We wouldn't have stayed here based on the reviews but other members of our group chose the Falcon over the Premier Inn a few yards away, based on price. It is everything the reviews say - tired décor, patched up broken windows - but also a warm welcome and a great breakfast. The room was warm and quiet and the... More

Excelent management. The owner/manager is a very helpful person. Very good value for money. A little far from town centre. Taxi fares in Taunton are on the high side. More

A warm welcome and a very good breakfast (could not fault it at all to be honest). Room was generally clean with comfy beds but the decor of the whole building requires a major update. To be blunt if you wish to time-travel back to 1976 then this the b&b for you otherwise travelodge it instead. More

When we arrived we were a little surprised at the state of the exterior of the hotel. It looked quite frayed at the edges, as did the inside, but then we met the Graham, the host, all was forgiven. So hey, it is frayed at the edges but after being there for a short time we thought it added to... More

We read the other reviews and went ahead and booked anyway.The owner Graham is so pleasant and friendly it would be hard to offend him. We were made very welcome and shown to our room shortly after arrival.The room was spacious, quiet and with clean bedding and towels.Yes,one may say the place could do with a lick of paint.We need...

I have titled my review, call it a day, because that (in my opinion) is what the owner of this establishment should do. People are turning up to this place expecting to stay in a idyllic country retreat judging by the photo in the ad. dont be fooled. the whole place is in need of a major structural and cosmetic...

We found the overall first impression of the hotel fairly disappointing, with a serious amount of rotting in the wood work and in genral disrepair. When we were shown to our room, we found it to be acceptable upon first impression, but the bath needed to rinsed out before we could use it as it was covered in hair.....nice!. The... More

The car park had a number of cars which were not road worthy and looked as though they were from a salvage garage. The bay window to the dining room had a hole large enough for a fist to go through and this was 'repaired' with a plastic bag......from the outside!! The whole hotel was dirty and simply looked as...

Had a over night stay at the Falcon. We were with 3 friends all of whom had separate rooms, we had a double. The hotel looked as if it had seen better days, peeling wallpaper, damp patches and in need of a lot of TLC. The rooms were relatively clean but the grouting in all of our 4 bathrooms were... More

This was a terrible hotel. My friends and I were down for a party, and between us booked four rooms. The double room was not bad, but the rest were not very nice. They were pretty shabby, not that clean, and with very out dated bathrooms. My room had a fire surround that was just propped up against the wall!... More
