Fantastic hotel in the centrum of Taunton.

The room was smelling the freshest, the night staff were rude and lazy leaving residents waiting out in the cold trying to get in and there was a fun fair 2 metres from the hotel with loud music and megaphone. Overall very over priced for such a dilapidated and aged building that is in dire need of updating.

10.0 / 10.0

Amazing huge room with wonderful views, really comfy bed, clean bright modern bathroom. Extremely lovely stay at The Castle overall. The staff were really friendly and helpful, the parking is right outside, and breakfast was chilled and relaxed with plenty of eating options. Can't wait to stay again!

For that special break, this Hotel definitely has the edge. The wedding we attended was very well managed by the staff at the Hotel.

Friendly staff, central location, lovely restaurant... And a castle!

10.0 / 10.0

For a hotel in he middle of Taunton it was excellent, had to pay to park the car though, but parking very convenient. Staff were helpful and friendly. We enjoyed our stay.

5.0 / 10.0

The vegan breakfast options were extensive, the staff were so helpful and kind to us. The room was super clean and the building itself felt magical. We ended up walking around the area and finding nice shops and cafe's as well as the market on Saturday.

6.0 / 10.0

The shared parts of the hotel are lovely but the rooms, especially the bathrooms, are a little dated and lack amenities commensurate with the cost. The breakfast should be included in the price.

10.0 / 10.0

A classic older hotel. Very comfortable with separate reading snd lounge areas. Rooms sre good size and restful de ore. Ipdated bathroom.

5.0 / 10.0

I stayed here while excessively jet lagged and booked the Mendip suite for extra comfort. The hotel was very comfortable and very well appointed. The staff were friendly and courteous, the bathroom spacious and clean, and the breakfast was superb (especially nice to see Black Pudding on the menu!). Would very much recommend for anyone looking to spend a night or two in the charming town of Taunton. For anyone looking for a decent pub nearby, the Ring of Bells was excellent.

A unique privately run hotel

4.0 / 10.0

Cheeky to charge for parking here. It’s a bit of a run down town centre

5.0 / 10.0

Great stay in a nice town

10.0 / 10.0

Hotel is near to everything and really nice restaurants and pubs. Easy parking. Nice check in staff. Room was clean and spacious. Lovely hotel full of character.

3.0 / 10.0

I was very underwhelmed for the money it cost. No fridge or aircon, bottle of water that was left us was in direct sunlight so too warm to drink. Honestly, it was disappointing and I have stayed in better value hotels

3.0 / 10.0

The most stunning exterior, and there were lots of nice staff, who did try earnestly to help when I shared my concerns. The hotel was clean and our room was a really good size. The website shows beautifully decorated luxurious looking rooms, however the hallways and our room clearly have not been touched (since the 80s I’d think) and there is bit of a musty smell - which you’d forgive in the original part of the castle. With a revamp it would be amazing, but sadly they are oh so tired - it must be so tough in today’s economy. Perhaps a didfernent price point for revamped rooms might help? Awful and painful grip tape inside the bath was the worst thing (a less than relaxing soak in the morning). Overall it is just not as advertised on the website and the prices felt high considering this. Very poor quality breakfasts, especially the sausages and eggs royal. Don’t bother with the travel cot, it’s hard as nails. Rather a strongly worded welcome to Somerset in the guest handbook was definitely worth a read though! Didn’t want to take pictures to be honest.

5.0 / 10.0

All very impressive and good value on the basis of my booking

Stopped overnight during a trip to Somerset It was fine for one night - but a lot of steps and no lift.

4.0 / 10.0

Fantastic building! Perfect location. Staff are so friendly and helpful. Just some rooms are in need of a little TLC so it depends which of the rooms you stay in. The room we stayed in just needed updating but the bed was so comfortable and a very good night sleep was had!!

4.0 / 10.0

Beautiful hotel. Historic and stylish. Staff were lovely and incredibly friendly and helpful. Unfortunately, Taunton was very loud and noisy for a Tuesday night!

6.0 / 10.0

Large traditional hotel. Room was spacious but cold, bathroom was even colder. Food in Brazz was very average in a huge soulless room.

4.0 / 10.0

An atmospheric hotel, well managed and maintained. Excellent breakfast buffet

6.0 / 10.0

The hotel is past it's best, tired and shabby. The dining options are v limited only a brasserie / bar. Service is underwhelming, staff have generally low levels of enthusiasm and not v welcoming. Parking is expensive. We had asked for a menu before coming to the property and got no response. We were not informed we had breakfast included. This was an anniversary event and was far below expectations for the price paid. Would not come here again

8.0 / 10.0

Lovely looking building, easy parking however wasn't greeted on arrival and had to ask someone to help carry my bags to the room, overall though an enjoyable stay.

A very pleasant stay in a beautiful castle . Olde worlde and dated but felt the 12th century ambience all around me. Staff very friendly.

everything was beautifully presented and comfortable. A couple of tiny irritations such as the inability to control the temperature in the room.

Times may change, but standards must be maintained. The Castle does this in spades.

On arrival our room was not made up with 2 beds so we had to wait an extra half an hour for it to be done (we arrived at 6pm). My mother is 79 years of age and was tired. Neither of us slept through the night either as there was no air conditioning and had to leave the window open. The bar next door was loud all night. Worst night’s stay ever and the hotel is not cheap. The hotel needs a serious upgrade. The staff were nice though so I don’t blame them!

Stayed overnight for a wedding very comfortable

4.0 / 10.0

Lovely comfortable hotel with parking right in town centre. All hotels now charge for their parking so I expected this. Staff were very friendly and yet professional. Room very comfortable and breakfast was excellent.

4.0 / 10.0

Hotel was nice, but the location was shocking. Upon arrival at 4pm on Wednesday, we were greeted with a group of topless guys all drinking in groups at the entrance of the car park. This only got worse later in the day when the group got bigger. Lots of anti social behaviour including someone being chased with a knife outside just past midnight resulting in a police attendance and chase. All in all would not stay in Taunton again.

10.0 / 10.0

Very good accommodation with very accommodating staff, i would love to stay again in the future.
