When you stay here you have to allow for an old building with old plumbing etc. the parking is excellent, location second to none, easy walk to the town, and the breakfast, make sure you don’t miss it,

Would I recommend it, omg yes but don’t expect 5 star but do expect lovely staff, history all about you and memories that will last a lifetime

This was a unique opportunity to spend a night within the cathedral close. My room within the college is used as student accommodation from time to time, although when the student use is quiet, the rooms are opened up to the general public. My single room was basic but with a comfy bed and en-suite facilities and it was lovely and quiet. It was such a treat to stay in this historic property for a night. The breakfast was excellent with a good selection of cereals, pastries, hot breakfast options and fruit

Great central location but a bit drab

One of the best things about this stay was the experience of being in the cathedral close. We loved the atmosphere, the history and being right in the centre of the city. That parking was included was a big factor in choosing this location.
The slight downside was that the rooms are very basic and functional. 'Drab' might have been another way to describe ours.
The staff were friendly, though, and the breakfast was varied and tasty.

I’ve been staying at Sarum College for many years for a variety of reasons for events within Salisbury. The staff are always friendly & check-in and -out always painless. The ‘Basic’ single rooms are comfy with a sink, single bed, a big cupboard, table/chair and a comfy chair. The bath/shower room & toilet are always very nearby. The included buffet breakfast is fantastic. Whatever you fancy from a cooked breakfast, continental or just fruit or yoghurt. If there’s a big group of people staying and there’s an evening meal planned you can pay for the meal too. Always cooked from scatch and always tasty.

I loved staying here. I went for the most basic room, so the toilet and bathroom were in the corridor and shared. But it didn’t affect my stay at all. Location is amazing right outside cathedral. All the staff were friendly and helpful. Breakfast was included which was great, again really helpful staff. Can’t think of a bad word to say about it. And it was great value for money.

Also a car park with a few spaces .nice benches in park across the road .reception staff were very helpful and helped me out with directions .

Room 313 had a view of a flat roof and the constant noise from an extractor fan. Whilst the noise stopped at 6pm it spoilt our stay. We were told that an alternative room would be prepared and then told that we had to stay put!
Tranquility and peace & quiet were sadly missing from our overnight stay.
The breakfast was good but served on cold plates 🙁

A nice, clean and central place to stay. Décor in room a bit dated. Lovely full English breakfast. Limited parking places. Very helpful staff. Would be happy to stay again if ever in Salisbury.

Wonderful as always

I have been staying at Sarum College yearly since 2012. Although the staff have changed over the years the welcome one received is wonderful. The breakfasts continue to be wonderful with something for everyone.

One night stay

Room basic but immaculate. Had the things you need and not the things you don’t (no tv) but has Wi-Fi. Beds cosy, breakfast excellent. I’m coming back again. It has a Christian community feel to it. Very welcoming.

We liked the serenity of the area and the view from the room, and the lovely people.
Being complete strangers to the town we had some difficulty in finding Sarum college, which was frustrating for us.

Saturday night in Salisbury

Very good 1 night's stay in Salisbury on a Saturday night in March. It was the second time i had stayed at Sarum College, but the first time as a couple and in the large double en suite rooms. Very pleased with the size of the room, quality of the en suite bathroom and the cathedral view - towering over the inner courtyard. Very good cuoice at breakfast, good quality sausages in the cooked breakfast options and nice croissants. Would come again.

Cosy, convenient, quiet. In the beauty of the cathedral close and right in the centre of town.
My room was spotless, lovely and warm with a cute little toilet and shower and towels. Staff were super helpful ahead of time and with check in.

A wonderful suprise. Perfect location in the heart of Salisbury overlooking the Cathedral, welcomed by friendly staff, pristine decent sized rooms, fluffy towels, easy parking, extremely competitively priced and a great fry up for breakfast. Pound for pound probably the best place i have stayed in for 30 years. Thank you.

I went to see Jethro Tull Christmas at Salisbury Cathedral and this was the perfect safest way for a female lone traveller like myself to complete my task and I was not disappointed.
Unfortunately as i brand new lone traveller i had to learn a couple of lessons: first if you book 1 room and then add another room later you will be asked to move rooms.
Second if you are staying around Christmas you may be at the mercy of extremely noisy party goers staggering home. I was too scared to ring Reception for help but after speaking to the wonderful and very caring Sarum College reception staff I definitely would if there is ever a recurrence of such behaviour.

An oasis for the weary traveller

What an excellent find. Warm and welcoming it was just what I needed. The staff were very helpful the breakfast was all you could ask for and the shower was hot. I left my tech at home and had a most enjoyable stay with my radio and book for company. I highly recommend this little gem for the discerning traveller.

Disappointing

I had forgotten how small and cramped the rooms were. Not really a problem as I was only staying one night while in. town for work Didn't use the shower in my room due to black mould. Very disappointing considering the price of B&B for one night. Made reception aware of this issue next morning. I wasn't looking for anything other than an apology and a show of interest which weren't. forthcoming. Will not stay here again. Over priced. Got a better deal from a 4 star hotel minutes away.

Great location and the best breakfast ever!

I loved my stay but if I could wave a wand a new matress- or a topper as the springs have gone. Also the water pressure in the shower was very low.

We were in room 313 which is on the third floor (there is a good lift) at the rear but all night long there was a droning from within the building which prevented me sleeping all night. I have reported it so others do not suffer. However, it may turn out to be something they aren't able to correct so do ask when booking Everything else however was very good. Morning breakfast was very good before we had to vacate at 9:30am. Would rebook but not that room (or location in building).

Lacking

Not allocated the room I booked, no shower just a bath. Had to rearrange the twin beds to obtain more space between them. Booking in and out was fine but the room was not worth the £123 paid. Very dated, partially blocked sink, curtains did nothing to cut out light.

Great value location. Just be alert to bed comfort

This was a lovely place to stay and enjoy the Salisbury Cathedral city experience.

Lots of positive points: quiet rooms, truly wonderful hospitality, proximity to the cathedral and town centre, great buffet breakfast, reasonable price. And the highlight was being able to stroll across the road to experience the beauty of a cathedral choral evensong service, with a superb Bach cantata and wonderful organ music (though you can access that even if staying elsewhere).

Only one disappointment for us, but a material one: the bed size - the double bed was really too small for two people, meaning a few sleepless nights.

Don't expect a ritzy international hotel, this is a simple but comfortable guesthouse, except for the bed issue!

Salisbury is a beautiful cathedral city, with so much history. Don’t miss a visit to Old Sarum and a walk in the footsteps of William the Conquerer and his successors!
