The George Hotel

Fantastic, historic, small hotel. Lively, excellent staff. One thing to remember - currently, no food, but many very local (walking) options for breakfast and evening meals. Downstairs bar is a delight. Full of friendly locals. And Newent is a great place for exploring and (especially) charity shopping! Even EV charging points directly outside.

It was all good had good stay

Stayed at the George Hotel for 1 night. Had a twin room which was on the first floor. Room was clean and tidy with an en suite bathroom. Located in the market town of Newent within walking distance to pubs, restaurants and shops. Parking available to rear of hotel.

Step back in time in The George! A throwback to a bygone age, when people were shorter and bathrooms were carpeted. It's a lovely, quirky old building; as long as you embrace the dated decor and topsy-turvy layout you'll have a perfectly fine stay. The staff are friendly and welcoming, check-in was easy, and the room was warm and comfortable. The car park is accessed from the front via a very narrow horse and carriage entrance. If your car is wide you will struggle to get through it. There is parking along the road overnight but between 08:30 and 4pm it states 1 hour max stay. During that time you can pay to park in Newent Lake carpark, a 5 minute walk away. Keep your expectations in line with the price and you will have a jolly time!

The staff at the hotel were fantastic and I found it an overall lovely experience. I was a tad concerned about the practicalities of not having an en suite, but the private bathroom was absolutely fine. I did find the bed wasn’t the comfiest, but for the price I was overall very pleased. One downside was how noise traveled - footsteps were felt from upstairs and rattled the door, making it hard to sleep (especially with a young family upstairs struggling to put their child to sleep - not blaming them at all, was just unfortunate given the way sound traveled. Would definitely stay again.
