What a lovely experience, welcomed by the wardens with a kind and warming smile. Followed by a perfect guiding towards the bike shed and my room. The communal bathroom was spotless. The general vibe was as if I was in a bed and breakfast in the British countryside. The garden is so peaceful and could tell you a million tales...
I can't wait till my next stay.
Canât begin to describe what a great stay this is. A real experience, if you are doing the battlefields, then staying or visiting here is a must. Comfy beds, great facilities and good breakfast. Loft chapel is probably the nicest chapel or church I have ever seen mainly because of the emotion involved. Thoroughly recommend.
Booking for a family via hotels.com doesnât really prepare you for the museum experience you get here.
Our friendly hosts were kind and helpful. We loved the attached museum and the kids loved that the room was actually a âdisplay pieceâ too - but magically we were allowed to go past the barriers.
Iâd plan the restaurant in Popering in advance (especially with children).
Interesting and historic hotel with beautiful grounds and very comfy beds.
Comfortable bed. The old lady in charge during check in did not tell us that we need to pre order hot breakfast!! The garden rooms is noisy when customers check in upstairs
Its bedrooms in the old house are not sound proof in any way and doors slamming into the late evening with recorded historical voice tapes and a chess games room just outside the bedrooms stop you having a good nights sleep. In my opinion the old house should be maintained as just a museum and dining and kitchen area. It doesn't work as a museum and a hotel. The breakfasts were well presented and abundant in variety and the bread, cheeses and ham super fresh.
A historic property which was wonderfully maintained. The best part of my stay was the staff who went out of their way to make one's stay enjoyable. Had hot weather and could have used a fan as no A/C. Had communal bathroon and shower but not a problem. The garden was amazing and although an older house, the stay was great and would stay here again when in the area. Thank you.
Talbot House has a history that is so important and our stay had extra meaning just for that reason. We really enjoyed chatting with other guests, too. The bathroom facilities were immaculate and the beds were very comfortable. It was truly like visiting a 'home'. I would recommend to everyone!
Talbot House was amazing, from the friendly staff to the upgraded rooms which were comfortable and yet maintained the spirit of this special place. Thank you for an excellent stay.
If you're interested in history, you should stay here. This was used by British soldiers during WWI. A piece of history that you can connect with. A rare experience and well worth supporting. The house is great and filled with history and there is a museum which offers free admission to guests at the hotel. We did share a bathroom, but it was always available and very well kept. I will definitely stay here again.
This historic place is impressive to say the least. paintings, photographs and signage on the walls were both beautiful and entertaining. The location is perfect for visiting Poperinge and surrounding area.The back garden is inviting and relaxing. The breakfast was delicious in a lovely setting. I highly recommend Talbot House!
