Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.
Learn more about our review moderation.

Stopped off on our way back from Bristol and didn’t fancy cooking. A simple menu without too much choice which was a nice surprise. We both had a main and dessert and a drink for under £60. Good honest food and good service. Great

A very average Saturday lunch. Pub was cold - heating should have been on. Service was ok but staff didn’t seem particularly motivated. Toilets smelt terrible. Would not recommend

We stayed overnight and enjoyed a very good Dinner and Breakfast. Our room was in the separate block next to the Inn. The room was modern and the decor and fittings all in very good condition and we had a good night's sleep. The staff...were all very polite and helpful. The Inn is close to the Park and Ride where there is lots of parking and the bus stops on Milsom Street in the centre of Bath. Would definitely use again.More

We stopped for a quick lunch on our way to Bath. The fish finger sandwich was served with chips and tasted great. The goats cheese on a bed of roasted veg was absolutely delicious. The service could not be faulted.

Random pick for a quick lunch. Was it special? Frankly, no. Was it absolutely fine, good value, large portions, friendly service? Yes. So that's fine. Can't say it was a gourmet experience, or provide useful comments on anything complex on the menu, but the bread...for the sandwiches was fresh, and the fries were crisp. That'll do for a quick lunch that was about being sociable without spending vast sums or taking too long. Decent car park too. We would return.More

Beautiful building. Great service. Poor value for money. Had large fish and chips. Swapped chips for mash. Didn't eat the batter on the fish. Even though it was a large portion it was basically too small thin strips of fish. £17.00 was a lot to...give for what I had. Unlikely to go back.More

This place is nice, clean and comfy. Beautiful garden and setting. Staff really nice. Breakfast was great and menu was ok. The only problem we had was being woken up with doors slamming each morning at 5.30 ish. Not sure why people can’t use handles...to shut doors. Take ear plugs with you!More

Stayed here for 7 nights. Rooms are modern, clean and comfortable. Very secure in a courtyard with resident only access. All staff were excellent and nothing was too much trouble. Food was delicious. The inn is well situated and only a few minutes walk from...Lansdown Road Park and Ride for easy access to Bath.More

Fantastic location Sadly rooms 9 and 10 you have to walk past the men’s toilets and smell public toilet/ piss smell to get to your room… Then as these rooms are above the toilets you can hear the public using the hand dryers throughout the...night when in the room! Rooms 1-8 looked like to be outside the pub is a seperate area and looked much more desirable location Food was great, drinks was great, staff weere great! Just the location of the room really put a damper on the place!More

Pleasant place to stay for one night afer attending Bath Racecourse. Bar staff were a little aloof and could be friendlier but service was good. Food menu is a little lacking invention but the burger was OK. Breakfast in the morning had a very friendly...server and the full English was substantial and satisfying. Overall, a good place to stay outside the city.More

A great place for so many reasons. Location - half mile walk to Bath races - along a path beside the racecourse. Staff - all brilliant, friendly, helpful Room - clean, comfortable, quiet Food - fantastic, lunch and breakfast were superb We had a two...night stay and was an ideal base for the race meeting we attended and a day in Bath. A lovely place to relax, easy to get to - I would recommend anyone to consider the Charlcombe Inn should they visit the areaMore

Just had a Sunday lunch for 4 adults and a baby at the pub. Was really excellent! Kids food was good and quickly served ahead of other meals as we requested. Followed by 3 roasts that looked great and the rest of my group said...were really good all around. I unusually had the Caribbean vegan curry and it was utterly delicious and I'll be going back especially for it!More
