Enjoyed a very pleasant stay at the Bell and can't fault anything. Our room was very clean and comfortable, and the staff were all very friendly and efficient. Breakfast was good and the menu in the bar was extensive and very reasonably priced. The food was delicious and we ate there all 4 nights of our stay.
There was no grab rail to get out of the bath/shower so could be dangerous for the less nimble. Bedside lights looked good but it was impossible to read by the light. Owner informed and promised to sort it.
Great pub with B&B rooms. Check in was easy and the rooms were lovely.
We ate in the pub in the evening and was very impressed. My brother in law said the ribs were 'the best he'd ever had'
Breakfast the following morning was very tasty too with plenty of choice.
One let down was the fact that in the evening when we wanted a shower and my sister and her husband in the next room wanted a bath there was no hot water. As it was 9 o'clock at night we decided not to report it.
I did report it to the man who I believe was the manager at breakfast, and feel that my comments were dismissed, we were just told, 'there is hot water 24 hours a day' as if we were making it up. There was not even an apology which I feel was very poor customer service. Now wish we had reported it at the time!
Friendly staff excellent accommodation and good pub food at affordable prices. A great breakfast. If you are looking for good value food and accommodation near Worcester this is it.
Very nice stay with lovely modern rooms and very comfortable beds,The food was outstanding with excellent customer service.
The locals made you feel welcome and all in all we had a excellent time
We stayed for one night and found that The Bell is in the top league of pub accommodation. The service was excellent, the room spotless, the bed very comfortable and the bathroom modern with an excellent shower. To cap it all the breakfast was superb, either English or Continental.
We had our dog with us and there was a very plush bed provided for him in the room and a sausage for breakfast!
We would highly recommend this accommodation which at under £100 was excellent value for money. We will be returning!
We thought the staff were very friendly and helpful. It was a busy evening as they music on so a very happy sociable place.
The breakfast was perfectly cooked and very tasty.
There are some lovely walks around the village, off the road around fields.
All in all a lovely place to stay.
We had a very comfortable overnight stay at the Bell Inn. The village was quiet but only 10 mins drive from Worcester. We also enjoyed a great breakfast in the morning. Would stay again of we're in the area
Accommodation was good and clean. Evening meal and breakfast were both excellent and reasonably priced. Staff were very helpful and efficient.
A thoroughly enjoyable stay especially after a very long car journey
Stayed bank hol weekend, bar and garden were very busy.
Stayed to visit family in Worcester for the first time, very convenient location.
Room was comfy and well stocked however the kitchen extraction was just by the window that stopped us opening the window on a very hot night which did affect the quality of sleep.
Some minor housekeeping issues mean I can’t give a 5* rating but altogether a great value venue, breakfast was a delight 👍
Will book again
Thoroughly enjoyed our 2-night stay. Room was more than adequate for us, liked the 'last orders' close at 10pm during the week. Evening and breakfast meals were superb, maybe could provide one, or two, extra real ale choices, (but that's just me), and all staff seemed cheerful and happy in their work, especially Becky.
Excellent service, all the staff were very polite. Room spacious and clean, mini fridge with fresh milk and water was much appreciated. very tasty breakfast and food in the restaurant.
Could not fault it, would stay again.
Easy overnight stop on way to Somerset.
Easy to find, though parking wasn't that easy.
Comfortable bar area and lovely service, all staff encountered were very pleasant and the food was good.
Location was convenient for Hartlebury Castle on the way and The Firs (Elgar's birthplace) on the onward trip.
Will bear it in mind for future trips.
Lovely room with added extras like fresh milk in a small fridge and bottles of water - lovely touch especially on a very hot day. Breakfast really good and is included in the room rate. Friendly staff.
