Interesting and comfortable, historic hotel

Booking for a family via hotels.com doesn’t really prepare you for the museum experience you get here. Our friendly hosts were kind and helpful. We loved the attached museum and the kids loved that the room was actually a ‘display piece’ too - but magically we were allowed to go past the barriers. I’d plan the restaurant in Popering in advance (especially with children). Interesting and historic hotel with beautiful grounds and very comfy beds.

Hotel or museum?

Its bedrooms in the old house are not sound proof in any way and doors slamming into the late evening with recorded historical voice tapes and a chess games room just outside the bedrooms stop you having a good nights sleep. In my opinion the old house should be maintained as just a museum and dining and kitchen area. It doesn't work as a museum and a hotel. The breakfasts were well presented and abundant in variety and the bread, cheeses and ham super fresh.

A historic property which was wonderfully maintained. The best part of my stay was the staff who went out of their way to make one's stay enjoyable. Had hot weather and could have used a fan as no A/C. Had communal bathroon and shower but not a problem. The garden was amazing and although an older house, the stay was great and would stay here again when in the area. Thank you.

Talbot House has a history that is so important and our stay had extra meaning just for that reason. We really enjoyed chatting with other guests, too. The bathroom facilities were immaculate and the beds were very comfortable. It was truly like visiting a 'home'. I would recommend to everyone!

Experience a Part of History

If you're interested in history, you should stay here. This was used by British soldiers during WWI. A piece of history that you can connect with. A rare experience and well worth supporting. The house is great and filled with history and there is a museum which offers free admission to guests at the hotel. We did share a bathroom, but it was always available and very well kept. I will definitely stay here again.

A lovely, historic place to stay!

This historic place is impressive to say the least. paintings, photographs and signage on the walls were both beautiful and entertaining. The location is perfect for visiting Poperinge and surrounding area.The back garden is inviting and relaxing. The breakfast was delicious in a lovely setting. I highly recommend Talbot House!

Great for a family. Much more than just the museum

We visited for a quirky break while traveling from Disneyland to the UK. A family of for with a 5yo and 1yo, we staying in a room with bunkbeds. The beds were really comfortable with deep pillows. Simon welcomed us at 9pm after a 3 hour drive and took the time to show us to our room and explain the hotel and amenities. It is a very old building, so expect the odd creaking floorboard, but the upkeep was very well maintained. The next day we went for a walk into the town centre, which was less than a minute along the road, where we found a local market. Fresh food, clothing and accessories. We also found a huge garden with a selection of garden games.

I stayed here one night when we were doing WWI battlefield tours. This was a wonderful find. So much world war one memorabilia. The rooms were simple but comfortable. Shared bathrooms were clean and quite private. The grounds and the home are just beautiful. Very much in keeping with the theme of our trip. Highly recommend it.
