We didn't plan to eat here, but due to convenience we ordered lunch, which was so good we returned for dinner, then breakfast (which was included). All in all, a great place to stay.

An oldie but a goodie.
The Ye Olde Bell Hotel is reputed to be the oldest hotel in England. Despite the fact it has been operating since 1220, it offers the same level of service and luxurious accommodation as many of today’s modern hotels have to offer. I would go back in a heartbeat.
