Needed to stay in Taunton and this was a great option. The room was spacious, clean and comfortable. The breakfast had a good selection of hot and cold food. Would stay here again!

Book with caution! Be aware that there is a nightclub called mamba next to the hotel. Wednesday and Thursday they are open till 2 AM Friday and Saturday till 3:30 AM. We stayed at the hotel mid May Saturday night and the music was extremely loud. It was a heavy techno beat that literally shook the room. We tried to sleep with earplugs, but to no avail. I gave the hotel overall three stars, but that might be generous.

Beautiful hotel, cosy, kind staff, good location

So we booked a double room - we were given a room with the smallest double bed I have ever seen and with one chair. I asked to change. They offered a larger room which must have last been decorated circa 1990. They couldn’t do any better because we’d booked through Expedia they said. What??? Why does a hotel with empty rooms give you a bad room? To punish you for not booking with them? It was v poor service, whatever the reason . . .

We had such a wonderful stay at the castle hotel. The only feedback was the receptionist on check out wasn’t as friendly as the lady that had checked us in. She appeared to be confused with the communication around breakfast timings. Over all it was a wonderful stay, in the perfect location and it’s such a beautiful hotel

all round great stay, we will use again

Christmas is always particularly special at the Castle with staff having made a very special effort to make it even more special than usual. It makes an excellent place to stay, right in the middle of Taunton, for shopping with those special independent traders you won’t find elsewhere.

We had a most enjoyable stay. The friendliness of the staff was exceptional. They went to a lot of trouble to find us an alternative place for dinner as they were fully booked. Also they checked our trains to make sure they were still running without being asked. This was beyond expectations. The breakfast was great. Plenty of choice and a relaxed atmosphere.

Great stay, great location. Nice bar area. Very relaxing. Great service.

Very clean and well equipped apart from plug points Most of the plugs were round pin and not compatible with modern plugs Updating to include PowerPoints near the bedside tables would be ideal Lovely breakfast with excellent Eggs Royald

Very friendly country town traditional hotel suitable for short break.

I loved my stay here. The staff were super friendly and helpful. The room was clean and comfortable. There were plenty of breakfast options and everything I tasted was delicious. I would definitely stay here again.

Very expensive for what it was

Super comfy beds and soft pillows Great part of town

We did not like the parking arrangements. Car park now operated by NCP. Also very noisy Wednesday night due to a bar operating until 1.30 in the morning.

friendly and efficient staff, very clean

Loved the ivy on the outside. It was easy access to the property. Loved the soothing atmosphere inside.

Comfortable, with friendly staff and good food in an interesting historical location.

Good spot in Taunton

What a beautiful place to stay. Taunton was a little rough around the edges tho.

Traditional

Good rooms service was good and breakfast even better.

Comfortable hotel in a convenient location.

This place needs some renovation quick. Charming hotel, unfortunately it looked shabby

A superb place to stay.it’s in the heart of Taunton a stone’s throw from all your needs.

Unique property. Older plumbing not great.

Lovely hotel

Fab staff, very clean and tidy and brilliant location if you need to be in the center and near Vivary Park. Bathrooms a bit dated but very clean. Breakfast was fab! The staff really made you feel welcome and nothing was any trouble. Can be a bit noisy outside due to nearby pubs, but don’t let this put you off. We would defo stay again.

Central location. Easy to find. The room was very clean and had very comfortable beds. A fan was provided which was welcome during the heatwave. Charger ports would be an added bonus. Breakfast was outstanding. I ordered the eggs Benedict which were delicious. Excellent variety of breakfast items. I couldn’t resist a pastry and the jam was exceptional. Cooked breakfast was available from the self service area. Delicious produce. Beans are a must with an English breakfast which were not provided. Staff were very friendly and welcoming. Would definitely return and recommend.

Lovely Hotel, very friendly and helpful staff, rooms have everything you mught need and are cleaned daily. Great location bars and restaurants all in walking distance and a bus station right outside to catch a bus to the surrounding area of Taunton

Friendly, convenient, but a bit “tired”. Surprised and disappointed to have to pay for parking

It’s a lovely hotel, I was told has been a coaching inn/hotel for 400 years . Breakfast was delicious
