So it's an old coaching house, the car park is round the back of the hotel up a little lane just off Queen street at the top of The Ropewalk. It's a pay and display car park, but free for hotel guests. The hotel itself has a variety of rooms, the ones up at the front seem to be a... More

It was a coincidence that we stayed in room 1 where King Charles 1st spent his last night as a free man on May 5th. Thankfully no ghosts kept me awake, only some late night youths on the street outside. Nevertheless the room was full of history and atmosphere with its Elizabethan hand-painted wall and the big comfortable four-poster bed.... More

Having visited the hotel for food and drink seven months ago on our return we noticed a drop in standards. Firstly the venue wasn't particularly warm, we appreciate a large old building like that would be very expensive to heat, however, surely your customers comfort is priority. The food standard had dropped also, the salad was not fresh and the... More

Returning after 30 years it was good to see that this hotel has retained it's quirky nature and layout. The welcome was friendly and efficient and the rooms have been recently refurbished with very comfortable beds and chairs. The bathroom is a reasonable size and our room was very quiet. All in all good value. Despite the many comments in... More

We had a spacious twin room although the bathroom was a little small with a shower head that dripped all night. In the afternoon when we returned to the hotel we went to the bar for a warming drink but after waiting for 10 minutes for any sign of a bar person we gave up and went to the pub... More

Visited during cold bitter weather and was given a warm and friendly greeting. Nothing outstanding about the rooms (single and a double) but they were clean and warm with plenty of towels etc and a comfy bed. The building is old and therefore a little draughty in places but decor was sympathetic and respected the age of the building. I... More

I stayed in the Saracens Head Hotel for 3 nights during a business trip. I had a very enjoyable stay, the room that I stayed in had 2 single beds. The bathroom was ok, but could do with a bit of updating in my opinion and the shower was not the most powerful I have ever experienced. I did not... More

Spent our 43rd wedding anniversary at this delightful hotel. It is situated right in the centre of Southwell and there are plenty of closeby shops and the beautiful minster to visit. We stayed on a terrific Travel Zoo deal for one night. The whole hotel has a lovely feeling of historical comfort and our welcome by the receptionist was very... More

This place has character coming out of everywhere. The staff are well presented and professional. The facilities are good - I mean a King of the Realm hid here! The hotel is comfortable and the age of the place means that the rooms are accessed by little corridors and up a few steps down a few steps and so on.... More
