Perfect nice hotel in a good location. If you have mobility issues ask for a ground floor room as the stairs are steep and twisty!! Breakfast was nice.

Charming and quirky hotel with good food.

We really enjoyed our three days here. Everyone was very friendly and the hotel is charming and quirky. The weather was very hot, so the addition of two sturdy portable fans was very welcome. We were in a lovely attic conversion and could see the countryside around for miles. Although we were at the top of the building, the water pressure was good and we could all have showers to cool off without any problems - plenty of hot water, too - and the toiletries smelled gorgeous. Breakfast cooked to order with fresh local produce and plenty of choice. Even though the hotel seemed fairly full there was no delay at all, but we never felt rushed or hurried either. We were lucky enough to be able to leave our car in the hotel car park throughout our stay - parking is limited, but we could see a public car park nearby - as there are good bus services to the neighbouring towns we wished to visit (Hereford and Monmouth). A really good short break.

The staff were excellent. The rump stakes we had at dinner were, i think, the best I've had in many years. Our room was really quirky in as much as nothing was level except the bed. That might not be to everyone's liking but I thought it was great. Typical old building character right in heart of Ross on Wye.

The hotel was amazing from start to finish, answered all my questions on line promptly check in was great we arrived early and it wasn't a problem room was spotless requested a fan which was in the room when we arrived. Staff friendly and helpful and breakfast was a great variety. We stayed in a family room which gave us a double room a small corridor still attached to this room bathroom then another bedroom with two single beds recommend this hotel to any one.

Property needs some tlc, very steep windy and uneven stairs to rooms - part of the period for the property, but would have appreciated this being noted somewhere. If you have more than an overnight bag to carry it’s quite a task on the stairs! Breakfast was good and staff friendly. Car park has very tight entrance and full of potholes - we opted to pay in carpark behind the hotel

This property is well located in the centre of town with easy walking distance to the river, cafes and town sites. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The breakfast and dinner are very good. The only downside is that rooms are accessed by very steep circular stairs and the car park is accessed by a very tight driveway and limited parking spaces. There is a public car park behind that is easier to access, but Pay and Display during the day. We very much enjoyed our stay in this heritage pub and feel the warmth of the staff made it easy to see past a few drawbacks.
