I had a great time staying the night in this cosy hotel/bar. One of the staff members, I recall her name being mya gave us excellent info on what to do around the area and had amazing energy making the place feel even more comfortable than it already was

Lovely room, good bathroom, friendly welcome and service, soft duvet and sheets, large bath sheets, only downsides we're a sagging mattress which was quite uncomfortable and shouting people in the courtyard at 4am for about an hour who were not guests of the hotel.

The hotel is nice can get very noidy Fridays and Saturdays but as its a bar its understanding. The staff are really nice the rooms are fine but need more chairs in there and a small fridge is ideal. Best bathrooms than 5 star hotels

The room itself was a distance from the entrance. Shower did not work and when someone in the adjoining room used water it could be heard and then took a while to go silent once more.

This hotel appears to have forgotten that customer service is important: - Expedia website says there is onsite parking - they have built on that so this is not available - web site says that restaurant is open until 8pm - I arrived at 7:30 and was told that the kitchen was closing (admittedly they did say if I ordered quick they would do dinner) - after dinner I asked for a coffee and was told machine had been cleaned so there was no coffee available - I had been given a key ring with 2 keys, so I assumed one was for the room and the other for a door into the building. I went out and when I came back I couldn't find a door I could open, eventually I found an emergency exit that was not closed so got back in there! - you have to order breakfast the night before with a time, however the food did not come until 20 minutes after the time - they start at 8:00 and it appeared that everyone was waiting for breakfast by 8:00, its a bit late for a weekday start. I must say that the breakfast was great, a nice freshly cooked breakfast, even the scrambled egg was lovely which is very rare.

Let down by untrained staff
The Angel, like many obviously suffer from a lack of trained staff. Its tge first time i have ever irdered a bottle if wine which i had to open myself. I was over charged for the meal also. The room had no remote for tge tv, no spoon to stir your tea or coffee and no wifi code information or indeed any information in the room such as check out time, muster points, room service, menu or the fact that they stop serving food at 8pm. Its a shame, as the room and the venue are very tadtefully done.

Had email about breakfast being at 0800 but was informed that it was delayed till gone 0900. Had to leave for work before that but no offer of re-fund ;-( No food after 2pm on Sundays, thankfully there is somewhere else to eat. But even bar was closed by 8pm Reluctant to give wifi code.

Excellent option for anyone looking for accommodation in or around RWB. The manager and staff are all fantastic and the breakfast each morning was really good. Location is on the main High Street, so only steps away from local shops.

An overpriced stay
Enjoyed the bar experience with a nice atmosphere and good beer. Friendly staff with a warm welcome. The room was tired and in need of refurbishment. Felt it looked very dowdy. Average breakfast.

Poor
Check in was good. Rooms were basic but adequate for an overnight stay.Not up to Premier Inn standard. Bathroom floor tile grouting was very bad in both rooms. Breakfast was a fiasco. We were not informed we had to order what we wanted the night before. There was only one member of staff serving breakfast who was stressed. We were asked if wanted full English and not given any other options. We had to ask for juice, tea and coffee. This was brought in individual cups. We asked for cereal and we’re told there was cornflakes or crunchy nut cornflakes. We ordered two cornflakes but crunchy nut cornflakes arrived after the cooked food. When we asked for more coffee we were told he hadn’t got any left! This was with at least another hour of service due. We spoke to a lady at reception and explained we were very disappointed. She turned out to be a housekeeper . She was very nice and went and got the manager. He was very offhand and said they were not doing breakfasts anymore as it was too much hassle and refunded the cost of our three breakfasts. We were not impressed by him. However the housekeepers were very pleasant and helpful. We warned other family members who were staying at The Angel the following night about our experience. Some had stayed there previously and were opting out of breakfast as it was too slow. So it wasn’t just an off day that we experienced! Overall it was ok for an overnight stay but not one We would like to repeat.
