They advertise breakfast included when I booked my stay ( literally the reason why I booked with them and chose it over other modern stays in the area) Turns out they lied and basically said we had to pay like an absurd amount per person for a brunch they offered a 15$ voucher but that still made the breakfast like 30$ per guest. Highly wouldn’t recommend as they are dishonest and falsely advertised. I booked at The June Motel the next day in the area and their accommodations are super modern and cute and they offer free wine when you arrive, continental breakfast the next day and they have a s’mores fire pit from 7-10pm. Price was slightly more expensive but the accommodation and service was WAY better.

This was my second time staying at The Waring House for a mini getaway and I really enjoyed my stay. The bed was super comfortable and the room was spacious, The Barley Room Pub (onsite) has a great atmosphere with live bands and a great selection of brews on tap, the staff is extremely friendly (a shout out to Heather the day manager) and the breakfast was excellent. The weather wasn’t great during my visit but I love that the Millennium Trail is right behind the hotel property for easy access to walking/cycling paths. I’ll definitely be visiting again!

We’ve stayed twice. The rooms need some much needed TLC. The first time we didn’t have a shower (tub with a shower hose, dangerous) and this latest time there was so much furniture in the room we couldn’t move around. The sheets didn’t fit the double beds. The mattress was exposed in one of the beds.….yuk!! Front desk staff weren’t friendly. Love the free breakfast and the pub. Staff are extremely attentive and friendly; food is delicious. We will go back but I will be asking for a better room.

The room (while an historic building - no problem with that), needed a thorough spring cleaning. Some cobwebs on ceiling, some dirt around tub entrance & walls could be washed.

It was a good stay, very clearly the off season so there were little things that could have been improved. But all the staff were very nice (I'm talking about Heather in particular) and the food was good. It's in an excellent location to the town, only 6 minutes away.
