My husband and I stayed in room 104 on Saturday 21st Feb 2009 as part of a group travelling with a coach trip. We didn't expect the best, newly refurbished, bedrooms but room 104 hadn't been dusted for ages. We could write our name in the dust and had to pick toenail clippings off the bedroom carpet next to the... more

After reading some of the reviews on the George Hotel, we were a little worried about what we would find! We stayed for two nights dinner, bed and breakfast for £160 per couple, and found it to be a friendly, good value hotel. The food was great, the staff efficient and pleasant. We would agree that it looks as though... more

The bed was very uncomfortable, the room was very dusty, and the bathroom was disgraceful, with dirty tiles, sealant peeling around the bath, and a cracked wash basin. Overall not inviting at all. The wallpaper in the restaurant was peeling off... more

The visit started badly when without notice we were directed to our room only to find a sign in the bath saying that it was out of order, we contacted reception and asked for a room with a working bath, after some re-organisation we were given another room as requested. Where to begin, the room was not as clean as... more

Had been passed hotel many years ago so knew location but had not been inside it. Booked a long weekend away via a agent website. Food was excellent with plenty of choice and menu changed each night. Breakfast was self service and you could eat as much as you liked with plenty of choice. Room was clean, hot water was... more

Although this hotel is in a nice, quiet location and has a faintly olde worlde charm, this unfortunately extended to the booking/payment system - as a result, the payment we made by debit card at the end of our stay took SEVENTEEN days to come off our account, which could have caused all sorts of problems had we not been... more
