So we booked a double room - we were given a room with the smallest double bed I have ever seen and with one chair. I asked to change. They offered a larger room which must have last been decorated circa 1990. They couldn’t do any better because we’d booked through Expedia they said. What??? Why does a hotel with empty rooms give you a bad room? To punish you for not booking with them? It was v poor service, whatever the reason . . .

We had such a wonderful stay at the castle hotel. The only feedback was the receptionist on check out wasn’t as friendly as the lady that had checked us in. She appeared to be confused with the communication around breakfast timings. Over all it was a wonderful stay, in the perfect location and it’s such a beautiful hotel

Special Christmas
Christmas is always particularly special at the Castle with staff having made a very special effort to make it even more special than usual. It makes an excellent place to stay, right in the middle of Taunton, for shopping with those special independent traders you won’t find elsewhere.

A most relaxed and enjoyable stay.
We had a most enjoyable stay. The friendliness of the staff was exceptional. They went to a lot of trouble to find us an alternative place for dinner as they were fully booked. Also they checked our trains to make sure they were still running without being asked. This was beyond expectations. The breakfast was great. Plenty of choice and a relaxed atmosphere.
