The George Hotel - A 16th-century coaching inn with courtyard dining, historic views, and business-friendly amenities

A 16th-century coaching inn situated in the centre of Wallingford, The George Hotel offers private en suite bathrooms with Sky TV and free Wi-Fi in all rooms. Guests can enjoy traditional pub meals in The Tavern Bar, featuring wood beams and a log fire, or lighter dining in The Bistro. The ruins of Wallingford Castle are visible from the hotel's rear, and the courtyard provides space for al fresco dining. The George Hotel includes 24-hour room service, laundry facilities, and business amenities such as conference rooms for up to 120 delegates. Regular buses run to Oxford and Reading from Market Square, a short walk away. Non-smoking, family, and ground-floor rooms are available upon request.

Pros

The historic 16th-century building features original wood beams and a log fire in The Tavern Bar.

The courtyard offers heated umbrellas and seating for outdoor dining.

Free Wi-Fi and 24-hour room service are available in all guestrooms.

Convenient access to Wallingford Castle ruins and Market Square transport links.

Cons

No on-site spa or pool facilities.

Some rooms may face interior courtyard views rather than historic landmarks.

“The George Hotel strikes a pleasant balance, situated centrally yet retaining a quiet atmosphere. I found the staff consistently helpful, and the inclusion of EV charging is a definite plus. While dinner might not be the highlight, the comfortable rooms and convenient parking make it a solid choice for Wallingford.”
