Little bit of history
2nd time we've stayed, both times in the old part of the hotel. wonky floors, everything creaks, ancient furniture - it's awesome. and always friendly service. Oh and a nice breakfast too

This hotel is full of character and history but is need of some TLC. Stayed in a family room which was a good size but in need of refurbishment. The bed was very uncomfortable and the room was musty and in need of redecoration.

Absolutely beautiful hotel and town, so out of this world. Glastonbury Tor was a bit strenuous walk but definitely worth it due to the views at the top.

Uncomfortable stay
"Reception area" smelled like the restrooms next to it. Came back down the dangerous winding staircase 3 times trying to figure out where our room was. Tiny, dilapidated old room facing a noisy back area. Room was suffocating hot. Bathroom ceiling looked like it was going to fall in. I know this is a very old building, but as a hotel it should be comfortable.

Great hotel, absolutely dripping in atmosphere. Manage your expectations this hotel is hundreds of years old, the floors will creak, the stairs are uneven and the windows aren't double glazed,.all of which are massive plusses in my opinion. Breakfast was good and there was plenty of choice. The restaurant is small and fills up quickly so ensure you book a table, and this was one of the minuses for me, usually when I check in to a hotel and they have a popular restaurant, I'm normally asked "will you be dining with us tonight?" We didn't get that and came down to a 45 minute wait for a table, so our first night we eat elsewhere. Every thing else was great, it really is a unique place to stay.

Great location and friendly staff
We stayed here for 2 nights while at the festival. We couldn’t pick up the key until the previous guests had left and the guy on reception was lovely and very accommodating. He gave us a call as soon as the key was handed in so we could get to the festival ASAP in the morning. Really appreciated this! The hotel is full of character, like stepping back into a medieval village or something! Really lovely. The rooms themselves are a little dated and could benefit from a freshen up but we were literally in the room to sleep and then out again. Bed was comfy but be aware the church clock chimes regularly so take earplugs if a light sleeper. There’s an outdoor key to get in the back door after hours but we were back before midnight both nights and the door was still open. There’s a car park right behind the hotel, literally seconds from the back door. Its £6.50 for 24 hours and you can pay on app. You could also easily find parking on a residential street nearby if preferred. Breakfast was great and always served very quickly. As a vegan I was happy with the cooked breakfast and provision of plant milks. Overall location couldn’t be beaten, staff were lovely, great breakfast, no complaints, would definitely stay again.

It was such a fun experience staying in this historic Inn! The decor maintained the historical feel, and it was a fun place to stay while visiting Glastonbury. We were able to walk everywhere (including to the top of the Tor - which seemed dauting but was not that bad!) For vegetarians - we had a great plant based burger for dinner at the restaurant, and the English Breakfast included in the morning was a very hearty way to start the day. There is also a spectacular Vegan Cafe just down the street as well.

Don't stay here
The hotel room wasn't really fit to accommodate guests . We brought this up with the manager quite frankly didn't seem that interested in our complaint . He just said it was an old property, with no apology or even an attempt to move us to another room The fact that water was seen running down the wall with the plaster falling off and towels on the floor to mop it up, A hole in the window, damp coming in everywhere, extractor fan not working making it feel very damp, Stai Stains on the carpet and the chair, a a mattress which seems it had no springs in it was not suitable. This is all unacceptable for the amount of money that we paid

Fabulous historic hotel with tremendous charm in the heart of quirky Glastonbury. We had a large room with a beautiful four poster bed. The bathroom was modern (except for the separate hot & cold water taps on the sink). I was not comfortable with the intrusive information requests and privacy waivers required to use the hotel Wi-Fi so did not use it.

Lacklustre and repetitious
The place was down at heel, a damaged and temporary repair on the window in the room. No easy means of pulling the curtains closed so the streetlighting bathed the room with glare through the night. Generally feels unloved and, given the historical significance and high profile in terms of local amenity the G&P should be much much better than this. The 1980s mega mix which seems to play on a loop during our stay (oh god, not Bono again!) was approaching a 'cruel and unusual punishment' for the staff and certainly not welcomed by us.
