If you are sleeping here I would ensure you take ear plugs and a portable air con! It is a shame as the staff are very polite and helpful. Food was OUTSTANDING! The gym was in good condition and well maintained and cleaned. However, the room was like a sauna and when I opened the window there was some form of generator outside my window pumping more hot air in and the perpetual hum whilst trying to sleep was not the most amazing experience! When I walked out of my room in the morning the hall was cooler than my room! But on the positive, I had an amazing breakfast before I left

Staff were very friendly, used my first name which made the experience personal. Breakfast is great, one of the best I have ever had. I had a classic double room and it was comfortable and beautifully decorated

Outstanding staff - friendly, helpful and fun! Food generally very good, but not always piping hot. Lovely premises and gardens. Nice decor in the room - but the standard double bed too small. Had a very enjoyable stay and would definitely return.

We can't say enough about the property. The staff was the best! And the spa is awesome. The TV's could be updated so that guests can plug in a fire stick but other than that the place is perfect.

Staff were exceptional. I really liked that throughout my 4 night stay that the staff remembered my name and were really friendly and helpful. Any issue I had was quickly rectified. I reserved a Superior Double room. On Check in to my room I noticed it was a Classic Double (as advertised on their website). I queried this and was given a Superior Room quickly. Bathrooms were out of place, the two rooms I had did not reflect a 4 star status. Quite basic and there was no room to place any of my toiletries in the bathroom. Need a shelf please! Breakfast was delicious, I love the freshly cooked to order selection and the yogurt and fresh fruit (strawberries, blueberries and blackberries) were especially my favourite from the buffet. Agree with other reviews, coffee at breakfast is not the best!

Loud music playing until 1am on a Tuesday. Reception was not helpful when complaining about the noise. No good for a week time business trip. Otherwise staff were very nice and the hotel has a nice charm.

Was very disappointed to find out on arrival that the spa was at extra cost £50 for 2 hours and required booking. This is not clear on this website and was the whole reason we booked this hotel. The hotel itself was very charming and the staff were friendly. This websites needs to state the spa is at extra cost and requires booking, I booked multiple rooms and must say we were all extremely disappointed given the price

Delightful old building however that doesn’t excuse the poor state we found our room in. Basically the room was unkept dirty carpet, lots and lots of cob webs spanning over 3ft and a net removed and not replaced in the bathroom. Could not get a taxi due to the location and we felt the property was over priced. Positive the staff where made aware of all issues and tried to resolve.

Had one night at Ye Olde Bell Hotel & Spa. From the outside it looks nice. Check in was quick, room seemed okay, it's a very very old building but that can also some times be nice (if it is fairly well kept). That is not the case here. Window in bathroom couldn't close fully + glass was broken. Drain in bath was clogged. Service at dinner in restaurant was ridiculous. There were 3 tables with guests in the restaurant and the male waiter was so busy talking with the guests at one table, that it was close to impossible to order anything. He was so ignorant that it was unbelievable. I normally never write reviews but this experience was just too much and I must admit that I stay at many hotels and do experience a lot. This place could actually be nice if a little more money would be spent on maintenance (fix things when they are broken - thank you) and have a waiter that actually care about the guests and not are busy caring only about himself.

We were extremely disappointed to discover only after booking that, despite being advertised on the Expedia Website as having pool & spa, that we were not allowed to use these facilities. We booked this hotel believing that we might have a swim/sauna on arrival and perhaps again before departure. On enquiry directly with the Spa we were told we could book a 2 hour session before we left for a very significant cost. If you are advertising these facilities on your website it needs to be clearer that the spa is not generally available for residents to use.

Had a business stay for one night. Lovely meal and helpful staff. Unfortunately I had booked a business stay on valentines night and there was a live band playing. Being on the first floor, the music from the band was loud enough to be heard in my room. Followed by a lot of noise afterwards which sounded like furniture moving around for quite a while , so this kept me awake for some time. Fully understand that events happen but clearly the rooms aren’t very well sound proofed. Knowing the event was happening I would have booked somewhere else. Otherwise room was lovely and staff were helpful. Breakfast was lovely , good choice and high quality.
