Eat & Drink

Sample British specialties at Old Mill Restaurant located fairly close to this Salisbury hotel.

“The riverside location and historic architecture create a peaceful atmosphere, enhanced by the building's 15th-century origins and views of Salisbury Cathedral; the friendly team contributes to a welcoming stay. It's my opinion that the dining elevates it further, especially given the riverside terrace and the use of local ingredients. A solid choice for those seeking character near Salisbury's attractions.”

Acceptable location, several issues

easy accessno hot waterloud water pump
The location is quite good with easy access to the town center.
I found some aspects disappointing. There was no hot water one morning. This made showering impossible. The staff did not communicate updates about the water issue. The room was also right next to some loud water pump. The hotel provided earplugs but this wasn't a great solution.

Decent Stay at the Riverside

excellent locationgood breakfastwater meadowno informationmissing menuwifi issue
The location is excellent! It has views across the water meadows. There is also an easy path to the city. Breakfast was very good. It included cooked options just as I wanted them.
I had some issues. There was no basic information in the room. I needed the Wi-Fi code. I also needed the restaurant menu. I was on the 3rd floor. I had to go up and downstairs to find basic info. This info is usually in a little folder in the room.
