The Archangel,Restaurant & Bar with Rooms

After a very long day's work coming back from Cornwall, I randomly picked Frome for the night, and searched on my phone for somewhere interesting. Archangel was perfect. The bar and barn-like restaurant were very cool, and my dinner was excellent. Staff very friendly and attentive. Room off courtyard was cosy and comfortable and everthing worked! Had forgotten that breakfast was included, and would have been quite happy to have paid for hot chocolate and eggs royale as extra , had it not been. I am sure that negative reviews on here pre-date the current management as none of it rings true today.

After reading the reviews it was easy to fall into a negative state of mind . After reality checking myself I have realised it’s not that bad . Yes it has the negative of thin walls , but the ear plugs they offer quickly fixed this for me . The positives of this place ? Staff , staff are very friendly and will help you With any needs . As I’m leaving at 7 am they offered me breakfast in a bag . Even though I have bought my own pot porridge I agreed as it’s free . I am now sat here covered in crumbs after eating one of the best pain au chocolates I have ate . The bathroom is simple yet everything I need . Shower is a great temperature with amazing pressure . Nice shampoo / shower gel et . When I got here I was greeted with a table full of coffee / tea hot chocolate et . A cafetière was a treat rather than instant coffee was a treat as well . Bed is comfy and clean room is nice , yes it can get stuffy but rather then not having an initiative like the negative reviewers I was able to simply open a window to quickly cure that problem. Character , it’s a funky little place and it will sure stay in my memories for some years to come . Overall it’s a great place , yes not perfect . But isn’t perfect boring ?

Lovely character Hôtel in the centre of town . Unusually large bedroom with table and chairs outside for a sundowner. Best part - pet friendly- staff were lovely and engaging. Had delicious dinner - one of the best battered fish ever had and lovely breakfast. FROME is a lovely village worth a visit

Just returned from an overnight stay at this quirky establishment. Very close to The Cheese and Grain which is why we chose to stay here having booked tickets to see a show there. We stayed on a Saturday night in Room 3 and whilst there was some traffic noise and people talking in the street, we closed the window and then it wasn't an issue. By 11pm there was no noise heard from downstairs in the pub. The room was well furnished and had good quality bath sheets. Comfy bed with complimentary bathing products. The food was top notch and a good breakfast menu added to the luxurious feel. The manager and her staff were very attentive and friendly without being "in your face". Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and it will become our "go to" when visiting Frome. A big thank you to the team for making us feel so welcome.

Avoid especially room 3. Noisy room above pub. If it’s not the music, it’s the guests walking up the stairs, the shouting, the cars driving in front. Curtains have few hooks on them and smell of dust as does the room. There are much better hotels in Frome for less.

Five of us were staying locally & called in for lunch. We all enjoyed our meals very much. I had fish n chips, it was delicious! Tartare sauce nice too. Staff polite. Hoping to return to Frome for the monthly Sunday market so I would book a table here to eat.

Myself and my partner stayed for NYE, from start to finish nothing was too much trouble and we were made to feel very welcome. We stayed in room 5 which had beautiful character including a free standing bath (complimentary bubble bath included!) and was very cosy- Just what we needed after a night out partying! Slept like logs and didn’t hear a thing either given the fact the whole world was partying! Rightfully so.. The Archangel is in good reach of what Frome has to offer, a stones throw from great watering holes and the infamous Cheese and Grain! We had a lovely meal from the festive set menu and we can’t wait to come back and enjoy the usual menu offerings! Breakfast was fantastic and much needed! Thankyou to all at the Archangel for looking after us.

Popped on for a drink and something to eat while visiting Frome. First impressions on walking in were good, plenty of areas to sit and have a drink, but lacked the usual Somerset pub feel, bar staff were good, food was ok but lacked presentation. So not a pub to avoid but plenty of other pubs in town.

Our room was freezing cold on Boxing Day. When we enquired the next day, when staff were in the pub, we were moved to a much smaller room as the heating had broken. A refund was offered but not given. No one was there to check us out except a waitress who took the key and said someone would call me. Still no refund has been given, despite calls and emails. The new room was next to a room with loud speakers which were on until 1am for 2 nights, despite there being no people in the room. Terrible customer service.
