Nice hotel. My only complaint would be it's distance from Taunton town centre. It was a £10+ taxi journey each way if you don't have your own car, and very little close by within walking distance, other than a Harvester restaurant. Although there is a Sainsbury's and a cinema/bowling alley a short drive or medium walk away.

Good room, external low pitch hum

The room itself was good and what you would expect, sadly it was in a place where there's was a constant low pitch hum of an external fan or something. My partner didn't find it an issue but I didn’t get along with it.

For the price I paid, it’s was poor . The room was small and cramped. The breakfast was poor not enough choices and the food quality was poor. I had dinner Monday night the food was very bad everything was frozen and heated up in the microwave including the India Nan bead and price with a drink was £23.50 I told the waitress and she said sorry about that.
