My stay at the hotel was pleasant, with spacious and well-appointed rooms, albeit next to a busy main road. However, there were only two hangers in the wardrobe which was a bit inconvenient. I did encounter a couple of issues during my stay, including a sink that would not drain and some stains on the pillowcases. Overall, the room was made up as a double, which was a nice touch.

The service provided to the guests, around 60 of us, could have been organized better, especially after a tiring drive. Despite some delays, the reception staff, particularly the ladies, were excellent, courteous, and very helpful. I especially appreciated the lady who took care of my credit card when I accidentally left it behind during check-out.

The dining experience was just okay, with a fairly decent buffet spread but some issues with the quality of the food. The bacon seemed undercooked and unappetizing, affecting the overall experience.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The room I had was spacious and modern, but unfortunately, it was a bit of a challenge to reach due to the steep stairs and noise from other guests passing by. The dated smell and smoke were not pleasant. On the brighter side, the staff was very attentive and accommodating, even changing my room to a nicer one when I raised concerns. The location is ideal for exploring Salisbury's historic charm, but the absence of onsite parking was a drawback. The dining experience was mixed, with some dishes not meeting expectations. Overall, a stay with both positive and negative aspects.

The hotel's location is superb, allowing easy access to all the sights in Salisbury. The rooms, though accessed via a steep staircase, provide a good size, comfortable bed, and a clean, quiet environment, despite some noise disturbances. The service was excellent and accommodating, though the actual star rating is questionable. The dining options, while rich with variety, were slightly disappointing in quality and service. Overall, a great spot for exploring but with room for improvement in certain areas.

The hotel is in a superb location, a short stroll from Salisbury Cathedral and just steps away from the bus stop for Stonehenge. The rooms, despite some issues like being dirty and not ideal for two people, were warm, comfortable, and provided tea and coffee facilities. The service was welcoming and helpful, although they seemed understaffed during breakfast. The dining experience was described as nice with a good selection of food, but the afternoon coffee and tea were disappointing. The facilities offer a good-sized warm room and a pleasant value meal, but there were gaps in the shower and additional costs for certain amenities.

The hotel is ideally located, close to Salisbury Cathedral and within a short walk to the city square with plenty of shops, cafes, and pubs. The rooms felt a little dated but were comfortable, spacious, and very clean. The service was exceptional, with special touches like finding extra Christmas treats in the room. However, the dining options were fairly good but may not suit all tastes.

Staying at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were a delight with a little sitting room and tea making area, although facing an open-air night club could be bothersome. The service was lacking at times, with issues encountered during interactions with staff, but the location was ideal for exploring the town center. Dining was a let down with bland food, but prices for drinks were reasonable. Overall, the hotel could use some updating to enhance the guest experience.

The hotel was a pleasant surprise, located in the center of the city near the cathedral and high street. The rooms were clean and set out well, with a comfortable four-poster bed and a spacious bathroom. However, the nighttime noise from nearby establishments could impact sleep quality. The service was exceptional, with staff going above and beyond to assist guests. The dining experience was a mixed bag, with some items not meeting expectations. Overall, a convenient option with friendly staff and a great central location.

My stay at the hotel had its highs and lows. The rooms were clean and spacious, but lacked nice touches and had some cleanliness issues. The service varied from rude and unhelpful to extremely helpful and personalized. The location was central and perfect for exploring the city, though it could get noisy. The dining options were decent, with some room for improvement. Overall, a mixed experience.
