The hotel was interesting enough and not horrible. But there were some deficiencies. The exterior entrance doors are very narrow and there is nobody there to help you with your luggage. Or to even hold the door. If you are not very strong and need some help it might be a challenge. The front desk clerk when we checked in, was completely indifferent to us. When we had a problem with the Wi-Fi, she was condescending and never did get our issue straightened out. The Wi-Fi there did not work very well and if you have to work while you are staying there that may be a problem for you. We asked to waiter for help with the Wi-Fi and he said he’d help us with that and then he never came back. The room was OK except for the huge dip in the bathroom floor that made you feel kind of drunk when you walked in and the shower had a sour smell and what appeared to be mold on the walls. It was warm and no AC, which would be fine, except the window didn’t stay open and even if it did, they were pigeons roosting next to the window. I liked the idea of the hotel and the exterior was very attractive. But out of seven hotels we stayed at on this long trip. This would be the only one with a negative review.

Great location just outside of Bath but the hotel is very dated and needs a refurb. Rooms are clean but dark wood furniture and bathroom facilities definitely need an update.
Breakfast was average in a very old fashioned dining area and buffer layout was amateurish compared with modern hotels.
That said, lovely location and great pub at the bottom of the driveway!

Overall Rating: Poor

Great potential and friendly staff, but rooms desperately need an update.

We stayed at the Best Western Limpley Stoke Hotel on the 16th May. While the property has so much potential and the staff we interacted with were friendly enough, the room itself was incredibly disappointing.

Our room was in desperate need of an update and had some clear maintenance and security issues. The bed was highly uncomfortable, and there was a four-way extension lead hidden away under the desk. The radiator thermostat was also completely broken, meaning the room was far too hot and we were forced to sleep with the windows open all night. Furthermore, the bedroom door did not close properly; we only realised upon checkout that it required a forceful, extra hard push to actually lock and secure it.

The biggest issue, however, was the complete lack of privacy. There was no curtain or blind in the bathroom. At night, anyone in the house directly across the way could see exactly what you were up to, meaning we ended up having to use the bathroom in the dark.

As for the food, the breakfast was just okay for a hotel breakfast. It certainly wasn't the worst we have ever had, but it really wasn't worth the extra charge.

It is a real shame because the hotel has wonderful potential and the team members are pleasant, but the state and security of the accommodation really let our stay down.

Front staff varied - from excellent to just lip-service. We were upgraded - con! It meant we had a room on the third floor with no lift and a range of stairs in all directions. A mish-mach of furniture - not quite classy or executive as claimed :-) The water pressure was very low and the temperature low as well. We reported it but nothing was done to rectify nor were we even approached to clarify.

My husband ordered a sandwich for dinner - yes a sandwich and he knew what he was ordering but was still taken back when it arrived - literally a sandwich I would make for my child’s school lunch. 2 pieces of white bread with a slice of salami, some cheese and mayonnaise. Really for a restaurant???

We stopped over for the night to visit Bath, lovely peaceful place, lovely scenery but bit away from the main Bath area from bars and restaurants. There was nothing much we could eat from the dinning menu so drove to Bath to get a bite to eat. May be more choices on the dining menu would have been great. The breakfast was lovely and Hotel very clean. It's a nice little getaway for a chilled out stay.

We had travelled about 190 miles for a wedding, arriving about 12:30 and looking for suitable facilities to change in, only to be offered the use of the disabled toilet. Far from ideal, but we managed.
The room like the hotel looked dated, with only 1 packet of biscuits for the 2 of us, only bathroom amenities was a small round of hand soap, a pump dispenser of soap and shampoo over the bath, and the shower wasn't up to much either. The location and views were really nice.

The internet/Wi-Fi kept cutting off intermittently and I was constantly having to sign back in to it, which was really annoying. On my last day it took me 7 attempts to sign in to it, which is ridiculous.
Breakfast was good especially having fresh milk with tea - so hate long life milk.
The staff were really friendly and extremely helpful - can't praise them enough.
We did have a fire alarm go off at 3.40 am one morning, which turned out to be a false alarm. None of the staff said anything to anyone in the morning, which I found very bad, as an explanation of being woken at 3.40 am by an alarm which sounded similar to an American tornado warning was not fun!

The views from the hotel are breathtaking definitely something you miss when coming home.
All members of staff had a smile on their face and were very welcoming.
The bar is lovely 2 open fires were perfect to sit next to and relax for the evening.
Town is about 20 minutes drive I don’t know about bus service.

A little out of the way.

Was surprised there was only 1 disabled parking space in a fairly large car park.
Rooms showed this was an old property with frayed, faded threadbare furnishings in places. Room was compact with I would say a 3/4 bed and not a double. En-suite was also compact. Linen and towels were lovely. Breakfast and evening dinner food was excellent. Great service from our server Caitlin. I just wish we had been told there was a wedding being held there on Saturday as we would have cancelled our booking as evening there was only the Avon room available for us to sit in that was freezing, so we spent the evening in our room as we didn’t like to impose on the wedding party. Gentleman on reception afternoon/evening his name began with E was also very helpful. On leaving Sunday morning my car was blocked in by a wedding guest and needed to request it to be moved as I needed to get away.

Lovely hotel. Not as convenient for Bath as hoped.

Nice hotel in lovely location with stunning views from our room. Staff very helpful and attentive. Hotel generally clean but needs some investment.
The concern arose as there was a wedding at the hotel while we were staying which made it very busy and noisy so we did not want to use the restaurant for dinner. It became very apparent that getting to Bath or another nearby town for dinner was extremely difficult without using our own car. Public transport is very limited and taxi drivers didn't want to make the journey.

We stayed one night when returning to Devon from a family holiday in Portugal. (Via East Midlands Airport).
The hotel is in a beautiful location just outside Bath, where spent the day after. Like many of these old buildings it does need some work, but I'm sure that would be horrendously expensive.
It served our purpose and was extremely good value for money.

Very hard bed, flat pillows. Beautiful grounds.

A good night sleep is important to me when travelling so I was disappointed in the cheap hard mattress (felt like there was no padding over the springs) and flat pillows.

This meant I had significant pain and a poor nights sleep the two nights. I did ask for a mattress topper and bigger pillow for night two but they couldn’t accommodate.

The windows open which was nice and the grounds are beautiful.

The hotel is an old manor house and the interior is lovely with a very nice lounge area.
