All the staff were friendly and helpful. The room was clean and had all the amenities we needed. The location is excellent as near train station and fairly central to the town

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Clean and tidy room with local amenities close by. Room is a bit tired and could do with a face lift
The reason we chose the Royal Ashton was that they allow pets (for a fee) The room are clean and have good beds.
But this hotel has been very ambitious in cramming as many rooms as possible in an old building!
I use this hotel all the time for my work visits in Taunton, and honestly, its fantastic. The rooms Ive always stayed in are large, clean, comfortable and its in a great location. Both Meg and Emma are amazing, you really couldnt feel more welcomed. Great hotel with great service.
Staff were awesome, easy walk from train station, lots of choice for food nearby. Bus stop out front.
If you got heavy luggage request room downstairs as there no lift.
the lady that was at the front desk when we checked in and majority of stay was so lovely and welcoming, it really makes a difference being greeted with kindness like that. the room was nice and cozy, plenty of tea for us to get through! whole experience was perfect

Disliked: Amenities
For £94.50 a night this is a very basic hotel.
Room and bed were large and clean, but very sparsely and cheaply furnished. There was a TV and 'fridge.
Bathroom was very small, though clean.
Amenities? I didn't notice any - no breakfast, no lounge or bar.
The other clientele did not inspire one to expect a peaceful or indeed safe night's sleep; though in fairness I enjoyed quiet and restful nights.
The hotel is well placed for Taunton station.
The rooms are always spotless and the staff are always helpful and friendly. To be fair, the rooms could do with an uplift but you can't fault them as they are. The hotel is in a great location.
Really friendly staff but my room was shabby with marked, stained and ripped wallpaper. It was located at the front of the property with a lot of late night noise and light from the main road. I see many other 10/10 reviews but can not say they reflected the room I was given. The room was clean, however.
