and bacon tasty and presented perfectly. We will stay again.

Staff very friendly. Decor in room need tidying. Mattress lumpy, and noise heard from kitchen below quite loud. Service good, good is good. Cost of food and drinks higher than expected, although relevant to area.
