we were allocated a very small room and the staff did nothing about it when i complained.

suggest that if you do stay here you check very carefully on the size of your room when you book. if you don't you may end up tripping over yourself as i did. a shame.

It was really reassuring to read the recent reviews for Corner House. We stayed there for the first time around when it had just opened (about 2 years ago) on our stopover trip to Cornwall on hols.

We were at that time frequent Hatton Court visitors (a member of the group of hotels incuding Corner House) but they were booked up for our dates so we tried Corner House. It was really good! Rooms basic compared to what we are used to but nice little touches like fresh milk, fridge and a little flower in a vase! And I must add the comfiest hotel bed I have ever slept in!

We knew Steve (restaurant) form Hatton Court and he recognised us which was really nice and told the manager who really looked after us and made us feel quite 'special!' The food was brilliant and we were advised that the Hatton Court chef (fantastic chef who I think has now left) had spent time with them getting the restaurant up and running - we could tell!

Just checked out the recent reviews as we are planning to make another visit on our stopover to Cornwall in September and really pleased to read the consistency of reviews. Of course the family people would not rate it. Read the blurb on this hotel - it is an 'upmarket' travel lodge with an 'ace' restaurant!

We are looking forward to our trip and will post a review on our return!

This hotel is a real jem. I travel frequently for business and it is refreshing to find a nice hotel that takes care of the details, rather than just doing what it thinks is expected of it.

Rooms are tastefully decorated, with basic bathrooms......space is limited in some rooms but layout is carefully thought out. What impressed me most was the small touches, like real milk in the fridge to have with your tea - thank god, no silly plastic UHT milk!....complementary mineral water, DVD's to rent at reception. They also do a great DVD. Pizza and beer room service menu!!

Staff were superb, friendly and really helpful. Restaurant was good, food a little overpriced for me, but good all the same.

Would recommend it highly!

We stayed here on the way down to a wedding in Devon. Much better than most travel stopovers which are normally next to the motorway. Taunton is a perfect spot with very easy access to the M5. The Corner House is just on the edge of Taunton town centre (about 5 mins walk) which means shops and restaurants close by.

The staff were very friendly and we were able to have a relaxing drink at the bar before going into town. There is a restaurant in the Hotel which seemed very popular with non-residents although we did not eat there ourselves.

Rooms were clean and had all the usual facilities without frills.

Breakfast was excellent with prompt friendly service.

We will stay there again in the future prbably as a stopover when travelling down to Cornwall.

The price compares very well with other travel stops.
