My partner and I had an overnight stay on 23rd Feb. I booked a short notice and unfortunately the only availability was on the front of the hotel overlooking Sadler Street. We had a four poster which was very short - I'm tall, so this was a major issue for me - and it was above the restaurant and cooking... More

Booked a fabulous room with four poster and view of the cathedral in the actual gatehouse. Was amazing! Staff were really warm and welcoming. Breakfast is served at their sister hotel across the road. Again the staff were lovely and the breakfast good (fruit, cereal or full english). We ate there one evening too and the steak and burger were... More

My now fiancee booked us in here as a surprise after our recent engagement. We had a very late supper, the kitchen stayed open longer just for us, he had pre-ordered on chef's request but to be honest, my head was so dizzy i would have been unable to choose anything.. The food was lovely, fabulous spaghetti a vongole, I've... More

We decided on a trip to Wells to see the Cathedral. Being disabled we wanted a restaurant close by. The Ancient Gate House certainly fitted those criteria. Although we did not stay over, some rooms actually overlook the Cathedral and green, which must be wonderful especially in the Spring. We were surprised to note that they offered a set two... More

Have stayed at this hotel twice now and already booked a third stay. Our room overlooked the cathedral which is a stunning view to wake up to, possibly one of our favourite hotel room views so far. The room is tastefully decorated and has many characterful features. Bathroom not the greatest, looks as if it could do with a bit... More

We have just returned from a short break at the Ancient Gatehouse. Having eaten at the "in house" Italian Restaurant in July last year we booked the break as a treat after hosting friends and family over the Christmas and New Year Break. The package was a remarkable £99 for two, Dinner Bed and Breakfast! The allowance for Dinner was... More

Booked a table for 8 for Christmas dinner. It was advertised at £25 per head for 3 courses (selection of 4 of each). I ordered lamb, mint and ricotta ravioli with broad bean and asparagus sauce for a starter, sound nice doesn't it? sauce was nice and fresh but 4 pieces of raviloli that tasted like it had a tiny...

Last minute, my wife and I stayed here for an over night. We knew that the cathedral was really the only attraction for us in town. Our room, just happened to over look it! Nice staff, good sized room. The hallways are kind of cramped, but that's to be expected for a building that's been there for over 500 years,... More

I chose this hotel for me and my partner weekend away for the glastonbury carnival. The room we stayed in pretty small but such a lovely room with pink wallpaper and four poster bed :), staff are very friendly and helpful. Hotel location is great with shops and wells cathedral.
