    Wifi must be initiated down in the pub and regularly drops out in the room - very sporadic wifi access which is an issue. The hotel is on the main street, so is noisy at night/early morning.

    The location is fabulous, right opposite Glastonbury Abbey, walk to Chalice Wells and the Tor, and the village. Friendly and helpful team.

    Good price. Free (but limited) parking. Well placed in Glastonbury, comfortable bed, good shower, good towels, good staff - Kelly was exceptional.

    The double bed was two single beds stapled together, and there was a damp patch by the window which was by one side of the bed. For comfort, that was the downside and therefore I think it was a bit pricey.

    The location, the helpfulness of staff, the breakfast and service, and beer were all excellent. The staff were resourseful and let me store my festival trolley in a safe place. The pub / bar had a modern decor and had good sized beer garden.

    Could be bit cleaner wasn't filthy but bit dusty shower door hanging and wouldn't stay closed bit tiny ensuite to get in and out but we are skinny people and was one night stay so it was ok for us. Food could be better bit touch and go depending on what you order but again I feel price reflects this but in order to keep guests in rooms with you food really needs improving. Chips were awful steak was ok mine was bit rarer than I'd asked but was ok for a tenner but rather pay bit more and have a chef? Drinks menu was totally rubbish and we only had 1 drink there. Could do with more information on check in as one guest kept bothering my companions in another room giving them his rubbish as if they were staff even tho they told him didn't work there. Luckily he dealt with my sister and not me as that really irritated me. He also asked me if I worked there I said no and just walked into my room. We had one night and had to pander to him I'm unsure why he didn't just go to the bar and bother the staff. Also we had a key to side door but someone kept putting latch on (probably same idiot that was bothering my sister) which meant we had to keep walking through the pub and at one point band was playing and it was really awkward as we kept having to walk past them to get to our room. However all that aside I would stay here again as location is perfect but probably only for few nights. Again Price is key.

    In middle of town so central easily able to walk to Tor, Chalice well white springs etc. Abbey literally across the road. Goddess centre down road. Room was ok good price.This is key here if you want a cheap stay in middle of everything, perfect. I was happy with what I got for the price . If your using public transport bus stop literally outside door. Perfect if you don't drive as everything in walking distance. Lady that first greeted us was lovely and allowed us to store our bags as our coach got us there hour before check in. Overall fairly nice little pub but maybe go elsewhere to eat and maybe not if your a bit OCD for cleaning. Got to be said though the bed was very comfortable and I actually slept really well and I do suffer from insomnia and struggle to sleep away from home so that was amazing! Would stay again just for the bed! Some fairly decent towels too nice and fluffy. Pillows were even great too. Staff were nice and helpful but seemed a bit rushed/busy at times.

    The bathroom was probably the smallest we have encountered when staying away. There was live music in the bar one evening which was loud in our room, mind you it didn't bother us too much.

    Great location right in the centre of Glastonbury. The Abbey and Tor could be seen from our window. The room was of good size, clean and comfortable. Breakfast was plentiful and of good quality. The food in the bar was nice and very reasonably priced.

    The Wi-Fi was a little temperamental to log in to. It wouldn’t let me login and connect from my room but was fine closer to the bar, and then I was able to use it in my room thereafter. Breakfast was well cooked and tasty but there weren’t what I would call ‘continental options’ other than toast/breakfast sandwiches. There were vegetarian options on the fry-up though, which was welcomed!

    Very friendly and helpful staff and the room was spacious and clean with a gorgeous view of the Tor and Abbey. Mattress was a little firm but that’s just personal preference! The room was quite warm but a fan was provided, as was a hair dryer and ironing board and the usual tea/coffee making facilities. The Market House is in the centre of town and, as it says on their website, they do have music until about 11pm most weekends and some weekday evenings, (and a few outside tables both front and back), so it isn’t the quietest of locations. However it’s super convenient for visiting Glastonbury and seeing the sights.

    It would be unfair to say the noise level from music could be less. It is the nature of a pub to be noisy. You were for warned that it was noisy at weekends. It was noisy on a Wednesday night. Being on the main road things got going as early as 5.30. May have been a little later. Deliveries were being made, traffic was on the hoof, and the buses were loud. It was a new experience for me.

    The best thing was the friendliness of the staff. It was easily accessible to major sights to see at Glastonbury. Also the bus stop back to BTM was on your doorstep right outside near the pub. I had visions of having to walk a long way with heavy luggage. It was a relief to be able to book up for only one night. Most places seem to have a limit of 3 nights.

    It seems the bar staff are the reception to those visitors to Market House who have booked accommodation overnight or for longer. So every person has to collect there keys form the bar area it seems . It is noisy with most of the accommodation being over the bar area and although I wear two hearing aids I found it noisy as I could hear the music from the bar as well as the TV with football. The door hinges were creaking both to the upstairs accommodation and to the room I had for Wednesday night. The bathroom window did not close properly and so the bathroom seemed cold after a warm shower.

    It was very conveniently situated in the centre of Glastonbury.was the main reason for booking. The room was clean and tidy with essential kettle and tea coffee cups etc. The bed was comfortable.
