Had a wonderful couple of nights stay in the King John suite. Check in was at the bar - and it seems the place gets very busy! But the staff are friendly and helpful. The room itself was neat and clean and well presented, with a couple of bottles of water, a couple of packs of biscuits, and drink making facilities - which was helpful when we'd just got in. The bathrooms a good size - lights and fan are automatic, and there's a nice big bath. The lights have dimmer switches, which is ideal for mornings or evenings when you need to see but don't want the world too bright. The curtains seem to be blackout ones, which is handy given the street outside, with an inner sheer layer so you can let light in and still have privacy. The room looks out over the front of the pub - which was nice with the christmas lights having been turned on. There was some noise from the street below (mainly people who'd got in a bit too high spirits), but it's not on the main road so it's not bad. Outside of normal opening hours, there's another door so you can still come and go. And in the evening, after we retired to our room, we heard the piano being played and some singing after closing time - which was lovely! The place has a wonderful atmosphere! And loved staying somewhere with such heritage! Breakfast was lovely! I added a cooked breakfast in while I was there for the Monday morning, and as a Vegetarian I was delighted! Veggie sausage, baked beans, toast, tomatos and the mushrooms... oh, the mushrooms were delishous! Great way to start the day! And it was served in the snug - photos attached - which was decorated for Christmas, and a really nice setting to eat in. There's also outdoor seating under a covered area, which looks lovely but this was hardly the time of year to enjoy. What's keeping it from 5 stars? Mostly little things: - The joints on the bed seemed a little loose, so would move a little when leant against. - The fixtures in the bathroom (sink tap, toilet roll holder) were a bit loose and would shift when used. (Also, be aware the floor of that bathroom is a bit slippery even when not wet!) - One of the three lights in the light over the bed would basically go off entirely when the lights were on lowest setting - A guide to the times they're serving food (and menu) would be handy in the rooms. We went down a little after 7.30 on the Sunday evening, and the kitchens were closed (which is a shame: eating on site would have been convenient, and I was looking forward to trying their pies!). They'd also stopped serving drinks on the Saturday evening when we got in... but I'm uncertain on the time so might have just missed it around 11pm. .....- In their defence, though, it seems much of Worcester stops serving food before 8pm, as we tried another pub, and one of the restaurants on that street (there are a lot of eating places along that street), and both were closed (we ended up going to the Nandos, which was close by too). Just something to be aware of whe
