Staff were very welcoming and reception and public areas were spotlessly clean. Bedroom was clean but carpet and sofa had stains noting too serious but quite noticeable.

Convenient location close to town, with very friendly staff and a good restaurant - useful as there's not much else in town. Safe parking (extra), decent breakfast and nice bar. The waitresses made the meal experience all the better.

The environs were better than the centre although the churches and Museum are worth a visit. Traffic heavy in places and most streets not pedestrianised. I would recommend 'Augustus' for a special meal (Michelin starred). Most other restaurants very unspectacular. Brasserie meal in the 'Castle Hotel' disappointing.
My favourite places are the Quantocks, The West Somerset Railway and Hestercombe Gardens.

Taxi overcharged me on the motorway route after being told it was £25 I got charged £34. He would only take one route that I thought was cheaper. I tried calling him the next day due to no public bus services available. No response. Claimed he arrived fromRomania in 2003. An English person from Taunton Taxis helped me out the next day with an awesomely cheaper rate, and showed me how to get to the basic bus route. Brilliant service from Taunton Taxis. Would highly recommend them but you have to phone as they are not allowed to sit in aTaxi rank apparently, where the expensive guy was....??
Some people here do not know where things are. Bus services do not run on Sundays if you are a traveller, tourist, worker etc.
Prior experience here I was left to sleep in the street, no offer to provide a place to sleep, had a food poisoned experience by local street van vendor, not seen here on revisit where public toilets were intentionally closed and Male urinals open. I am a woman!
Bag of personal belongings stolen from the local library, taken into custody via police where items were returned after it being opened. This was bag with clothes, research books and personal property linking to identity and legal documents were accessed. That was with CCTV.

We came for the County Classics Car Museum which has recently opened. Lots of shiny cars and motorbikes, friendly staff. We also went for a couple of walks close by - one at Ilminster and one at Castle Naroche. We stayed at the Corner Hotel. The meal in their restaurnat (pre-book) was excellent.

Taunton is a nice unusual town with lots of different shops.
Taunton is a nice unusual town with lots of different shops. It is near to the River Tonne and has a museum( although I didn't get a chance to visit on this occasion) It is very close to the cricket ground and has 2 beautiful churches. Nearby there is a nice park called Vivary Park. There are two Park and Rides called Silk Mills and Gateway and the bus runs between the two. It only costs £2 return and you park in the Park and Ride car park for free. The cattle market is no longer held in the town, though.

We went for a live band rock n roll event in the Lawns club it was brilliant they have live music events often.
Lovely walk in the park it has a lovely children's play area with Cafe and outdoor climbing ropes / crazy golf lots to do .
Very friendly hosts, good breakfast. Quite a convenient location for a 20 / 30 minute walk into Taunton town centre. As per other reviews Yallands is surrounded by a housing estate but that really doesn't detract from the location when you are there, as it is a bit of a 'rural oasis in an urban area' There is also a comfortable guest lounge which was really useful for us. I'd certainly stay there again. - Thank you to the hosts.
The hotel looks very beautiful from outside the reception area as well. The reception staff were very friendly and apologetic when I spoke to them regarding issues during our stay. Taunton Town centre is amazing for shopping and we enjoyed visiting surrounding areas, however, if we visit Taunton again we will be looking for alternative accommodation.
The overall appearance of the Hotel (both inside and out) was very good. My Room was bigger than most for a similar price. The Bed was comfortable and the Shower and Cubicle were also good, except for the shower head slipping down the vertical pole, meaning I had to duck down to wash my hair ! There is Free Car Parking at the front of the Hotel.
Really lovely property with beautifully decorated rooms and a stunning luxury bathroom. Ideal placement for Taunton town centre and for the hospital (staying for work). Paul and Sharon were wonderful hosts and so so accommodating, showing true care looking after me between gruelling night shifts. Thank you so much both, see you again soon.
After traveling for over 24 hours, the welcome we got was amazing. Such lovely people and a lovely home, we had our own space but felt like we were being welcomed it a family home.
Location was great for us, we were visiting family in Taunton and could walk off the main road from No.2 to their place.
Fantastic accommodation. Very spacious, wonderfully decorated, with all facilities and equipment needed. Great location near to the station and town centre, with plenty nearby. Great communication and instructions from staff throughout the process. Will definitely be back when next in the area.
The room was really nice, clean and well furnished. The owners and staff were very nice, extremely helpful and made us feel at home. Great value as well compared to what else you would get in Taunton for not much less.
The room was spacious, comfortable and spotlessly clean.
The breakfast was excellent with good choices.

Close to train station, short walk to town centre. Hotel not noisy, nice sized room with onsuite. Ground floor room at the back of hotel away from street traffic and noise
We like where the hotel is because you can get in to Taunton and also we have two small dogs and there is quite a big park nearby to walk them friendly Bath and fair menu
For me this hotel was good value, it was quiet from my room, clean as i can remember and staff friendly, location was good for me to. Bonus was the kitchen room.
