Lovely little gem!

Check-in nice and easy. Bed and pillows super comfy. It was like lying on a cloud and being swallowed up! Great selection for food. We had lunch and went with the fish n' chips. Light batter and non greasy and tasted delicious! Great portions! Also had breakfast and again good selection. Service was excellent! Lovely location off the green and a 2min walk to the sea front with lovely shops in between! Stayed here before and would recommended to anyone to stay here!

Noisy and overpriced

We stayed here recently and, whilst the room was clean and nicely decorated, the overall experience was hugely overpriced — at least £100 too much for what we received. We paid £240 for the night, which is frankly excessive given the shortcomings. Shortly after booking, we received an email informing us there would be no parking available due to the Wells Festival. This was frustrating, as we would have factored parking into our decision had we known beforehand. The bathroom was a particular let-down. It had a shower over a bath that had clearly seen better days, a badly rusted radiator, battered old soap and shampoo bottles, and no loo roll holder or hand towel rail. To make matters worse, the bathroom window looked directly onto the roof terrace — and wasn’t frosted — much to my husband’s surprise when he walked in half dressed. In the bedroom, there was no fridge — which feels like an odd omission for a room at this price point. The noise level was also high, which made for a restless night. Breakfast was another disappointment. The black pudding was inedible, and serving streaky bacon on a British breakfast plate seemed an odd choice. The dining process was disorganised — we ended up in a bit of a disagreement with staff over “allocated” tables, which could easily be avoided by simply using table numbers. Perhaps the price was inflated due to the festival, but even so, the value for money simply wasn’t there. Overall, we left feeling that our stay was worth the money

Lovely pet double room. Could do with a good dust as ornaments very dusty. My dog dripped water from her bowl on the bathroom floor- I soaked it up with the bath mat and was astonished at how dirty the floor actually was. Very disappointing.

I stayed at Arch House - a short walk along the road from The Globe itself. I enjoyed the quiet away from the hubbub of the pub and the refreshing walk to breakfast ... but that might not suit everyone.
