good hotel and nice stay

The location is ideal. next to the rail station and walking distance to many restaurants. Service is very good and staff are friendly. The only minor issue is the wifi connection isn't so good.

The rooms were very clean and set up for tea/coffee making with fresh milk in the fridge. Brilliant hair dryer in the room too and powerful shower in the bathroom which was spotless. The staff gave us a very warm welcome. We dined in the pub which has an extensive menu choice including a small appetites menu. The food was excellent, very well presented and tasty. Would highly recommend dining here.

Good little stop over

Located at the back of the pub, the accommodation was small, but practical. The beds were comfortable and facilities adequate. The room was quite warm and the roof window was the only option for ventilation. There was a few signs of wear and tear, but overlooked. It is close to the main road, so vehicle noise is noticeable. Plenty of parking, and check-in is via the pub, who also offer food. It was okay for a quick stop over.

Comfortable quiet room. Appreciated milk and water left in fridge. Also allowed a later checkout on request. Disappointed that the inn was closed at 6 on Sunday night and they don't offer breakfast. However we were there for a funeral so location was excellent.

Excellent accommodation for solo travellers

As a solo traveler I found my stay (two nights) very enjoyable. The room was clean and spacious for a single room. There were all the amenities, fridge, kettle, towels, parking spaces etc. I felt secure even though my room was apart from the main building. I invited my friend to join me for a meal in the restaurant and we both found it to be excellent. The only issue was breakfast wasn’t served but that hasn’t deterred me from recommending the Charlton Inn to my well travelled daughter.

Excellent food, hot, good choice and reasonably priced. No option to choose breakfast however there is a list in the room detailing menus and prices for nearby establishments who offer breakfast. We opted to visit a large Tesco store less than 5 mins drive away. Pub was closed when we departed and unsure how we could check out therefore simply left the key in the door. Room was a good size and clean. Brita kettle, small table top style fridge and crisp white bed linen and towels. All in all a good stay however exterior very tired and in need of painting.

If low cost is your primary driver then this could

The accommodation is at a separate block at the rear of the pub. Whilst you can eat your evening meal in the pub there is no option for breakfast (though there maybe an in-room continental option). Room was in poor condition with windows fixings broken and light over shower not working. Fixtures and fittings were very worn and cleanliness was poor. Food in the pub was reasonable.

Was ok..

Great location with really good food, it’s a lovely pub with helpful staff. But I’ll be honest, the rooms walls were peeling away from the wall, bed wasn’t great which gave me a bad back. Also, the light outside the only window was on all night which kept me up most the night couldn’t tell if it was night or day But over priced for what it is and for the time of year. But I get it as times are hard at the moment with rates going up.

Really comfy double bed. Nice large room and wet room style bathroom. Very nice. Couldnt get kettle under the tap, so had to fill it using the mug. Shortage of 13A sockets. One under coffee table for kettle and a double hidden behind the dressing table but only one functional and that was used by the mini fridge. So decisions had to be made regarding which to lose in order to charge phone. So faulty socket and soap dispenser in shower area wanted to fall off the wall when bottle pumped and sadly no one around in the morning to report it to. (Auto check-out, no reception)

OK but could have been better.

We had a two night stay. Welcome and check in was great. Also effort on first night to accommodate us for an evening meal at the pub was excellent, the food was also really good and a reasonable price. While the room was fine for our trip (size etc) there were a few things that let it down, (1) bathroom floor was wet on arrival - we thought that was fine as probably just been cleaned, however, we had to use towel to dry floor and the towel was extremely dirty afterwards suggesting water was dirty when cleaning it in the first place.(2) shower tray was dirty - someone’s hair still present around plug hole (3) when using shower, the water did not drain quickly and overflowed from the shower tray onto the bathroom floor (4) bed linen was worn (bobbly) on the double bed, duvet cover was inside out and one of the other beds the linen had pen marks.(5) although tea / coffee making was available this was not replenished through the stay so we ran out of tea and sugar. That aside there were some nice touches in the room, bottled water and milk in the mini fridge was nice touch. Unfortunately the little negatives just took it down to an average stay rather than a very good stay.
