We had just a 1 night stay, but facilities were great, staff were very friendly and helpful, especially with the evening shuttle service. Lots of parking and access in and out of the city. I didn't stay for breakfast but my daughter said it was great. This was my second visit and I'd highly recommend this hotel for a stay in Salisbury. The views across to the Cathedral are stunning.

Everything about our stay was excellent. All the reception staff were friendly and helpful. The room was big and the bed was extremely comfortable. The free shuttle into Salisbury was a great service. Breakfast was excellent and the setting of the hotel by the river was stunning. We've stayed in a lot of good hotels and this has to rank as one of the best. We'll definitely return
