Very nice hotel, friendly staff & good service. Our room was clean and spacious, the bed was really comfortable. The only fault I could mention, is that it wasn't quite warm enough, but the little heater helped! We were delighted to find an open fire in the bar area, very cosy indeed. would definitely stay again.

Party hotel - don't stay if you're a light sleeper
Very noisy directly underneath my room until almost 2am. When asked if I could have a quieter room the next day I was told that there was nothing going on and that loud conversation had been heard from my room! Considering I am a solo traveller and had been trying to work all evening with noise cancelling headphones on (and no speaking) this was very odd. Hotel is really nice and rooms are clean and comfortable. I have previously enjoyed a meal and the delightful ambience in the bar. Was considering staying here very regulary (I currently spend 4/5 nights a week at Scotch Corner and fancied a break) however the noise was dreadful. There was a party on Saturday night and several of the guests decided to have a screaming match right outside my bedroom door. Nothing the hotel could do about that BUT the noise from the bar was something they could have apologised for and moved me if possible. After two nights of very little work and very little sleep I left and will not be back. It's a shame but the staff really let this place down.

The George is one of the best places I have stayed in. From start to finish (7 night work stay) the staff, facilities, food were well above what I had expected. I would be looking to stay here again if I am required back in the area.

Fantastic stay at The George
This was a fantastic stay! Our room was spacious for a family of 4 and warm for our arrival. The beds were really comfortable and extra pillows were provided. We added on breakfast to our stay for just £14 for 4 of us and we had a great selection of full English and continental foods it was self service and freshly prepared. Perfect for families with young children.

This property was very central for my visits in the area, quiet area. smelled a bit musty, not totally surprising for a property by the river...not very sound proof, but again not unexpected as its an old building. It has the Grandfather clock, from the song "my grandfathers clock"

What a gem
Last minute booking due to traffic chaos. What a gem. The staff were so friendly and helpful. The setting and village are a delight. The breakfast was magnificent and total value for money. Would stay there again.
