Ye Olde Bell Hotel & Spa

Lunch with friends in St Leger bistro - a very friendly, characterful hotel and restaurant with a varied lunch menu. We chose from the Festive menu and were all very pleased with our food. The service was attentive, but we weren't rushed and there was plenty of time between courses.

I spoilt myself with a long weekend over three nights and I thoroughly enjoyed myself, thanks to the lovely staff, pleasant hotel and an amazing Spa. Before arrival I arranged Spa and Dinner reservations and the friendliness of the staff continued on my arrival with a warm greeting from Hanna. I arrived earlier than planned and had a tea in the bar area whilst waiting for my room which was ready around 2pm. I chose to have an afternoon Spa from 3-6 to start the break Dinner on the first night was in the 1650 Restaurant which has a nice feel about it. Service was impeccable. Breakfast on all three mornings is probably the best I've had with lovely fresh fruit and to order hot meal. On Saturday there was a wedding and although there people sat outside on the lawn, it wasn't overly noisy. My room overlooked the lawn and as others have said it can get quite hot since the sun sets n that side, although the fan helped with the open windows. I had a full Spa day with 2 treatments on Sunday. This included a lunch which was delicious. The arrival and registering process is very personal with being shown to the locker areas. I like the idea of not being able to take bags into the Spa area and not reserving sun beds. They move towels and gowns if left in place for a while. It does allow you to try the various seating areas. It's cosy but does not feel overcrowd. The day went by quickly with so many rooms to try and the treatments. Dinner for the second 2 nights were in the Bistro which has the same many but with a relaxed setting. It's the people who make or break a hotel, venue etc and all the staff I encountered were exceptional. Nothing was too much and there was always a friendly smile and warm welcome. I will be returning soon, it was so nice.

Beds okay but pillows quite hard Thought drinks were very pricey 2x half lagers with the SMALLEST ( requested) amount of blackcurrant and lime respectively were almost £10 The cordial costing £2.20 yet probably only had about 1 dsp in each glass So not impressed with that

Often stay here for business, rooms are lovely and staff are incredibly welcoming and friendly. Always a good bit of food in the restaurant to. I stay here often for business trips to the local area and wouldn't think of staying anywhere else.

SMyself and my wife stayed two nights for a Birthday Party whivch was held at the hotel. Everything was 100%. Staff more than helpful. Food great, service perfect. Room very good. Highly recommended in every aspect. We would definitely go back.

Best spa experience I’ve been to, my daughter and I had a lovely full day spa and overnight stay at Ye Olde Bell. Can’t fault it, we had a great time, the staff were very attentive, the amenities were fantastic and the treatments we had were wonderful. We will be going again!
