We enjoyed our two night stay at the Duke on the Test! The room was immaculate! I saw staff cleaning another room and from what I can see, they go above and beyond in how they clean each room! We ate three meals at the pub and the food was delicious. The staff were very helpful. Overall, we had an amazing time and we hope to return again one day! ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/3432803f-3903-4579-af64-2b506079eb9f-1746132950079.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/89df7132-28d7-4ebf-87c8-c6c2cb1726d5-1746132953475.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/722b7c5e-d0c0-4f35-bf4e-376299f8a10d-1746132953971.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/8e3215a9-a4ab-45a5-9044-d00145e225f2-1746132953603.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Wendy Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Bryan Sep 4, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Really enjoyed this hotel/ pub the room was very smart clean and well maintained.
