Located opposite the city's cathedral, this centuries-old building is as in-keeping with its…read moresurroundings as it is possible to be. Although the hotel is keen to point out that the property is "steeped in history", aside from a visit by the poet Tennyson in 1854, ascertaining as to who or what that refers is difficult. That said, Ann of Denmark (wife of James I) almost certainly attended a feast here in 1613. Besides, there can be no doubting that somewhere as deeply woven into the fabric of such an ancient city will be brim-full of heritage.

I had a vegetarian Sunday Roast here. It was delicious. The gravy was tasty, the Yorkshire pudding…read morewas puffy, airy bit very satisfying. Presentation of my plate was delectable and of course, I ate every morsel of the food even though the portion was huge. The rest of the gang had the meat Sunday roast. Their gravy was even tastier. We were a large group of over ten, three adults and the rest are children ages 10-19. The waitress worked hard to accommodate us by jig-saw puzzling small tables together to make us comfortable and felt important. I love this place. Of course I love EVERYTHING about Wells.

However the female bartender was completely rude she did not want to take our drink order and when she did she had someone else give us our drinks and charge us. Mind you I hadn't said anything to this woman other than my friend and i wanted 2 beers. She then went on to call me fat and say that the men sitting at the bar would take her to town rather than me, rather rude and promiscuous language but ok we took our seats. Then I heard the guys at the bar say that the real issue was not that I was fat it was that I'm Mexican. So I didn't order any food for fear they would spit in it. My companion had already ordered so he ate it when it came out. When she brought the food she came back saying "sorry about that" and I said it's ok, but then she made it clear that she was talking to my male companion and not apologizing to me. I was also told that if I had any issues that I could leave. I get that this pub has been standing for many years but the owners are stuck in the 1500s if that's how they treat their customers. For reference I am Mexican American and I visited Wells in 2019, I would not recommend this pub to any people of color. I got way better service at another pub just around the block. I also visited London, Bath, and Wales and this was the only location where I was discriminated against.

They have an outdoor swimming pool for the summer months, and several fireplaces for the other three seasons. It's tricky to find - I think the address is "The End of Hawkers Lane" which is the only way to describe it. Just keep driving to the top of the hill.

A beautiful building in lovely surrounds, an outdoor pool (Summer months only), delightful (and large) rooms, a small point but wonderful thick and fast drying towels (and robes provided), broadband, decent breakfasts. One thing that didn't bother me at all but might bother some others was a mccaw (very large parrot) in the entrance to the hotel. I rather liked it but if you don't, thismay notbe the place for you

The George Hotel and Pilgrims' Inn, originally known as the Pilgrims' Inn of Glastonbury Abbey, is the oldest purpose built pub in the South West. By the mid 1800s, it was known simply as the George Hotel, before a name change combined the two. It stands out on High Street not only because of its age, but it's an imposing edifice, three storied with mullion windows and a front facing of paneled stone. Above the arched front door are three carved panels bearing the coats of arms of Glastonbury Abbey and of King Edward IV. The original features continue inside with oak beams and an atmosphere which at times can only be called medieval.

I understand this has recently changed hands so we tried the food again and it was delicious. I had the steak and Ale pie and the banana and honey pancakes and my friend the Macaroni Cheese and we were both comfortably full and very happy with our choices. My only gripe was the only 2 choices of cider, Blackthorn and some other one I don't remember the name of. This is Somerset - go wild ;)! All in all though a really good experience - I would recommend this to anyone passing through
