Terrible place

I booked this hotel on the premise it was rated as being excellent. It is not. It’s one of the worst hotels I’ve stayed in for service. We booked in and given a key to a room. We had to disturb the bar staff to ask where the room is and make our way to find it. The room was basic but clean. The mattress was full of jutting out springs (!) the furniture must have come from a junk shop as it was old, tatty and mismatched. No towel rails & had to ask for a hair dryer. Very thin walls. Breakfast advertised between 7 & 9 am. Waited in vain for 15 minutes from 7.00 but no staff in sight. There was no one around. Car park is a narrow alley with 4 spaces, filled with vans. No room for residents.

An old English local pub/hotel. Relaxed atmosphere, friendly and helpful staff. Nice evening meals. Suited my needs of 'a bed for the night'. The room was clean with TV, kettle, tea, coffee and milk.

Staff were helpful and friendly, evening meals we had were good and reasonable priced. Room was clean but beds mattress were lumpy … could feel the springs almost pocking through. The shower was poor with only a trickle of water. Am afraid the breakfast didn’t live up to the evening meal, there wasn’t even a breakfast menu, no cereals or fruit juice etc , no toast and sausages were like cardboard,egg was under cooked , but at least it wasn’t over priced .

Quirky

Lovely little ‘quirky’ hotel. The owners were delightful and very helpful. Food was delicious. I did find the stairs to the room quite a challenge due to osteoarthritis, but mobile people wouldn’t find this an issue. The room was adequate and serviced daily. The was a tv - the fact that I could only get one channel at a set volume added to the overall experience. Tea and coffee making facilities in the room were replenished daily. Bathroom was small and could do with a touch of paint, but did what it needed to do. I could have done with a chair in the room, but there probably wasn’t enough space for one. Overall I enjoyed my stay and the little eccentricities of the place added to its charm.

I have stayed at the Griffin many times and will continue to choose this venue above any others in the area. Its just a pub with rooms upstairs. It has a good restaurant, and thats exactly what I am looking for. Onsite parking is tight but I've never had any issue parking outside.

Old coach house in need of refreshing in the bars

450 yr old coach house in the middle of town. The staff helpful. Free parking, breakfast included. Rooms were good and clean with comfortable beds. The main bar and dining area needs a full revamp , carpet would benefit from being removed and the old wood flooring brought back to life, the odour of old stale smoke from an era of open fires still hangs in the air. It’s time for fresh blood to take the reins and the owner gentleman to think about enjoying his latter years and not trying to continue working to the end. I have empathy for his willpower but sometimes you need to consider calling time

A very interesting ancient inn. The town is spoilt by the fast roads going through the centre and the limited options for eating out other than in the hotel. The church is beautiful!

It's a 470 year old inn; so the floors are a bit wonky and there is no lift but the bedroom is otherwise good 3 star standard and the staff are courteous and helpful, the restaurant serves good Englsh cuisine at reasonable prices and the bar atmosphere is that of a village pub. and it couldn't be closer to the centre of town
