Great room, food and staff
Lovely one night stop over at the Old Vine. We arrived on a sinday and decided to have a sunday roast in the restaurant. Highly recommended the restaurant, food and service was great. Staff are all very knowledgeable, friendly and polite. We were shown up to our room and was supprised at how big it was. Very comfortable and perfect location for a stroll around the town and cathedral. Slight down side was noise fron delivery vehicles early morning but the hotel had provided ear plugs and they worked a treat. We would definitely stay here again

Another wonderful stay!
This was my second stay at the Old Vine this year, and I have had another lovely time - excellent service from staff, and a beautiful, comfortable, spacious and clean room, with wonderful amenities. The breakfast is also amazing, and a huge selling point as it is included in the price. I will definitely be coming here again! Thank you!

A fabulous stay!
Had a fabulous stay at this gorgeous traditional inn. Rooms are beautiful, spacious and clean, with good amenities, such as a Nespresso coffee machine, and complimentary items in the fridge and bathroom. Service from staff was wonderful and friendly, and the included breakfast is amazing. Location is exceptional, right on the square opposite the cathedral, with easy access to the high street and the train station. I loved my stay, and definitely hope to stay again. Thank you to the Old Vine!

Anniversary
The hotel was lovely nice big room parking just outside with a permit supplied by the hotel. Room was very clean with Tea and coffee facilities bottled water and juice in the fridge. Range of different teas and hot chocolate in a box. The breakfast was very nice with wide variety of options from cereal fruit to English breakfast tea and coffee served. The only issue was we returned back to the pub for a drink about 9:30PM we ordered some drinks then 5minutes later the bar staff said it was LAST ORDERS at 9:30 they started to clearing away and washing down the bar areas which made us unwelcome. I did say we were residents at the hotel but still wanted us to order more drinks before they closed ?!.

The rooms were spotlessly clean. Each room has its own modern bathroom (also spotless) and breakfast is included in price. You can have breakfast in your room or downstairs in dining room. Staff is friendly and welcoming. The location is nothing short of perfection. While your there make sure to take a walking tour and a tour of the cathedral and great hall. We just loved our stay here! We highly recommend it!

Great little hotel, kept very original, right opposite the cathedral and within 1 min walk of the main high street. Parking is just on street. So you have to hope there's a space close to the hotel, they give you a badge to put on the dash board so you can leave the car there. If you were unlucky you might have to walk a half mile from the car to the hotel, then back again with your car badge! But this is typical of hotels in the centre of ancient towns and cities, they won't have their own dedicated car park, they're too old.
