Reviews and Ratings

Feedback about The Globe Hotel from previous guests about their experience.
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Guests often appreciate the Globe's location in the heart of Topsham, making it easy to explore the town and its surroundings. The well-equipped self-catering apartments are noted for their spaciousness, though they do involve navigating a couple of flights of stairs. Many guests also enjoyed a good breakfast, and those in the main building found the rooms cosy, particularly those overlooking the high street, while some have mentioned that the rooms could use some updating.

The room included top quality bedding and towels. Breakfast had a good variety of food. The staff was unfailingly friendly.
Parking was not available at the hotel. It made loading bags difficult. Housekeeping only came the first day of my four-night stay, this was disappointing.
