Beautiful historic building in a convenient location overlooking the magnificent cathedral. The rooms were extremely comfortable and beautifully presented with all the amenities you need. Rugantino's restaurant serves amazing, well presented food served by a professional but friendly team who made you feel like you were their number one priority. The breakfast was outstanding cooked to perfection made with fresh ingredients and enough to set you up for the day.
I can't think of anything.The whole experience at the Ancient Gatehouse and Rugantino's restaurant has been exceptional. Andy, Nicky, and Antonio are an amazing team who work very well together to make your experience one you'll never forget.

The Ancient Gatehouse is a quirky, superb, piece of history. Much of this ancient building is not accessible to anyone with mobility issues but they warn people well in advance of this. The room we stayed in was up a narrow, twisting stair, right at the top of the building. The room itself was large and comfortable. The staff were very welcoming and friendly. Loads of useful information was sent prior to our stay - where to park, etc.
I appreciate this is an old, probably listed, building and must be protected but perhaps secondary double glazing? The room faced onto the road and the noise of passing traffic was quite loud.

We stayed in room 2, which has a four-poster bed. There is a large window onto Sadler St with a window seat underneath. A great place to watch the world go by or to sit and read. The on-suite bathroom was clean and the shower powerful and effective. although the shower could do with a place to put toiletries. The bed was comfortable and the bed linen was good quality. Bottled water, tea and coffee making facilities were replenished everyday. The Old Gatehouse is right on the cathedral square with access through the breakfast area of the dinning room. There is seating outside on a grass area overlooking the square but the seating and tables are removed into storage on evenings when the restaurant is not open (Tuesday and Wednesday). We arrived on a Monday so booked for the restaurant Rugantino that night. We loved it, the ambience, the service and the food, just brilliant! We tried other top rated trip advisor restaurants on the Tuesday and Wednesday and they don't even come close.
Getting to the rooms is a little tricky if you are carrying heavy or bulky luggage with very narrow and step stairways, but the building is old so there is probably very little that can be done. We had an issue with the hot water on the last night where no hot water (not even cold) was coming from the tap or shower. As it was a Wednesday evening there was no one on reception so we called the out of hours number. It was answered quickly and with the promise of someone attending shortly. We were on our way out so left it at that. On our return after eating the water was at least running but still not coming out hot. At check out we mentioned to the receptionist the problem and she was extremely apologetic and she did offer us a chance to hot shower in another room.

Nothing was too much trouble for the staff. A very warm, cheery welcome from Nicky, as previously. Everything explained clearly. Extremely accommodating. The room was exceptional - small, cosy, but with everything I needed. Wonderful view across the cathedral green. High standards of cleanliness. Very comfortable bed with high quality bedding. Bathroom spacious, basic but all I needed, again, with a lovely view to the cathedral. I would highly recommend this hotel. Thank you to all the staff, especially Nicky, for making my short stay so memorable.

The room was exactly as described. My room was at the back of the property which meant that it was away from any street noise and extremely quiet. The room was very clean and tidy with all the expected facilities. The bed was really comfortable and the bed linen was crisp which gave a good impression of the attention to detail by the proprietor. The staff that I came into contact with were polite and friendly and eager to help with any queries.
The room whilst comfortable and clean could do with being freshened up. The plug socket for the t.v. and the kettle were both on the same wall socket using an old fashioned double adapter which should really be replaced with a new wall mounted double switchable socket. The t.v. was sitting on a shelf inside the old fireplace and should probably have been fixed to a wall or set up on a more appropriate cupboard. The remote control was difficult to use and had seen better days. There was a bath but no wall mounted shower which I would prefer however there was a hand held shower head.

We had a good experience from the outset, being warmly welcomed and able to check in to our room ahead of time. The hotel sent useful information on the various public parking options in Wells and so their not having guest parking of their own was not a problem. We had the superior double with lovely views overlooking the green and the Cathedral. The food in the Rugantino restaurant was excellent. The building is old and full of character - expect to hear other guests on the creaky stairs.
The room is soon going to be refurnished and the hotel thanked us for our suggestions for improvement, for example more shelf space for toiletries in the bathroom, a hook for coats on the back of the door, and a large cushion for your back when sitting up in bed. A proper shower would have been plus in the en-suite, and they say they are also considering this as part of their upgrade. These were minor points and wouldn't stop us considering a return trip.

The location was perfect, overlooking the cathedral green and two minutes from the market and shopping. The hotel retains the feel of its age but with modern and pristinely clean facilities (including superb water pressure - rare in any hotel, but especially in such an ancient building). The food in the restaurant is excellent and the service friendly and efficient - but, unusually for such a busy city centre location, we were able to sit over our meal without being pressured to finish and vacate, so we were able fully to enjoy the warm evening and the view of the cathedral across the green. Although the hotel has no parking, very helpfully, they emailed well in advance with suggested parking options with postcodes and estimated costs.

The hotel is altogether charming and the staff is jovial and attentive. We had a marvelous view of beautiful Wells Cathedral. The food is outstanding—traditional English breakfast served to order and authentic gourmet Italian food in the evening. The hotel is very old and a bit quirky, which is part of its charm. We would definitely stay there again.
This is not a complaint but a heads up—anyone with accessibility challenges should discuss them with the desk staff before booking. The stairs to some of the most charming rooms are quite steep!

A lovely ancient (but tastefully modernised) building - a fabulous restaurant in a perfect setting with a small hotel above. I had a lovely spacious single room and shower room in the roof with the most fabulous view across the green to the Cathedral. Sunrise was spectacular! For a single room it was surprisingly spacious and airy with a really comfortable bed with all facilities, including some quirky electrical instructions!
Because I’m an older person, with arthritis, I knew the stairs up to my room may well be a challenge (the description was very clear about this)and they were a bit, as they were very steep (but thankfully a short flight). However the staff were only too happy to drop everything and take my case up on arrival and down on leaving! The rest of the time I used the handrails and was fine. But I chose to take the challenge and anyone with any doubt may wish to take heed of the warnings. The hotel restaurant and the bar are closed on a Tuesday and Wednesday, but the kitchen is open for breakfast.

Perfect situation for centre of town, Wells Cathedral, Bishop's Palace Gardens. Beautiful bathroom and pristine clean. Although next to main road, it was not noisy. We knew there were steep steps but the lovely, helpful receptionist in our phone conversation before the stay, explained that there was only one flight to our room and the steep steps were to the next floor. She gave us excellent instructions on where to park, the keysafe and how to find our room, but also wrote details on the envelope the keys were in. She went above and beyond what she had to do. The complementary hot drinks, water and biscuits were very welcome after a long and late journey.
It's a historic building so you can't expect it to be decorated in a modern fashion. The ensuite bathroom was really modern and beautiful but the decor in the bedroom itself was to be as expected in such an old building - just not my style. The 4 poster bed was comfortable. It was my back on the second night that after a long day of walking made me toss and turn and again last night on my return home! My husband had no problem at all. I've lived in a bungalow almost all my life so I'm always nervous of stairs. The turn in the stairs right at the bottom was like in a castle tower - wide at one end and narrowing to the other. Again, my husband had no problem with them - I'm just nervous on stairs.
