The Chapter House

10/10 Excellent
"It’s an 800 year old building and the floors are uneven and the stairs are whacky, but there is so much charm, it’s part of the experience. Staff was super friendly and the morning breakfast a great start to the day."

The Bridge House, BW Signature Collection

8/10 Good
"We stayed for 1 night at the hotel, in a lovely room at the back, overlooking the river. Everything was spotlessly clean, and the hotel is well maintained. As an electric car driver, the ability to charge the car overnight was a huge plus. Breakfast was good, fried egg, sausage, bacon etc, plus pastries and cereal available. Just two minor quibbles with the room: the air conditioning unit showed the set temperature illuminated with a very bright white light, which stopped the room from being fully dark. Luckily I had brought an eye mask. Also, the temperature of the shower was very difficult to control, the switch from the bath taps was very stiff, then it was either scalding hot or completely cold with very little room to manoeuvre between them. We managed, but a warning sign next to the taps might have been a good precaution. A very comfortable stay overall, and a very convenient location for us, we’ll be back."

10/10 Excellent
"The room was clean with a very comfortable bed and the location was perfect - walking distance to town and quiet. The breakfast included hot items off a menu and a self-serve breakfast bar, more than I could eat. The managers were friendly and helpful. A good value. I will definitely stay here again the next time I am in Frome."

10/10 Excellent
"We were attending a wedding at the hotel and on the day the electricity went off. It was completely out of the hands of the hotel but the staff worked tirelessly to ensure the wedding reception could go ahead. There was no power from 6am until late into the evening but somehow they kept everything on track and the event was a huge success. How they managed to serve such high quality food under the circumstances I don’t know. I’m sure they were all exhausted by the end of the day, but thank you for all your efforts!!"
