It was an amazing stay that I had here with a gorgeous hydro mills Maxine works that catches my attention when I checked- in for my 3 days of stay. Good hotel location if you have your own car because there is parking space included for the customers.

Comfortable Stay and Great Location
I stayed at the Holiday Inn Taunton and had a very comfortable experience. The hotel is easy to access, just off the M5, which made it a convenient base for exploring Somerset or stopping over during a longer journey.
The room was clean and quiet, with everything I needed — a comfy bed, a good shower, and a desk area. Wi-Fi worked well, and I appreciated the tea/coffee station. While the decor is slightly dated in some areas, everything was well-maintained.
Staff were friendly, helpful, and professional from check-in to check-out. The breakfast had a good variety of hot and cold options, and the restaurant had a nice relaxed atmosphere in the evening too.
If you want the best of both worlds - traditional seaside fun and gorgeous green space - you've found it in Minehead. Our Minehead hotel puts you in the heart of this charming town and a leisurely stroll from the pretty harbour and promenade. It's less than a mile to Minehead station, as well as the West Somerset Railway on your doorstep: don't miss this heritage ride through the stunning Quantock Hills. If you want to stretch your legs, Blenheim Gardens is just a mile from the hotel, or there's the South West Coast Path and Exmoor National Park on the edge of town. When you're done exploring, you'll be happy to relax in our smart, spacious rooms, each with a 40" flat screen TV and king-size Hypnos bed. Before you get too comfy, be sure to sit down to a delicious dinner at our Brewer's Fayre restaurant next door.

Z Hotel’s location is excellent. Central yet not too busy with lots of eating options (including in-house restaurant reasonably priced), Five Guys burger and Pizza Express virtually next door. Sainsbury and Tesco Express for groceries and tidbits within easy walking distance. Roman Baths and Abbey less than 5 mins walk. Pulteney Bridge & Weir, Guildhall Market all within a hop and a skip away. Room is typical small size but comfortable. Staff is superb and friendly, luggage storage provided with a smile. Love! Bath is fantastic. I can definitely live here and enjoying all the parks. Even in the frigid coldwave, I bundled up and explored all the gorgeous parks & gardens feeling like a Bridgerton extra promenade-ing🤣❤️
Very friendly and welcoming, accommodating staff who are helpful with requests and a fab location right in the centre. Nice breakfasts. Rooms are exceptional value, albeit some areas / parts of the rooms are a little rough around the edges. Would definitely visit again. Thanks for a lovely stay.
Faultless hotel. Great location. Comfortable and clean room and the lady on check in point was super friendly.
Great value for money and defo stay here again
The hygiene was acceptable, but the view wasn't great, even though I booked a room with a view. The staff was very good; one even helped me with my luggage to the room because the elevator doesn't go to the third floor, so there's one flight of stairs to climb. We had a bit of a language barrier – I couldn't understand him, and I'm sure he had trouble understanding me. Plus, the fire alarm went off during check-in, which caused a long delay before I could get to my room.
The hotel is situated on the busy A38 but is not affected by traffic noise. All the staff are polite and considerate and go the extra mile to provide good service The food is outstanding ; beautifully presented and prepared. And it tastes great too!
Good bar too which is imp because there’s little else to find a drink in the village.
Ideal for short or longer stays if you have a car. Taunton is clos for good shopping and the Somerset levels a dozen miles away.
I’d stay there again anytime.
With a stay at Quay Inn in Minehead, you'll be within a 5-minute drive of Exmoor National Park and Minehead Beach. This inn is 0.3 mi (0.4 km) from Blenheim Gardens and 0.3 mi (0.5 km) from West Somerset Railway.
Make use of convenient amenities such as complimentary wireless internet access, a picnic area, and barbecue grills.
At Quay Inn, enjoy a satisfying meal at the restaurant. Quench your thirst with your favorite drink at the bar/lounge.
Free self parking is available onsite.
Make yourself at home in one of the 4 guestrooms.

GGuest UserI'm so disappointed with their service when it comes to cleanliness..I do understand how busy this time of the year,but they should be consistent with it comes to cleanliness.I always choose HOLIDAY IN EXPRESS because I have very good experience last year (NEW YEAR) in scotland branch and it was amazing experience..so I thought it would be the same here in HI Express Bath..We travelled as a family and my son 11y/o is Autistic,with ADHD and OCD as well as allergies...this kind of bed(sofa bed LINEN is unacceptable to whoever will stay there...we were told to wait until we occupied our room for this sofa bed to be ready,still we are not provided with bed sheets for this...really devastating,so sad and disappointing...
LLiam and JennyAttended on Tuesday 27th Feb. Paid a little extra for room with a bath as like the couple ****** we are, we wanted a bath in Bath. My wife's first time ever visiting here. The hotel is a lovely setting, there is history here and all the staff have been wonderful. Close to the station, literally in front of it, and close to everything. Had the great pleasure of having many encounters with Tim, one of the reception staff and I believe concierges. Super pleasant and always helpful.
We had breakfast included and after having that this morning can honestly say it's bang for your buck, with hot food to order including steak and eggs, (best steak my wife has had in the UK), a breakfast grill and a selection of others plus a typical selection of baked goods and fruits. The bar is pleasant and we enjoyed drinks last night before heading up to our room. Strawberry daiquiri we have had many times but the Amaretto sour was an interesting twist with a strong lemon zest.
The only downside to the visit would be the bath/shower experience. Lukewarm bath and cold shower when we attempted it last night. This morning we got hot water for a total of ten mins to share before it went cold again. Not the worst thing all in all but a downside considering the extra pricing for a bathtub room. I was however assured that had I brought it to the desks attention I would have been assisted and I had just done the British thing of not wanting to fuss.
One last perk that made an impact to me; free luggage storage. We checked out early so we could make the best of our time exploring Bath before we ride home. We were offered free luggage storage for even after we checked out so we could come back in quick before our train at 3pm and grab our bags and go, no extra charge. Fantastically useful as the Abbey tour does not allow luggage inside and we wanted to go.
Anyway, thank you to Tim and all the staff at The Royal for making us feel welcomed and our time there special, we will definitely be coming back someday soon and will stay again. - Liam and Jenny Stephenson, Room 109.

GGuest UserWe booked 2 nights for a relaxing spa weekend. Based on it being a spa hotel. We planned on staying in the hotel for the whole weekend.
When we arrived we were told there was no restaurant or bar we can use as it’s only used for events.
We then had some lunch in the spa cafe. Food was ok. Service was terrible.
We then went to the room as we were able to check in. The cleaner was still there. Very apologetic extremely polite and lovely. The room was absolutely wonderful. Large bedroom bathroom and living room.
We went out and found a pub for food. When we returned to relax in the room we found the party was directly below us and in full swing. Very loud and noisy and the smoking area was right outside our window. We called reception but they were fully booked. Glad to say it all stopped at midnight.
We went down to breakfast at 9.30. Not much left and the full breakfast was cold. When we questioned it we were just told”well it has been there since 7” it had just sat on the side in silver trays for 2.5 hours, no heat or option to reheat. It wasn’t edible.
We skipped breakfast that we paid for on the second day.
We then thought we would spend some time in the spa. Ha! Well the pool is small, no where to relax just a couple of plastic chairs, not a spa at all. It had a very small sauna and steam room. The jacuzzi didn’t work it was just a pool of cloudy water with a few bubbles.
Would not recommend. Seems it used to be and could be a wonderful place to be but has been taken over and lost its sole. Such a shame as the building and grounds are wonderful.
I have to add the cleaning staff and lady on reception were wonderful, welcoming and friendly.
KKazovnThis is a bit out of the way but OK if you are touring the area. A rather faded Edwardian large hotel that is in need of a bit of renovation and redecoration to bring it up to standard. Our room was a bit small and showing its age. The staff were friendly

GGuest UserCentral location helps to overcome the cramped feeling staying in the annexe. The car was parked at the other end of town and drop off was difficult to say the least but it is what it is. I had no reason whatsoever to check out the main building reception, breakfast area perhaps a bar and lounge area too because nothing pointed me there! So generally, it was a room in a loft space built to an ”average” measure. I never like shower cubicles where I tend to bang elbows and worry about breaking something when I drop the soap. Breakfast price was horrendous so no inclination to walk in on the hop to check it out for the 2 nights stayed. I felt detached, cramped and in a bed-sit like accommodation. It is what it is.
Aan618The location is far away, but there are buses leaving the center within a few minutes' walk.
The room is quite big and unique. There is also a living room with a sofa.
The receptionist was nice. After a night out, I called an uber on my way back.
