5 stars

Our stay at Somerville House was excellent. Sheila and Steve were very welcoming and provided everything to make our stay comfortable. The breakfasts were absolutely first class, the beds were extremely comfortable and the room had plenty of storage space. The beautiful garden was quiet and colourful with plenty of garden tables and chairs to use and a large canopy for shade which Steve put up for us. We had a choice of leaflets providing information about local places to visit and Sheila's suggestions helped us enjoy some lovely days out during our stay. We will definitely return! Thank you Sheila and Steve. Pauline & Margaret Thank you Sheila and Steve!

Perfect & Comfortable Hotel Break

My wife and I stayed at Somerville House when we visited for a friends wedding. A warm welcome and a room that had every amenity that you could need, from a mini fridge to a kettle and an iron, and more..I liked the honesty bar facility as well. A comfortable bed and room. the hotel is a short 15 min walk into the City centre. The breakfast was excellent with a choice of fruit and cereals and a choice of hot breakfasts, coupled with a cafetiere of good coffee. The service was friendly. We found it to be perfect for our needs and would recommend.

Nice hotel, great food and location

The hotel is lovely and in a great location. Easy walk to town. Breakfast was great and staff friendly. The only negative was the shower. There was no hand unit so showering was a little uncomfortable.

Absolutely loved our stay at Somerville hotel, everything was just perfect when we arrived, the bed was incredible it was so so so comfy, and the breakfast was delicious!!! The hosts were really lovely and welcoming and nothing seemed too much trouble. We had a fab locally sourced mini bar in our room and down in the dining room that was very reasonably priced and fresh milk for the room for tea and coffee What a great touch way better the uht pots you usually get elsewhere If you want to stay in or around Hereford then a stay here is a must! We will definitely be back.
