Looks great. Not sure about the area...

Lovely surroundings food for afternoon tea very nice and waitress very polite and helpful

Clean n tidy friendly staff, great service, good food , covid procedures in place

Love this hotel! Really charming and full of character. But still renovated, with good showers and comfortable beds. Staff was really welcoming and did their best efforts to make sure we had the best time there. The restaurant is also very good. We had dinner twice there and really enjoyed the ambience and food. I recommend it!

Lovely stay at this grand hotel. All the staff were excellent as was the food, dinner and breakfast.

Unfortunately only stayed one night for our wedding anniversary, wish it was longer.
Hotel is beautiful, rooms superb, the bed was so comfortable,but best of all was the evening meal we had,the food and staff were fantastic.
Looking forward to finding an excuse to go back!!

An old fashioned "grand"hotel, now slightly faded. Friendly and helpful staff

Only stayed one Saturday night. Reasonable value. Great location but hotel needs to be refurbished. Looking tired!

Very nice looking inside and out, food amazing. All very clean

Fine dining resturant - Very disappointing for a Michelin * rated resturant. Not suitable for vegetarians, contrary to as advertised. I am not a vegetarian. My review based on carnivores food.

Nice sized room but needs a refurbishment to bring up to today's standard for a top class hotel. Fantastic food and service in the restaurant.

Afternoon tea was lovely, particularly the scones and tea (good selection). The service and atmosphere were both excellent.

A lovely afternoon tea very relaxed and friendly and we were able to stay as long as we wanted. One of our group requested gluten free food and it looked just like everyone else's and she was very impressed. Would recommend to anyone

Excellent hotel. Great location. 2 lovely restaurants. Very relaxing, snug Bow Bar. Slightly dated rooms. Fantastic helpful and friendly staff. Service in the Brazz restaurant and bar can be hit and miss, food excellent thought.

Having visited The Castle Hotel for many years now I can honestly say I have never been disappointed. This last weekend was no exception. I had arranged a surprise weekend stay for my husbands 60th. I emailed The Castle several times to finalise details and to answer any questions I had. The response was quick efficient and helpful. On arrival our room was gorgeous! We had room 17 which was uber clean and comfortable. The bed was soooo comfy and huge! Our room looked out onto the car park and square. Considering The Winchester is opposite and another bar was close by,it was surprisingly quiet. (May be different in the height of summer with the windows open) The bathroom was also sparkling clean and the toiletries smelt divine.
The shower was so gorgeous I didn't want to get out! Towelling robes were provided and decent bath towels too. In a good sized fitted wardrobe there was plenty of room to hang clothes there was also an iron, ironing board,hairdryer and safe.
The staff were helpful and friendly and the surprise chocolate birthday cake arrived exactly as planned. The food in The Castle Bow is delicious and the breakfast was incredibly varied and yummy.
Honestly it was such a fabulous weekend.
What I love about The Castle is that its sumptuous and elegant but not stuffy. We are very much looking forward to our next stay at this great hotel. Thank you so much.

Excellent relaxing break, food and service. Highly recommend

Great hotel in the centre of Taunton. Wonderful breakfast made fresh and you can see thr chef in his kitchen.

Food and service here for afternoon tea was unexpectedly great. The car park was full but to be expected midday with meetings, guests, and social gatherings. Worth looking around if you get the chance but it's now the kitchen that makes it.

Excellent overall great food perfect quality fantastic staff room was huge with a lovely comfortable bed what a great location and historic setting 10/10

Went to the Bow Bar. Scotch served with loads of ice, bar staff serve that as standard without bothering to ask whether you want it or not. Every glass our party of four used had a chip. Comfortable though

Excellent friendly and incredibly helpful staff. Food was fantastic. Definitely worth a visit.

I've been staying at and using the castle hotel for thirty years, and unfortunately it's only ever had a downward trend. It used to have a Michelin star at its restaurant which it lost some years ago. I called to make the reservation, and was told to leave a message, and I would be called back. I wasn't, and called again three hours later. I stayed last weekend, and on arrival was unable to gain access to the car park. I called the reception whilst stationary at the barrier, and again got voicemail. I left the car, and went to the reception, who was on the phone. People were waiting behind my car. There was no porter available. I was given a room on the third floor; the lift was out of order. Breakfast the following morning was in the brasserie, with a buffet style. No one came to my table. Then on ordering breakfast from the front section, and it not arriving after twenty minutes, I chased it up with the same chap, who said that he'd given the order to the waitresses. It's a nice hotel, but its management and service levels are deteriorating, and it's now only a three star hotel.

Room basic but comfortable. Bar nice. Good central location but was noisy at 0600 as market was being set up. No sleep in for me

Hotel was in a great central location with parking on site. The room was spacious and had a pleasant decor. Breakfast was full of choice and well cooked. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

I attended the Castle Hotel for my brother's wedding .we started with champagne being served in the garden .Our glasses were kept topped up , the staff were provided a great service .We then went into the hotel for the 3 course meal .The food was second to none ,and again the service was fantastic ,and our glasses of champagne kept topped up .The hotel has a lovely relaxed atmosphere ,and the staff very friendly and always helpful .

Good service. Top rooms
Spacious. 2 good restaurants.

It was only ok really,l expected more.
The coffee was ok lve had far better in coffee 1. The staff were friendly enough but service could and should have been better. Part of an order was forgotten and had to ask for a knife ,which really you shouldn't have had too.
All in all a bit of a dissapointment and l can't say lm in any hurry to return.

Beautiful hotel, very old fashioned but just on the right side to feel quite whimsical. Place has so much character! Room was comfortable and clean, only single beds were available for my stay yet breakfast was empty so not sure if they were actually fully booked? Wide selection at buffet and quick service. Had a great stay and will stay again.

The breakfast is superb. The staff lovely. The room ok, but considering I had paid for a delux, it was a little dated and tired. Great central location. My car looked like a local friendly albatross took a liking to my car, complimenting it by a copious amount of defecation.

Very good location. Room looks dated but is still very clean and the bed is soft and very comfy.

Nice sized room but needs a refurbishment to bring up to today's standard for a top class hotel. Good food in the restaurant

Great central location. Very pleasant stay, comfortable room and bed. Breakfast- service a little sparse tasty food but unremarkable .....did have delicious fresh orange juice and real sausages though!

Good location in centre of the city. Comfort average. I had a one person room and it was at the 3 stars level max. I think it should have max. 3 stars.

Excellent staff with service too match also clean rooms throughout always willing to help or information .

Just spent a lovely night at The Castle Hotel Taunton, all staff were very polite and helpful, lovely room and bathroom, meal in Brazz was really great the service was excellent and the manager, Adam, was exceptional.

Beautiful building. Friendly staff. I can highly recommend the afternoon tea - absolutely gorgeous cakes and savouries.

Nice hotel, but a little tired. The Castle is centrally located and amazing from the outside. First impressions are good, the lobby and bar area are lovely. Once we got to our room the scars appeared. Could use a refurb to be honest. Our sink was dripping and none of the furniture in our room matched. For the price of the room we expected more.

Nice town centre location with a small pleasant bar.

Very friendly waitress. The place is very charming and the afternoon delicious. It is actually better than the Miles place in Taunton, fancied and tastier.

Great venue for a Christmas party. Food was good and staff were friendly.

Excellent service and food, wide range of teas to taste.

Beautiful, quiet hotel. Really good food and comfy beds.

Great service, great food, good times

Absolutely fantastic. Stayed for our wedding night and was greated with champaign and a card. Great service. Great place.

Spent an afternoon at The Castle Hotel for a high tea baby shower. Fantastic food and service. The decor is beautiful and the staff could not have been more helpful
