This is a great place to stay in Glastonbury and placed in the middle of the town. This location does have its detractors as you hear much of the street noise so if you are early to bed you are not going to get much sleep. The room we had was comfortable and clean. The staff were welcoming, helpful and very customer orientated.

The people were very nice, food was good, the issue isbthat the room was not cleaned. They propably have not hoover the carpet in over a year, unfer the bed was really dirty. Accumulated dust and things from other guests. It is a shame to see a beatiful property poorly taken care of.

What a piece of history! What a shambles!

There’s no denying it, The George & Pilgrim is bursting with character and history. We stayed the night in one of their premium four poster bedrooms at the front of the inn. Very comfortable room, but shower needs attention. Service was appalling, borderline becoming a joke. After a gruelling journey we were kept waiting 35 mins at reception trying to check-in. In the end I queued at the bar (understaffed and bar blind) to check in, then told to wait at the reception.. Breakfast was a joke, coffee jug empty and the thrumpy woman who was organising it seemed angry and would walk away whilst talking to you very quickly. It all seemed a bit too much for them and made us feel like we were just an inconvenience to them. Dried up bacon (one rasher) an egg, four triangular hash browns, no sausage, a yellowing sour tomato, beans that had been on service before and to top it all .. crappy supermarket bread. I mean we paid a premium price for this? I love the building but the way it is run? Nope, just don’t work for me.

Great location for a Glastonbury Town experience

The staff are fabulous. Very friendly, welcoming and accommodating. Location is perfect for Glastonbury. Centrally located and there is a car park at the back. We stayed in room 14 which is in a newer part of the building. It feels like an extension. When I say newer, I mean it’s not 500 years old. But it is very dated and needs an overhaul. I should’ve taken pictures but the grouting is missing on the tiles of the bathroom floor, the bath screen where it meets the bath is yellow and horrible, the shower doesn’t work properly, and the doors to all the rooms that we passed along the corridor to our roomwere filthy. The beds themselves were comfortable and felt firm and new. The sheets and towels were crisp white and in good condition. The room itself was quiet and had everything we needed. Breakfast was good.

Super cute place if you want something that gives you a taste of history. The building it beautiful and there is a olde worldy pub on the ground floor. Staff were friendly. However, with the old comes no lifts and dragging suitcases over cobblestones from the payed parking in the back and then up windy staircases. Everything has that damp feeling which also doesn't smell the best. Obvs no air con and the room itself was dated (not in the good way) . VERY central so if you want to be in the very heart of the town then its perfect and you can walk to everything.
