塔耳波特飯店(The Talbot Hotel)

Our one night stop didn't get off to the best start. We arrived around 1pm, check in isn't till 2, no problem, the pub bar opens at 11 so we could relax with a quiet pint. However, the pub was very closed with chairs on tables etc, no sign of any life at all and no answer when we called to make sure all was well with our booking. My wife called the head office of the hotel chain to see if there was an issue, they were surprised that it was shut and promised that someone would call us. Within 15 minutes we were informed that there had been an issue with staff that morning but that they would be open as quickly as possible. To be fair, it wasn't long but an impression had already been made. Our room was quirky which is what we want, otherwise might as well stay in a Premier. However, the fan was incredibly noisy. When we reported this, they already knew and were waiting for it to be repaired, they just hadn't told us this or that we could turn it off (maybe turn it off until it is repaired?) Now the positives - the bar area was friendly with decent staff, drinks were fine and well priced. The bed was so comfy and we had an excellent nights sleep. Breakfast was included and was well cooked and was a decent quality. Finally, the landlord was a nice guy and he seemed to genuinely care about our stay. First impressions do matter though and it is hard to turn round a negative start

Booked the Talbot Hotel for 3 nights 23rd. Feb to 26th. for a friends birthday. i will start with the good points, rooms very clean ,waitress very polite. The not so good points. no wardrobe in room four hooks on wall, bathroom radiator not working. First night booked a table for a meal had to wait 75mins then when it arrived was basic to say the least and unable to eat. Room No. 3 over the bar voices until 12-30. above us must have been the living area for the owners, children running up and down stairs banging doors, jumping on the floor above us. got to sleep about 2-30. Saturday night went to bed voices again from the bar until 1am. children still running around above us. at 1am we have a couple out side our door drunk shouting etc. went out to ask to be quite ????????? Owners went to bed at 1-30am banging door and walking above us. Sunday morning had enough packed and went home, our friends very disappointed Would never return

Lovely traditional pub a**osphere in the bar. Breakfast cooked just for you.

Always been a pub we've enjoyed stopping in but landlord and lady Nick and Katy are so welcoming and are always up for a laugh. Tonight we went in for a few drinks and tried their new Talbot sharer and it was to die for! 10/10 would recommend giving it a try! Definitely worth a stop by if you're in the area!

Have stayed here before, and as before, we got a friendly welcome, nice clean rooms and a good breakfast in the morning. Spot on thanks.

Hotel has character and looks dated. However, it is excellent value! My twin room was comfortable, large and with an updated, modern shower. Evening meal not served on a Sunday (day of my stay) since lunch is served 2-5pm. Breakfast was excellent. Staff welcoming and helpful.

We really enjoyed our stay here. Unusual little quirks to the property. Staff friendly and polite. Breakfast was served hot and cooked well. Only downside is the fact that the shower had mould and a musty smell. Could do with a good clean. Some of the paintwork on the wall in one of the rooms was chipped and ceiling where it had been repaired need a coat of paint. But overall a lovely little hotel.

Staff were lovely and very accommodating, breakfast was delish (full English) served with a smile. However the room I was in needed a good spring clean, bedding I could not fault, but needed a really good hoover, wall wiped down where tea/coffee facilities were and the shower tiles given a good scrub down. In perspective though for a B&B in a beautiful village for that price it was a bargain.

A quaint oldy worldy place . Very good service . A separate door for guests than through the pub was good .
