城堡飯店(Castle Hotel)

I booked a deluxe double room for just one night. We were very happy with our room, which was spacious, clean and well appointed. The bed was very comfortable as were the pillows. The welcome from Reception was warm and friendly. There is parking at the hotel but this is run by NCP and costs just under £10 for a 24 hour stay. Payment is via an APP so I suggest installing that on your phone before you arrive. There is not the option to pay by cash or card at the machine. The hotel itself is very charming, with individually decorated bedrooms and a host of period features and furniture in the public rooms. We were meeting my son for dinner in a nearby restaurant for dinner so cannot comment on the Dining Room and we opted out of breakfast as we had an early lunch arranged. We did enjoy some cocktails in Brazz, where the service and quality of the drinks were appreciated.

Fab staff, very clean and tidy and brilliant location if you need to be in the center and near Vivary Park. Bathrooms a bit dated but very clean. Breakfast was fab! The staff really made you feel welcome and nothing was any trouble. Can be a bit noisy outside due to nearby pubs, but don’t let this put you off. We would defo stay again.

Central location. Easy to find. The room was very clean and had very comfortable beds. A fan was provided which was welcome during the heatwave. Charger ports would be an added bonus. Breakfast was outstanding. I ordered the eggs Benedict which were delicious. Excellent variety of breakfast items. I couldn’t resist a pastry and the jam was exceptional. Cooked breakfast was available from the self service area. Delicious produce. Beans are a must with an English breakfast which were not provided. Staff were very friendly and welcoming. Would definitely return and recommend.

Lovely Hotel, very friendly and helpful staff, rooms have everything you mught need and are cleaned daily. Great location bars and restaurants all in walking distance and a bus station right outside to catch a bus to the surrounding area of Taunton

We stayed to watch the cricket and see family and friends in the area. Our room was a little on the small side which meant it was very hot during the night, room could do with a fridge for drinks. Breakfast is good and the gardens are kept in good condition. When we come to watch the cricket again we will stay here again.

So, the staff in general were lovely, the hotel is nice and the gardens are great. Their billing process is haphazard. Check all cards you might have offered them for surplus charges. Having fully paid before we left my partner's card was subsequently charged for a phantom room as well as someone else's lunch (they were at our table but we did watch them pay for it.). Also a small issue with breakfast 'system' - 25 mins before close of service we were pretty much forced into a table in a tight corner and not allowed to sit at any of the 15+ tables set out for 3 or more people. What were they expecting on a Thursday morning, a bus load of family groups to suddenly arrive for breakfast with 15 minutes to spare?

What a beautiful place to stay. Taunton was a little rough around the edges tho.

This place needs some renovation quick. Charming hotel, unfortunately it looked shabby

A superb place to stay.it’s in the heart of Taunton a stone’s throw from all your needs.
