Great value stay

We enjoyed our stay at the George. Highlights were the staff, quality of breakfast and value for money. Our room was a little noisy due to traffic, which would be the only downside to our stay.

It isvery old building which adds to tis charm but makes access to first and second floors for over 8o's difficult. I probably would not have booked the stay had I know about the incredibly steep and narrow stairs to our room. The staff in the main were friendly and helpful

A historic hotel with lovely staff. The only downside was the previous occupant of the bedroom had left towels hanging behind a door and they didn’t get removed.

Great weekend stay

The staff were very friendly, efficient and helpful. Our room and bathroom were very clean . Food served was great and atmosphere friendly. Our only issue was that the hotel is on a busy road and as the building is old it has sash windows with single glazing so road traffic noise was a problem to start with but that is something that cannot be helped.

Stay at George Hotel Axminster.

Car parking was good when we arrived with parking for about 8 cars. The hotel was very clean and decorated brilliantly for halloween. Check in went very smoothly and the room we were allocated was excellent and spotlessly clean. Facilities were good with tea, coffee and biscuits, more than most other hotels. The evening meal we had was excellent and the service was great. All in all a great stay and will go again if in the area.
