Review by hotel critic
During my recent stay at the Old Vine, I was pleasantly surprised by the hotel's charming ambiance and culinary offerings. Nestled conveniently across from the Cathedral, the historic setting immediately felt welcoming. The highlight of my mornings was the free cooked-to-order breakfast, enjoyed in the comfort of my spacious room. This personalized touch set the tone for leisurely days ahead. I particularly relished their delicious sandwiches at lunchtime, which paired perfectly with a variety of ales from the oak-beamed bar, enhancing the quintessential pub experience. In the evenings, the restaurant buzzed with energy, creating an inviting atmosphere. The staff were approachable and clearly committed to ensuring guests had an enjoyable experience. As a marine biologist, I value places that showcase their heritage, and the Old Vine certainly does that through both its décor and culinary innovation. I would certainly recommend this delightful hotel to fellow food enthusiasts seeking a taste of local culture.
