the so called deluxe room could never be describe as deluxe. the bathroom was dirty, the tv was the size of a postage stamp and could hardly see it from the bed, the furniture was in poor state and miss matched, plastic drinking glasses and two pathetic biscuits ,, the breakfast was poor rubber eggs , tinned mushrooms and uncooked tomatoes very very disappointing, the pool area was very tired and not somewhere you would want to spend any time bottom of doors rotted , flaking paint toilets unpleasant. all needs an upgrade !!!!!

A pleasant stay!

A friendly welcoming hotel. Very much on the dated side. The room was large enough for us as a family but a little dirty in places. The swimming pool was a bonus and very much a highlight however requires a good clean in some places. Overall a pleasant stay!

This was our first stay at the Northfield Hotel and likely won't be our last. The building is fantastic, beautiful, spacious and has lovely character. The parking was easy in the Hotels car park and the garden was incredible to walk around & so well looked after. The hotel also boasts a fantastic pool, jacuzzi and gym. We loved the jacuzzi. With Minehead beach literally a 2 minute walk as well as the main High Street just a stones throw away it was so convienent and nice not to have to drive unnecessarily. Plenty of shops nearby, restaraunts, pubs and more to keep all entertained. The hotel staff were amazing; inviting, friendly, smartly dressed, polite and couldn't do enough for us and our small dog. That is another reason we chose the North Field Hotel as it is wonderful being able to include our dog on our holidays as he is as much a member of our family as children would be. There was plenty to keep him entertained with the large garden to explore and the beach has a year round dog friendly space for him to go running and digging on. He also loved his sausage breakfast supplied free of charge by the Hotal staff. Highly recommend.

Neil

Liked: Room comfort
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities

Comfortable but with much room for improvement.

Deluxe room was spacious but the bathroom was nothing like luxury. Small taps and basin. Missing shower riser cap. Very small shower door. Reception hole-in-the-wall type arrangement with receptionist sitting down does not give a good first impression. Basically it was the hotel office with lots of clutter and doubling up as a reception. Breakfast was terrible, possibly the worst I've experienced in the last few years. Overcooked eggs, under cooked bacon and sausages. Everything litterally swinming in a centimeter of liquid grease. Also, any restaurant should not allow customers to sit with dirty plates in front of them for more than a couple of minutes at most. Ours were finally cleared but I noticed that other people left their table with mountains of dirty plates still on the table. Overall the hotel is comfortable but I wouldn't stay here again and found it to be quite overpriced for the level stay you can expect. I guess it all depends on what you are used to. Perhaps staying in a seaside hotel attracts people with different expectations.

The hotel does have a couple of positives – the view from the property was lovely, and the road leading up to it was quite pretty. Unfortunately, the overall experience was disappointing. The building is very old and feels extremely dated, with parts that seemed unsafe. My room had a strong smell of damp and clear signs of neglect, including flaking paint, damp patches in the corners, and black mould in the shower. On top of that, the swimming pool was in terrible condition and wasn’t properly maintained, which was very off-putting. Overall, the stay was uncomfortable, and I felt the condition of the facilities fell far below acceptable standards. I would not recommend staying here unless major improvements and renovations are made.
