Description: The Hotel consists of 20 bedrooms and is located in the heart of the city, just a short walk from the Salisbury Cathedral, shops, restaurants and local attractions. We are just 20 minutes’ drive from Stonehenge and the rolling countryside of Wiltshire, with all its historical gardens, houses and walkways. We are also a great business stop-over with free WIFI throughout and located just 5 minutes from the Salisbury train station, 40 minutes from Bournemouth or Southampton airport/docks and 50 minutes from Portsmouth harbour.Sundays and throughout the week, we offer a quiet, relaxed environment. On weekend nights, the busy venue bar on the ground floor is open until 2am and is part of the Salisbury club circuit. The rooms have secondary glazing, but you may hear street noise in some of the rooms at weekends. The hotels bedrooms do not have telephones or air conditioning and they have been fully refurbished in a contemporary style and offer lots of extras -free wifi, flat-screen TVs with Freeview, plentiful tea, coffee and hot chocolate supplies. Bedrooms are accessible via stairs or an original 1930' wood-panelled passenger lift. All rooms have ironing boards, hairdryers, ceiling fans, a small safe and a high standard of towelling and bedlinen. There are heated towel rails in all bathrooms. Parking is just two minutes away at pay and display car parks. (Loading bay at the hotels entrance for check in/out.) We have adjoining rooms to suit families or groups, along with a selection of double rooms with king sized beds or single rooms. You can enjoy breakfast from 7am until 10am Monday to Saturday and from 8am until 10am on Sunday. Food is available all day until late, with a range of traditional English fare including locally sourced steaks, burgers, homemade pies and great fish and chips.

“thursday is grill night!”

We have eaten here many times and have always had good value/friendly staff/good food. Last week the 8oz rump steaks were rather tough even though cooked to our specification, so mentioned to waiter--and word back from the chef not only replacing steak but upgrading to 12oz rib-eye which was fabulous. Well done to all for exceptional customer service--and now we... More

We met friends for a lunchtime catch up and this was a brilliant venue. On arrival, a minor bar issue (dirty glass) was rectified immediately and without question. A good choice of meals on the menus,... More

“Fantastic food in Salisbury”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 February 2013 via mobile

I have dined here 3 times now, and every time has been excellent. I am a 'pescatarian', so limited to some dishes, but there was still quite a few dishes for me to choose from. The food is always delicious, extremely flavoursome and cooked perfectly. The staff are also very friendly. The bar/night life is great too, with a great... More

“Only a restaurant visit but good experience”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 January 2013

In Salisbury for the day and found this place, several offers attracted us eg: coffee and muffins or cake, main meal discounts for seniors. Very good service given by 'The boss' and Ashley, friendly and quick. I had ham egg & chips, wiltshire ham was lovely, 2 eggs and good chips, good portions and hot. Would definately re visit.

“Nothing too exciting.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 January 2013

This place certainly doesn't deserve a scathing review, just an average one. The food wont blow you away but it is pretty inexpensive and so is therefore reasonably priced. A good place to pop in for a cheap lunch if you want to avoid one of the chain pubs (Whetherspoons, Slugs...) and the customers that frequent them! Positive points include... More
