  Closed for staff training unfortunately on the night I booked so can not comment on food or service. Had to walk elsewhere to have a drink. Left early hours for airport and the continental breakfast was a nice touch. Location good. Will book again for the night before departure.

  This review relates to the restaurant and bar area of this hotel. I visited The George for an evening meal. We had been driving all day as was flying from Bristol airport. We were welcomed by Alby, who took our drinks order and took us through the menu, including the specials. He was well presented, professional and engaging. He gave us a lot of detail to help make a very difficult decision on what food to eat as it all looked so amazing. The first course was served by Stella. Again she was totally engaging asking how our day had been and again gave us more information on the menu. Stella had an infectious smile and really spoke with pride about The George and its food. She also was very smartly dressed. Both Alby and Stella again come over once during the meal. Both starters and mains were wonderful and another member of staff (Adam) engaged us regarding deserts and coffees. He told us more about the George and its facilities. What a wonderful start to a holiday. Now the food abroad and staff attentiveness needs to meet the standards of The George

  We had a meal at the George pub on the 31st of August 2026. When we entered pub there was no one behind the bar so we waited. Eventually someone turned up walked past and said I’ll be with you. He did eventually come back and said can I help you and we said we’d like to have a meal? I’d have to check with the kitchen went off come back said yes you can have the meal so we sat down got the menus order drinks the drinks turned up ordered our food the food then turned up weren’t offered another drink, even though we had empty Glasses had to ask for them got another drink had our food finished our food then asked for the BILL the BILL came and they had added a tip on the BILL Of 10% of the BILL now unfortunately you give a tip when you decide you have a good meal and good service we weren’t overly impressed so we wouldn’t have given a tip. You don’t expect the establishment to tip themselves when I asked the waiter to remove the tip, he asked why I pointed out to him that if we want to give a tip, we will give a tip. they do not decide whether we give a tip don’t quite understand how that works obviously a lot of people don’t even notice because of this we won’t be using the George at back Well again.
