Good location but old hotel and needs a refurb. In my room the bin had not been emptied and there was a dirty used towel hanging on the back of the bathroom door.

Loads of charm and A CAT 🐈😺
The hotel is old but loads of character. Friendly staff and a gorgeous little black cat lives there. Bathroom was cold but it was the coldest night of the year so far. We were given a little extra heater that saved the next night for us. Lovely food and will definitely stay again

2 nights in Salisbury for Christmas Markets
The hotel is situated in the centre of Salisbury, 5 minutes from local bus stops and 10-15 minutes walk from Salisbury Railway Station. Getting around Salisbury is easy as it is very much designed to walk with lots of safe crossing points. when we first arrived our room had no heating. Faith the receptionist was wonderful as she first checked to see if there were any heaters we could have. they were all in use so she upgraded us to a room she knew form experience was warm and cosy. Heating was an issue in the hotel and certainly needs looking at. the lounge and restaurant could be warmer, and their was a definite drop in temperature as you walked around the hotel passageways too and from your room. We ate in the evening and unfortunately they ran out of the food we ordered. As we had to change our mind the waitress did come back and advise us that she had credited us a main course, this again was excellent customer service. They are definitely short of staff in the hotel and this needs addressing as it will cause other guests to give them a lower rating. Staff did their very best in difficult circumstances however and were always friendly helpful and polite. I would stay at this hotel again and would recommend it to others. I do hope though that when we return the staffing and heating issues will have been solved.

Poor night sleep and poor service.
Room was tired and needs a refresh. Bathroom was dirty and creaking. Checking in was told no food was available and the car park was full and I couldn’t use the car charger despite there only being one car in there that night and the following morning. One of the reasons I chose the hotel was the ability to charge. Outside street noise was loud and overall I had a very broken night sleep.

Really run down
Really disappointed with this stay. The room was really run down and strong smell of mould or damp with no window that would open. No hairdryer in room and when asked for one the staff could not provide a solution. No breakfast, which staff failed to explain or mention. No customer service experienced!
