It isvery old building which adds to tis charm but makes access to first and second floors for over 8o's difficult. I probably would not have booked the stay had I know about the incredibly steep and narrow stairs to our room. The staff in the main were friendly and helpful

Great value stay

We enjoyed our stay at the George. Highlights were the staff, quality of breakfast and value for money. Our room was a little noisy due to traffic, which would be the only downside to our stay.

A historic hotel with lovely staff. The only downside was the previous occupant of the bedroom had left towels hanging behind a door and they didn’t get removed.
