Our room stank of Garlic from the restaurant. We had to sleep with windows wide open to breathe.

The room photo was taken through some sort of fish eye lens - a picture of a double bed means just that - a double bed. No room. No space.

Cups dirty.

Spend a tenner more and stay somewhere nice.

“Very noisy, a bit smelly and would never return”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 October 2010

We stayed here while walking the St Cuthbert's Way and it was a big mistake.
The room was okay - but quite stuffing / smells and a little dank.
It did have a big TV which would be nice if it could be heard. Our room was above the pub and faced the street which meant that it was very noise till around 4am.

Stay somewhere else.

“Clean, great value and Biker friendly”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 September 2010

Our group of four professional blokes and one lady were quite suited with this straightforward, no-frills 'pub with rooms' in the centre of a bustling border town. Our rooms were clean but basic, and we were warned that we would be at the front overlooking a typical Friday/Saturday night scene with the pub entertainment going on until 1am below. I retired at approx 12.30am on the Friday with the locals at full pelt; a warm night with the window open, the curtains cut out all outside light - a hard days ride in the saddle and 3 pints of Carlsberg, I was out like a light in my comfy bed! Only my mates snoring disturbed me! Breakfast was chosen the night before and was freshly cooked..plentiful (and I can tell you these guys can put it away!). Wooler is a great base for this biker-heaven and will visit again. The Italian restaurant behind the pub was a good recommendation (w/end booking essential) and our hosts were keen to have our bikes covered and secured at night. Didn't have an evening meal here but all the tables were busy on both evenings-tells us something? Anyway, back in Lancashire now..and I'll probably be calling everyone 'Pet' tomorrow!
