Poor quality at Arch House
Room was is a tired annex 500m from the Globe. This was not at all clear when making the booking. Dog hair all over the carpets and everywhere smelled musty. Room had water ingress all over ceiling, probably need a new roof. Lots of damage/poor decoration in both bedroom and bathroom. Certainly not the expected quality for what we paid. Will not return and can not recommend staying here. Also on arriving we found out we needed to make a booking for breakfast, in doing so we found we could only be seated at 08:15 or after 09:30 which were not great choices. Why did they not offer a booking when they called a week before to confirm booking.

We had expected a higher standard of accommodation for the price. We were in a room in the Arches part of the accommodation, which is a 5 minute walk from The Globe and from where breakfast was served. The room was small, although the bathroom was a good size. First impressions is that the place is grubby e.g. both entrance doors are shabby and the steep stairs to the first floor rooms are dirty, as are the walls. The room carpet was also dirty. Also the backdoor with a keypad was never locked. However, it was very quiet and parking was good. Didn‘t like dogs shaking themselves when we were having breakfast. They shouldn’t be allowed in dining areas.

On outskirts of Wells with good parking but no on-site facilities. One nights stay was very expensive for what was offered but desperate measures etc. Bed , very "worn" mattress and room was small. Breakfast in main hotel good and nice walk if not raining!

Very pleasant and convenient for Wells centre
Very comfy stay in a twin room (#35) in Arch House. Lovely bedding and towels etc, nice toiletries. Clear and plentiful check in instructions and so easy checking in with lock box. Only downside was shower was a bit weak and bathroom light didn’t work, looked like it was in process of being fixed as cover was off.

I stayed at the Arch House, which has lovely communal spaces (lounge, conservatory, patio) and is a short walk from the Globe for breakfast. The towels and toiletries were very nice and the handy parking appreciated. Breakfast was excellent and the coffee especially good. Staff were exceptional. Worth noting that the old building is not very soundproof and noise travels between rooms (but a minor point in an overall enjoyable stay).

Great dog friendly stay, tasty breakfast included avo toast and full English. My dog was welcomed with open arms from dog menus, treats in the room, attention from the staff and lots of water and bowls around the facilities. Opposite the hotel is a green which is perfect for doggy toilet breaks. The room was really clean and quiet we stayed. Amazing location to Staithe street and the harbour. Only improvements would be air con in the room (they had a fan) and more free parking near the venue, we got lucky with a space on the Buttland

Two night mini break!
The service was very good, friendly and extremely help, the cleanliness was also very good too! Crisp bed linen and big fluffy towels! The room needed a bit of tlc though! However this would not put us off staying again, Arch house was walking distance to habour, shops and The Globe and had good parking!

Functional, comfortable
The room was in a separate building about 5 minutes walk from the hotel , and in the an annex to this building. Accessible from a courtyard which means when the curtains are open it is not private . Room was OK and comfortable, tiny bathroom. It was fine for my purpose of a single night, but wouldn’t want to stay for any length of time Expensive for what was on offer

Be Careful when booking!
The Globe in itself is a fantastic pub/restaurant/hotel. Probably the best in Wells by far. However on this occasion i was horrified when the final confirmation came through that we had been put in The Arch House which is dated and on the edge of town. We booked via a third party website that made no mention of the Arch House for the room category i booked and was not clear either on the booking confirmation i received. My advice is to book direct with the hotel to avoid any dissapointment
