The George Inn, hotel in Wells

Boasting exclusively brewed beer, homemade food and a pub garden, The George Inn is located in Wells. 3.1 mi from Wells Cathedral and 3.7 mi from Wookey Hole Caves, the property features a terrace.

I booked the George Inn at 7pm on a Sunday evening of a BH weekend after getting rained off from my camping. The place was still busy with the Sunday lunch crowd and clearly the host couple had been flat out busy all day. Nevertheless they were both absolutely charming and quickly showed me a lovely comfortable room and got me a meal and a pint followed by some excellent home made Victoria sponge. Before long I was co-opted onto one of the pub quizz teams and had a great evening in front of the toasty open fire with my new friends. Lovely people who run a great little Inn.

    Our trip was specifically to visit the rural levels and also to catch up on a friend in the area. We did not visit Wells on this occasion so can't comment specifically. However if you want to be well situated to explore the area Wookey Hole and its hotel is a good place to be. Locally there is the Ebor Gorge within walking distance and road access to most of the area is accessible although you must be happy driving on some narrow roads. Hotel is definitely not luxury but is clean and convenient with excellent staff. Good value for money if looking for convenience rather than luxury.

    wonderful little city, easy for strolling / exploring. great history. location for fab cult film "Hot Fuzz" - check out the local guided tour. good places to eat. good market. parking is at a premium; not many places you can park up overnight (check out one of the car parks at the bus station - can park there for 24 hours).

    Good place to visit.

    Good place to visit. Cathedral and Bishop's Palace are really lovely. City centre has a lovely vibe and there are lots of shops and restaurants. It's very handy for exploring the rest of the area and only a short drive from Cheddar Gorge.

    We visited Wells Cathedral, which is an absolutely stunning place, the staff are very welcoming and the donation system is very reasonable. The only thing I would say is if there is anyone with Auditory sensory issue, check if they are cleaning the organ before going in as this did dampen my experience not knowing at the time. The library is up a set of s prial stairs so not accessible, however if you have someone willing to run up and take some pictures, it does look like a wonderful place.

    Wells is a beautiful, small city, dominated by it's immense Cathedral. We very much enjoyed both. We spent time within the Cathedral, enjoying it's beauty, a service, and a concert. The shops and restaurants were varied and good, and the market exceptional. The Bishop Palace Gardens were our final treat with it's restful water gardens. All in all an ideal short holiday destination.

    It is always a pleasure to come back to Wells and to the Swan hotel. We visit quite regularly, and the Swan always offers a welcoming and homely atmosphere. Staff is very attentive, always kind and helpful. Rooms are all different and unique. We particularly like the coach house, where some of the original architectural features are still visible. The new manager, Martin, is very friendly and went the extra mile to make sure our stay was enjoyable from start to finish. We can't wait to be back 🙂

    The apartment was excellent, a great location, lots of home comforts. Really couldn't fault it. The owners were really helpful and friendly. Would 100% stay here again. Location wise it was great for us as we could walk into Wells (about 40 mins) and there were 3 pubs in walking distance to choose from in the evening. We had dinner at the Burcott Inn opposite and highly recommend booking a table there. Thanks so much :)

    First of all the owner showed us warm hospitality. I really enjoyed the location. The area surroundings around our cute apartment, was beyond my expectations. The countryside was beautiful. I even took a walk and it was so close to the city center. Anyone planning a trip to Wells, consider this cozy studio apartment. Be warned that this place is a gem and probably will book up quickly as the tourist season approaches.

    When we arrived we were given a warm welcome by Holly, and homemade cakes were on offer in the beautiful tea room. We stayed in the Master Bedroom which had phenomenal views of the garden, and of Wells beyond. The breakfast was extraordinary. Staff, grounds, location, all were incredible! Every room was a treasure. We felt like guests at a British country house in a marvelous novel!

    Sarah, hotel owner was fantastic, couldn't do enough for us. Even made her washing machine available to us. Terrific room, tastefully decorated with extras. Great bathroom, clean and functional. All staff in hotel were welcoming. Parking was an issue but made easy with staff assistance. Easy walk up to market square and stunning Wells Cathedral

    What an amazing place to stay! My room had a direct view of the cathedral and grounds, was sublimely quiet, and very well-appointed. Check-in was super easy, the staff were very incredibly pleasant, and the pasta carbonara from their restaurant downstairs was to die for. I hope someday to be able to stay here again!

    Everything you could think of was provided. It was a beautiful apartment right in the centre of Wells. It was spacious with lots of personal touches which made it very comfortable. My sister and I often stay at The Swan Hotel in Wells but this apartment will now be our first go to when booking further trips to Wells.

    Location is second to none. The hotel is located just opposite the Wells cathedral. It is 5min walk from the town center where there is a range of places to eat or have coffee. If you don't mind a longer walk the Weatherspoon pub serves a good breakfast for a reasonable price.

    Wells is delightful and the flat is just a ten minute walk to the centre. It was decorated to a high standard - a real home from home. We spent a lovely time frequenting the many coffee shops and eateries.
