Corsley Vacation Packages

Another lovely stay at The Riverside Hotel, highly recommend this hotel.

The hotel was well situated right by the Cathedral, just walk across the road and through the gated door and you were in the grounds of the Cathedral. Covered in scaffolding as the roof was being replaced/repaired as advised on their website,and stood up well to the recent storm! It is 800 years old and there is no lift as it is a grade 1 listed building. As such the stairs are a bit wonky and would probably be difficult for very elderly or disabled people but the friendly staff were there to carry our suitcase upstairs. Room was good, but tv remote didn’t work properly ( not batteries as I swapped them with the ones from the other remote), and heating seemed a bit temperamental, but fan heater was provided so all good. Lamp hanging out ceiling was not good but still worked. Probably needs a lick of paint but as they say they are concentrating on the roof at the moment. We stayed for dinner on 2nd night and that was super - went for the South African/Portugese Trinchado. Disappointed with breakfast on final day as it took the team 40 minutes to deliver 1 eggs Benedict and 2 poached eggs on toast despite asking the waitress twice what was happening! Only resolved when the young man in charge got involved - he was very good. Similar thing was going on with some other guests. No parking at hotel but could park just round corner from hotel, 2 or 3 minutes walk, at a discounted rate for £10 All in all we were satisfied with the majority of our stay but would go back again.

My only criticism was a very noisy air conditioning unit that made getting to sleep difficult. Breakfast was excellent with eggs cooked to order. Reception staff were very helpful.

We really enjoyed our stay at The George. It was authentic, absolutely clean as a whistle and the staff were incredibly helpful and nice. It is an authentic old inn so there were some creaky floors but it fine for us. The staff and the food were amazing. I would stay here again.
