Stayed in the William King Room - Spacious room and bathroom which was clean and offered tea, coffee, water and various other things. Plenty of clean towels, robes, slippers. We ate in the restaurant which was delicious. Staff really helpful and polite. Breakfast was fine, toast, pastries, cereal, tea coffee and juice. Free parking. Only negative was the bed. It was really comfy but far too low to the floor, the mattress was practically on the floor. It was awful and would be the reason I would not book again. Other than that it was a lovely place in a lovely market town.

The staff were engaging and tried their best. One of the reasons for us choosing the hotel was the photos that showed a Nespresso machine in the rooms, as we like decent coffee. This is not true. The staff know nothing about this and they provide some coffee bags (which was not good). The mattress needs replacing and the bed is so low.

There's lots to like about The Ship Inn. Great location, characterful rooms, friendly staff, great bar and restaurant food. There's clearly a concern for good ingredients for the bar/restaurant food. So why not for guests who are staying overnight? The local bread served in the bar is fabulous - so why serve cardboard bread for breakfast along with cheap, sugary yoghurt and cereals. Weak coffee from coffee bags? We stayed 2 nights and didn't bother stopping for breakfast on the second day.

The heating didn’t work for two nights. Was freezing. The TV’s didn’t work. I’m 60 and 6 foot 2 the first room I was given had a sunken bed and a 4ft height to enter.
After Walking up from a funeral I stopped at the bar to get a drink to warm myself. I was snapped at are you having breakfast? Not would you like a drink. The fire alarm went off and I was asked to go check if my room was on fire. I have never stayed anywhere SO unwelcoming

We had a lovely stay at The Ship Inn. The room was really clean, bright and comfortable and plenty of space to relax in. Nice to have good quality coffee and tea facilities in the room and reasonably priced items on offer in room if you wanted it. Loved the roomy shower in the bathroom. Staff were really friendly and helpful (helped find a taxi). Food in the bar was excellent, and the main menu looked great (we will try next time). The continental breakfast was a prefect start to the day. Thank you.

Such wholesome lovely pub with rooms. Will return!

Fantastic selection of pint on offer. The stout was class. Amazing they had a 3 course vegan menu (couple of options on each course) and the food was super lovely. Nice wholesome pub food but of a higher calibre that you could expect in a restaurant. Delicious. The staff were so attentive. I wish I could remember the person name who checked me in and served (red hair and glasses, so to describe your appearance, but you deserve credit 😁) this person knows how to run a bar/restaurant and is clearly super capable. They even went out to go get me oat milk for morning. Top service!

Very cute place in the town I was born. Went for a visit after many decades of not seeing the town. Staff very lovely. The room had a low ceiling that my husband had to watch not to hit. Bed was comfortable but what made for a not pleasant sleep was that it had no air conditioning! The fan that was provided was not strong at all. It was so hot, didn’t have a good nights sleep 😟

The Ship has a great restaurant where we enjoyed moules frites and beer battered fish, plus bar snacks on other nights. The breakfast was a buffet type continental, with yoghurt, fruit, grapefruit, toast, croissants and orange juice and cereals at tables laid in the restaurant.
The Ship is in good upkeep and has a selection of good beers and cocktails.
The staff are friendly and welcoming and we’ll return to stay again.

Lovely hotel , terrible breakfast

Very nice rooms , very spacious , comfortable. Staff were lovely and helpful BUT the bed is a few inches off the floor which is modern and oriental looking but difficult for me because I was carrying a leg injury . Breakfast was terrible . For a hotel that prides itself on its food , (and the dinner we had was excellent) if you’re going to limit guests to a continental breakfast , you have to offer more than Kellogg variety packs, a few slices of processed bread , single flavour cheap yoghurts, croissants that were like cardboard and lukewarm coffee.

Good

The room satisfied our overnight needs. Unfortunately had we known about the steps leading down to the bedroom, then back up to the bathroom, we would have booked a different room. We had to have a light on so we could see when we got up in the night. Due to the age of the property, there were wooden beams which were low. The one over the window is really low, and my husband bent down to put his shoes on, only to stand up and bang his head, very hard. I thought he was going to pass out. I had to drive home as a precaution. Our friends room’s window was higher. If we returned, which is a possibility, we would request a different room. Ear plugs were supplied for the noise from the clock tower.

Room was nice with everything you need, thought we would have Sunday lunch when we arrived but we were told it would be busy at 7 so we went straight in. Food was OK but nothing special, soup had a skin on it and 2 pieces of bread which were very dry, whilst we were eating the staff were moving the chairs and tables around behind us but dragging them so it was noisy and not raxing, Lol. Also at breakfast the cleaner was hoovering whilst we ate so again noisy. It's a lovely place but just needs a bit more fitness in the bar/restaurant.

The stay was comfortable and quiet. The only problem we had was we were not given a key fob and was given a code to open the door when they were not open. The numbers given did not work and therefore we were locked out at 2100 hours in the pouring rain for several minutes and only gained access when another guest arrived who had been supplied a fob. This should not have happened and was a bad slip by management.

Have stayed here a number of times. Well maintained to modern standards, though it is an old building, so it has some quirks, like a low door frame and unexpected steps. Staff welcoming and efficient.

Room was spacious, and clean.
Bathroom was a nice size room and clean
A bit noisy but that was expected as our room was above a pub bar, but it all quiet down when it closed.
A continental breakfast was offered…..

After a 5 hour drive to get to the hotel we were greeted with the news that they were going to shut at 7.30pm on the day of our arrival due to the football. We had booked a meal for ourselves and friends from the area at 6pm but were told we needed to change to an earlier time then had to leave as they weren’t going to be open ! No prior notice was given and we were looking forward to an hour or so chill and freshen up before our meal.. obviously this couldn’t happen as there was no time.
We had to fill out a pre order form for breakfast as the hotel were getting this delivered from a cafe up the road.. we arrived in the restaurant 5 mins before breakfast was due to be served.. 20 mins later still no sign of it so we then had to walk up the street to find said cafe and order it there .. it was lovely food at the cafe - but all a bit farcical..
Room was clean & ok, bed was very low to the ground and the clock over the road strikes every 15 mins and chimes the hours.. so you need to use the supplied ear plugs. Staff were very friendly but whoever the manager is needs to prioritise the customers needs, had we known before we arrived they intended to close early we would have booked somewhere else.

Two night stay in a lovely pub

All in all a very pleasant weekend stay. Room was beautifully decorated with a fully equipped fridge. All staff members were very helpful and friendly. The only disappointment was the breakfast. It wasn’t supplied by the hotel but bought in by nearby café. I went for the full english on the first morning. Unfortunately luke warm fried egg and trimmings were served in a cardboard box with soggy toast. I decided to try the porridge on the second day but it was in a disposable pot and was basically tepid milk and inedible. It’s a shame because everything else was lovely. I would definitely recommend this hotel but I would pop in the nearby café and have your breakfast served hot and on a plate.

The Ship accommodation was lovely only thing I would change in the room was the pillows and the lack of dressing table or access to a sock and mirror.

The breakfast from outside was in a box, a cook breakfast doesn’t travel well and was cold.
They would be better to offer a continental breakfast to serve yourself.

The staff were great place great

The Ship Inn is a lovely pub/restaurant in Burnham. We stayed one night after we had dinner there with old friends. The food was fantastic and the rooms are really nice, very large, clean and very comfortable. Breakfast is pre ordered and brought in, at the time you stipulate, from a small take away cafe up the road and it was really good.

Almost perfect

The room was wonderful and the staff really friendly. We ate in the restaraunt and the steaks are fantastic.
I would love to give 5 stars but there is one thing that I had a problem with: I realise that there are Health & Safety rules but the light in the fire exit sign is so bright that it illuminated the entire room and I found it very difficult to ignore and get to sleep. I would definitely stay there again but I will bring a blindfold - or some Duck tape to stick over the light.
