Staff were excellent — friendly and helpful throughout. Parking was ample and the hotel was easy to find. The room itself was a bit dated, with marks, scratch marks and rust on the bottom of the bathroom door. There were only towels for one person and one had what looked like a red stain, but when I went downstairs the staff quickly and happily provided fresh ones. The TV worked well, though there was no telephone in the room. Lovely view of the bridge and river, and it was very quiet — didn’t hear a thing from the room. The building has a slightly spooky, old-fashioned charm to it; definitely has that “old place” atmosphere. There’s no lift, and it’s quite a walk through lots of long corridors, so it’s easy to get a bit lost. I wouldn’t say it was wonderful as described online, but the location was excellent.

The George hotel is historically stunning!! The entire hotel holds so much beautiful character, from the sitting rooms to the restaurant. The restaurant is also gorgeous, overlooking the river and their lovely gardens, not to mention that the food was very much fine dining for a low price.

Fantadtic couple of days.

Booking was last minute and a real pleasure to find such a dog friendly hotel in an idealic riverside location. The staff couldnt be more helpful or friendly, nothing was too much trouble, and of course it was a paws up from our dog as he was offered treats at every turn. The hotel itself is starting to show its age but dont let that put you off.
