Very friendly pub, likeable staff, great breakfast choice, and very reasonable prices for good quality evening meals. We were in the new section of the pub and were pleasantly surprised how quiet everything was after 11.30pm Note car parking next door is an extra... More

Cannot believe that we had to wait at least 50 minutes for apple pies before I asked for a refund. I was then told they couldn't refund to the card I paid for it on. People on the table next to us had to wait an hour for their main and then one item had to be sent back. My... More

Thank you for your feedback on your recent visit to the Ye Olde Talbot. What you experienced was unacceptable and we will be holding an investigation on why you had to wait so long for your desserts as 50 minutes is not on even when we are busy and is not the high standards we aim to deliver.

The travel agent presented me with 3 options for Worcester and based on the webstie I chose this Hotel. So here I am and it's nothing like the website - the entrance courtyard iis dark and dingy, the room I'm in overlooks the cathedral but has got to be one of the smallest, grottiest and noisy hotel rooms I've stayed...

We visited Worcester and this hotel in particular as a staging post for the Malvern Spring Show, for which it is ideally suited. The hotel is centrally positioned, but with easy access by road. However,with no car park, patrons are recommended to use the adjacent NCP car park, and you receive a 50% discount by obtaining a discount franking at... More

The room was OK, the windows were well insulated from the elements and outside noise but we were both woken up several times in the night by over energetic door closers on fire and room doors slamming as late night (2.00am - 3.00am) guests returned. The guests were not over noisy themselves but the sound insulation between the room and... More
