The George Inn

Room good, parking a bonus for town centre. Breakfast, quality, service and price excellent

Wish we'd known about the refurbishment work going on. Although it probably wouldn't have changed our plans

Room a little old, obviously, but comfortable enough, although bed would benefit from a mattress topper. Parking was convenient. Breakfast was very nice.

See above re mattress topper. All was good apart from that. Maybe the carpets were a little tired and perhaps the paintwork is ready for some attention though not badly

Lovely

Dining room a little dusty

Large room with good light and enough space for a couple. Nice coffee machine. Bathroom was very large, plenty of towels and hot water. Traditional key (not digital) was appreciated. Bar area is large an in keeping with the historic theme of the hotel. Seating areas are comfortable.

Could not see/find a kettle for tea. A nespresso type coffee machine was provided but unsure how tea or the also-available instant coffee could be prepared. Biggest issue was the wafer-thin mattress. Springs virtually compressed all the way. Springs could be felt easily though the material. It is a cheap, cheap, cheap mattress and therefore uncomfortable. This is a main reason for a hotel - the actual bed and sleep quality. No staff available on reception at 730am. Despite 3 rings of the "call us" bell and an 8 minute wait, no front of house staff appeared. Seemed very minimally staffed generally. Despite "drop key" checkout box, guests often have questions, requests or sometimes issues in the morning - staff need to be available to address these.
