The George Hotel - Amesbury, Stonehenge in Wiltshire

Lovely little hotel in Amesbury, just 10 minutes from Stonehenge. The quaint and very old building had charm, even if it made getting to the room very difficult (3 flights of stairs and various hallways under ever lower ceilings until we arrived in our attic room). The room itself was very comfortable and clean, the bathroom was newly renovated. Brief confusion with the extra bed for the toddler as it was provided without sheets, pillows and blankets. However, upon request, something from the adult collection was lovingly designed. Dinner in the pub was excellent, although service was a bit slow. Breakfast in the same premises the next day was equally delicious and typically British. Overall, a house with charm and perfect for excursions simply because of its proximity. Child-friendliness is very important! Only an older waitress fell through the cracks because of her grumpy demeanor.

We are here Friday as we couldn’t be bothered to cook! This place could be so so lovely but sadly the food does not match up to the setting. Our starters were good, especially the scotch egg but the mains just seemed like they were brought in, pre-made microwave meals. I had beef ragu with rosemary dumplings but what actually came was salty beef mince with peas and hard plain dumplings. My husband had confit duck which was ok but clearly not fresh. We didn’t stay for desert. It was also such a shame to see it so empty on Friday evening.. honestly food is everything and if they brought the food up to standard, we would visit all the time as we are local and we really need some decent places to eat in Amesbury. I doubt there is much return custom which I would imagine would make such a difference in a place like this. We’ve eaten here a few times and the food has never been amazing but has definitely been of a better quality than we got on Friday night!

We went for a meal here tonight and I have to say the food was delicious and the service was fantastic. Thankyou to Bryony for looking after us so well, we will be back 🙂

Had a great time, charming hotel and wonderful service.

Waited 1hr and 10 minutes for our food order to come. Cabbage was not cooked properly. Beef wA stringy. Wrong items cooked. Fish batter was cooked but fish inside was raw and smelled of rotten. They say one child eat free on Sundays for every paying adults but we where still charged.

Booked a two night stay for eight to celebrate a significant birthday. The hotel was lovely and the staff made our stay so easy and enjoyable. A special thank you to the restaurant staff who took everything in their stride. Would definitely recommend a stay here.

Room was OK, a small single fine for one night. Dinner was pretty good, but 4 of us ordered steak either medium or medium rare, they all came rare. I was advised against the cheese board by the waiting staff so opted for crumble which was good. Staff seemed keen to close up so we were done before 10! Bacon sandwich for breakfast was poor

Beautiful hotel with lots of special touches. Great location. Highly recommend

The afternoon tea was very disappointing poor sandwiches shop brought scones and cakes. Definitely not enough served

Great experience over dinner with a group of colleagues. Staff were very accepting of our (my) loud behaviour on occasion and would highly recommend a stay/food/drink at The George - Grace put up with far too much from us and is highly commended for her patience!

This was our second time stopping at The George to break our journeys from Devon. The perfect coaching inn! Both times, the food, service, and atmosphere were fantastic and thoroughly delightful stops. The only negative is that it is too nice and leaving is such a hardship. One day, we will look to stay. Thank you.

Good service, great food. Nice rooms (with complementary rubber duck), but a lot of noise on the street during the night

Didn't stay here, only ate at the restaurant. Very good food, well presented with efficient service.

Superb. Rooms, staff, breakfast choices, Large car park. Central location. Would recommend. We will stay here again next time we are in Amesbury. Thank you.

We stopped in here for lunch, which was nice. It has been significantly renovated since I was last in here years ago, and it is stunning inside, fantastic decor and very stylish furniture. The food was good to, I didn't realise there was this little gem in Amesbury, I will be back to sample some more.

Very nice hotel with a warm feeling. Room was well appointed, a bit drafty due to the very old window but no problem. Staff very welcoming. There is a decent sized car park to the rear of the building which is good. Breakfast was very good. Update June 2024. Once again excellent, thank you 😊

Used as a stop off on way to Devon. Lovely hotel recently refurbed. Nothing much to do in Amesbury except visit stonehenge!

Rooms are very clean, a bit small and tilted and ventilation in the bathroom isn’t great, but given this is a hundreds-year-old hotel it’s quite a unique experience.

Had a meal in the bar. Fantastic food and great service.

Table booked for 7pm finish 3hrs later, service non-existant. Nothing on the menu was available.

Family gathering, very enjoyable Sunday lunch

We had a really good night here. The parking available is great, they were very accommodating to our special requests. We requested a second duvet and they brought another big one. That made for quite a lot of duvet in the bed but it was extremely cozy. The bathroom threw me for a bit of a loop. We had a room where you had to go down stairs inside bathroom. It was generally clean and inviting tho. They had glutenfree options for breakfast, something we anticipated would be a bit tricky. Overall I really recommend it.

Didn't stay. Had wonderful time. Humorous staff. Excellent breakfast. We had just been to Stonehenge. Thoroughly recommended
