Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is ideally situated in the heart of an ancient market town with a lot of character, making it easy to explore all local attractions. The rooms are beautifully appointed with lovely bath products and a rolltop bath, but some may prefer en-suite showers over baths. The service provided was top-notch, reflecting the owners' high ethics. The dining experience at 28 Marketplace across the square was delightful with signature meats offered. Overall, a charming location with some room preferences and excellent service.
I had a delightful stay at the hotel. The rooms exuded a lovely atmosphere, and I was welcomed with a complimentary bottle of bubbly. However, the service provided was rather disappointing at times. The location was perfect, right on the square in the heart of Somerton, but the dining experience left something to be desired.
The hotel has a lovely atmosphere with character. I enjoyed the complimentary bottle of bubbly in the room, but the service was not up to par, and the ethics of the owners left a lot to be desired. The location in the heart of Somerton was fantastic, although the restaurant experience was unfortunate. The rooms were clean and comfortable, offering a relaxing stay.
