Week end break visiting friends. Relaxed hotel with parking, convenient location for the town centre. Lovely room with a comfy 4 poster bed and views over the garden, though the shower room was quite small. Staff were friendly and the breakfast was good.

Nice stay at guest house

Good location about 9 minutes walk to station, area not noisy, nice selection of tea and coffee, and a nice pack of biscuits. I missed breakfast as I had a very early train so cannot comment on that.

Blorenge House is a great choice in Taunton.

Blorenge House is a great place to stay in Taunton. It is located in an old mansion, so the rooms have high ceilings and are not a basic hotel room. It was comfortable, the breakfast was good, and the location is excellent. It is a 10 minute easy walk to the train station ( our main objective) , an easy walk from the Avis office if you are dropping off a car, and a very easy walk into the city center where there are many interesting restaurants. The owner and staff were also very helpful; they even carried our bags up the stairs. We would definitely stay there again.

Stayed due to a wedding within the area.

Lots of potential not yet reached..... effort is being made to improve the hotel experience etc however it is not yet value for money. Can see that if this effort to improve continues then it will be a quality hotel and worthy of quality prices.

Great hotel to stay if watching the cricket.

Great hotel. Took my dad for a treat to watch the cricket in Taunton. Walking distance to the ground, so excellent location. Plenty of places to eat on the walk back to the hotel. Breakfast was lovely, room clean, perfect for an overnight stay.

Nice find

A more old-fashioned hotel in what has been a substantial period house, a semi-detached that has been unified as one.
