Lovely hotel in the middle of Axminster, really friendly, helpful staff and comfortable room

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.

Ample parking. Friendly helpful staff. Huge English breakfast included. Bar and restaurant on site...lively place on a Friday night in a good way. Room was very good, but no in-room fridge.

It’s an extremely old building and the floors are uneven it adds to the character and charm of the building. I enjoyed the stay

Wi fi was good Free on site parking, a bit tight but ok Breakfast cooked to order, very good and prompt service Evening Meal was very good standard. Staff were excellent across the board. Comfortable Bed, decent standard

The staff were very friendly, efficient and helpful. Our room and bathroom were very clean . Food served was great and atmosphere friendly. Our only issue was that the hotel is on a busy road and as the building is old it has sash windows with single glazing so road traffic noise was a problem to start with but that is something that cannot be helped.

Really nice overnight stay, close to the train station. Clean and tidy room. Lovely breakfast to start the day. Staff were lovely and welcoming. One tiny bit of feedback no toilet brush! 😂

Car parking was good when we arrived with parking for about 8 cars. The hotel was very clean and decorated brilliantly for halloween. Check in went very smoothly and the room we were allocated was excellent and spotlessly clean. Facilities were good with tea, coffee and biscuits, more than most other hotels. The evening meal we had was excellent and the service was great. All in all a great stay and will go again if in the area.

Staff were very friendly and helpful. Our stay was from Boxing Day and a few food items had run out but generally the breakfasts and the one evening meal we had were very good. A very narrow space to get pasr the bed end to the bathroom in our bedroom (104). Generally a very pleasant stay in a good location in the town and handy for nearby coastal towns. Nice to have oat milk available for breakfast.

The hotel sits in a traffic island surrounded by narrow, busy roads on all sides which makes it tricky to access at times. I expected it to be noisy as it is a pub as well as a hotel but it was OK. There was a lot of seagull noise - they do not seem to sleep at night. Overall, it was a fairly good experience.

I loved my room and the tram weee great. However some of my party complained their rooms were cold. Also unfortunately on the night we stayed there was a big Christmas Party and it was very noisy. With all that being said I would stay at the George again because the staff were great.

10/10

Check in was quick and efficient. Liked the ability to enter/ exit from our own hotel backdoor and not have to go through the bar area. A little bit noisy but it's in the center of town and my room was above the beer garden area. No lift, I was on the top floor. Might be a deal breaker for some.

When booking through Expedia i put in bank details which confirmed the booking. I was booking for staff members and on arrival they were told they needed to pay. Expedia doesn't make this clear that even though you give bank details payment is not taken at the time and you will need to pay at the hotel. Very frustrating when booking on behalf of others.
