Top The Market Place Hotel Reviews

White Hart Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Comfortable, clean room. Great value for money. Second time I've stayed here and I'm sure I'll be back again"

Town House in Central Wells with parking

8/10 Good

"This was a lovely place to stay so close to the centre of Wells and all that it has to offer. We had a safe and secure place to keep our bicycles and a car parking space as well which is hard to find in the centre of Wells."

The Ancient Gatehouse Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The hotel was lovely, very well situated with wonderful views of the Cathedral. The staff were extremely helpful and the breakfast was very good, with local produce and additional extras - nothing was too much trouble. The building is very old and I would assume listed so the decor reflects that in keeping the original features such as the steep stairs which were actually fine to climb. Overall lovely stay and would definitely stay again."

The Nave, Cathedral View - Hot Tub - Free Parking & WiFi- Pet Welcome

10/10 Excellent

"I absolutely loved my time at the Nave, it far exceeded my expectations! Really nice enclosed area, comfortable and everything I would have liked for my stay. I'm definately going to go back and would highly recommend."

Chapterhouse - Hot tub - Free Parking

10/10 Excellent

Spacious Townhouse, Private Parking, Central Wells

10/10 Excellent

"We enjoyed our 6 nights at the wells townhouse. The house was clean and well appointed. Will was quick to respond to any questions we had and the location couldn’t have been more perfect, just minutes to the city center."

The West Front, Cathedral View - Hot Tub - Pets - Free Parking & WiFi

10/10 Excellent

"Such an amazing get away. Was meant to stay 4 nights but decided to stay longer. The place was very tranquil and views amazing. Located very close to Wells. A very beautiful village with lots of history. Michael was very welcoming. Anything we needed was no trouble. He told us some amazing places to visit. We got to see the farm and meet the cows. Definitely will be going back."

St Etheldreda's Cottage, lovingly restored and impeccably presented

10/10 Excellent

"A beautifully decorated and welcoming home. It was a pleasure to be able to stay there. Everything was provided that we might have needed. No problem parking in the adjacent street. Very good bus service to Glastonbury where we spent a lovely day and buses to plenty of other places if we’d had a longer stay. Wells is a lovely and quite compact city and we had a great time just pottering round all the interesting places. The cathedral is magnificent and well worth a guided tour. The only downside was the journey home with very long traffic jams! Thanks to Helen and Mark for their hospitality."
