    Pros +

    • It’s beautiful and in the heart of the town. There were lovely views of the priory church. Breakfast was excellent, staff friendly and our room was clean.
    • Breakfast and room were fine, location is excellent, accessibility with car to front clashed with a coach on both occasions but not a great problem.
    • What’s not to like…the beautiful building,the location and all of the staff are so polite,from the front desk in checking in to all the staff serving the beautiful food in the restaurant ,please don’t hesitate to book and stay at the Abbey

    Cons -

    • 10 emails and 2 text messages before arrival is over the top! It says pay on arrival but they really wanted a pre payment but didn't stay so.
    • Some rooms looked tired and the bedroom needed better cleaning. A lot of dust on surfaces. Bathroom very dated.
    • I didn't like having to converse with a 3rd party with any of my requests (accessable room, table bookings etc) prior to acheiving my aim. It would have been easier and better for customers to liaise directly with the hotel.

    Great location, spacious, good storage space in bedroom, friendly and helpful staff, free parking.

    Some rooms looked tired and the bedroom needed better cleaning. A lot of dust on surfaces. Bathroom very dated.

    8DeborahPosted on: 2-11-2026

    I asked for an accessable room for my parents which they had and loved. The room was very spacious and clean. I also asked for 3 other rooms to be close together for other members of my family which also happened.

    I didn't like having to converse with a 3rd party with any of my requests (accessable room, table bookings etc) prior to acheiving my aim. It would have been easier and better for customers to liaise directly with the hotel.

    8DerekPosted on: 2-11-2026

    Location was excellent, ideally placed for the town centre, Malvern Hills and theatre. Staff were helpful and friendly.

    Buffet breakfast was only luke warm or cold for the first two mornings which was disappointing.

    8BagleyPosted on: 2-9-2026

    The room and bathroom was lovely and the bed was very comfortable. Location was great and reception ladies were lovely.

    Didn't like the bar man blowing his nose and wiping the sweat off his head with a paper towel and then serving people their drinks without washing his hands.

    8GordonPosted on: 2-9-2026

    Excellent choice for breakfast.Hotel location great for local walks and the town

    Liked everything

    10SoperPosted on: 1-29-2026

    Breakfast was excellent and the room was very comfortable . The staff were very helpful and friendly.

    5LancelotPosted on: 1-27-2026

    The breakfast was excellent and the service was quick.

    Considering we had a king size bed, it made the room cramped.Area around the sink was especially cramped.

    9GraemePosted on: 1-26-2026

    Charming and a great location. Free parking was good. The staff were lovely.

    It’s a little bit dated in places - the lounge and bar area.

    8RebeccaPosted on: 1-26-2026

    Lovely central location with great walks on the doorstep. Large bedroom and bathroom.Good selection of food at breakfast.Friendly staff.

    The flush on the toilet in the room was not great.There was no replenishment of water or toilet roll after housekeeping had been in the room, and used glasses were not cleaned.

    8JuliaPosted on: 1-24-2026

    Room was comfy, warm and clean

    The bathroom had a terrible smell of the drains, water in basin was slow to drain away

    8DavidPosted on: 1-24-2026

    Location

    Temperature control of the shower was difficult.Breakfast was so so.

    9MarkPosted on: 1-22-2026

    Very friendly staff and closeness to the theatre

    Clean the rust off the shower curtain and mould on some of the tilesTes should be from a teapot not a teabag squashed in a cup

    8GaryPosted on: 1-19-2026

    We liked the authenticity of the place. It was also great to be offered an upgrade for £10… the first time in years I’ve been able to get a deal like this (upgraded to the club family room)

    It’s a little dated. The telephone reminded me of the 80’s! The breakfast Experience - staff were great, the sausages looked like Richmond
