"Fantastic hotel and pub, very cosy and set in a fab location. The room we stayed in was delightful, very large with great amenities. Food was very tasty and the breakfast was plentiful and hot with a good variety of continental and hot breakfast items to choose from (full English including veggie option). Great to have onsite parking too. Will definitely be back thanks!"

Really lovely hotel with fantastic public rooms. Cosy bar with log fire and home made cakes or cocktails later on. Food was delicious and service very friendly. Rooms are being upgraded and the views are beautiful.

The staff were very helpful especially in the bar and restaurant. Our room was clean but needs more TLC especially threadbare patches in the carpet need to be rectified . The main stairs needs to be decorated especially, the banister rail, otherwise everything else was okay.

We booked on the spur of the moment for one night and definitely picked the best location in Ross on Wye. The hotel has a fantastic terrace with a great view and we were given a room with that view too when we asked. The room and bathroom were very clean and the bed comfortable with lovely crispy white sheets.
The hotel staff were all very friendly and polite, especially the waiter at breakfast who smoothly fulfilled our request to see the view again whilst having breakfast with smiles and no...

Had a lovely couple of nights in The Speech House Hotel. The staff were friendly but also professional. Room really comfortable and well equipped, and a good size. The restaurant was excellent, both for dinner and for breakfast. The hotel has a long and interesting history going back many hundreds of years. It's such a lovely location too, with lots of places within easy driving distance, but more importantly there's the beautiful Forest of Dean to enjoy. We would most definitely go back to the...

We booked the hotel for its proximity to Simmons Yat, a well known beauty spot. The hotel turned out to be just as attractive in its own way for our 7 day stay. The rooms were comfortable and adequately appointed. In the restaurant we found the menus to be wide ranging in choice and the quality of the food and presentation to be generally good. A few of the dishes, namely the Beef Stroganoff, Rump Steak and the Soup and Brie starters to be exemplary. The bar had a good selection of beers and...

This is a lovely, quiet and welcoming hotel. Stayed here for Valentines Day and I was not disappointed. Lovely valentines menu was reasonable and tasty. The room was immaculate and had everything we needed. Will definitely be going back there.
