We love the location of this hotel. Nice and quiet though a little crazy for traffic & parking at busy times. Also the bar closed far too early at the weekend! Rooms are very spacious clean & comfortable. Breakfast is good though you have to pay extra for this. We would definitely visit again.

Great stay would recommend.
The room was clean and comfortable. Can not fault the accommodation. The restaurant was clean and well kept. Breakfast was nice but I felt a whole mushroom and piece of black pudding could have been served rather than half of each. Especially for the price.

A great night spent at Horndon-on-the-Hill
Although I only stayed for one night at this lovely hotel the staff and the atmosphere made my stay a wonderful experience. Definitely eat at the pub downstairs - they have some excellent food!

Exceptional find!
Beautiful and spotless accommodation. Fabulous helpful and attentive staff. Breakfast to die for! Loved the meadow for walking the dog and delighted she was allowed in for breakfast. We have already booked again for next month.

This property is amazing, the service was great. The village was quiet with not much nearby but if you are looking for something out of the way and good quality, this is a good shout

Lovely hotel but pricey breakfast
Horndon on the Hill is a picturesque village and the Bell is a delightful pub and hotel. The rooms are comfortable, clean and quiet and in a pretty setting. My only gripe was breakfast which can work out really expensive. Toast and jam is £4.10, a 'Variety' pack cereal £2.50 and tea £2.50. My breakfast cost £17.10 and it could have been more.

Extremely clean and tidy
It was a great view despite the tight access to the carpark there was parking in front of room. The room was clean and tidy, the bed was very comfortable and the bathroom was very modern and clean. The staff were polite and friendly and very helpful.
