    Quiet hotel, had a really great service. In overall the room was great-sized and well heated and with hairdryer as well as DIY breakfast. Milk, croissants and cereal provided for breakfast was excellent! Its location in Oake was exceptionally nice, right by the anchor inn, the pub and Public Transport.

    amazing steak
    friendly staff
    quiet room
    limited bar options

    A hidden gem!

    Had a super chill 2 nights. The steak here? OMG, way better than any fancy place in St Louis! Laura and the staff were so nice and really helped with my health stuff. My room was comfy and super quiet, perfect for sleep. Just wish the bar had more drink options.

    helpful staff
    delicious food

    central inn near good parks and landmarks for weekend strolls

    I enjoyed a restful stay with helpful staff and delicious food, making it easy to explore nearby attractions like the picturesque French Weir Park, just under 6 km away, and the fascinating Museum of Somerset, also less than 7 km from the inn.

    Really good food quality, especially the steak!

    Shower pressure could improve. It felt too weak.

    The calm setting of the Anchor Inn, with beautiful decor and comfortable furnishings. The staff were friendly, and it was so convenient having a lovely restaurant on-site with great food.

    Better transportation options would be helpful for seniors.

    peaceful atmosphere
    transportation issues
    public transport woes

    The stay was incredibly enjoyable, especially after long days exploring the nearby attractions. The food was exceptional, particularly the steak, which was on par with some of the best I've had. I also appreciated the comfortable bed that ensured a restful sleep. Just a note, if you're relying on public transport, it might be wise to have a car, as local transportation can be a challenge.

    cozy breakfast
    sun terrace
    dated room

    Had a nice 2-night stay where I really enjoyed the cozy breakfast brought to my room and the lovely sun terrace for lounging. The peaceful garden area was perfect after a long day of exploring. The room felt a bit dated and needed some TLC, but overall, it was a great experience! 🌼

    Tranquil Setting with Really good Dining Experience

    The innovative breakfast service delivered freshly baked croissants right to my room. The dining experience was excellent, particularly the delicious roast lunch that surpassed my expectations. The shower pressure could use some improvement.

    great stay but minor issues

    We enjoyed a spacious family room with a good stoney garden. The comfortable beds ensured we had restful nights throughout our visit.

    Some amenities could use an update.

    local ale
    value for money

    Just a good match for a walk in the evening in Oake with extraordinarily good value for money. The local ale was wonderful and really added to the experience. Consider having a car for easier travel to local sights.
