Platform housing ltd, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Great staff, spacious room, very hot day and our room had a fan, brilliant. Only negative, the carpet wasn't in the best condition, however, for a busy pub with a lot of guests it wasn't a big issue.
Caroline, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Characterful in prime location for visiting cathedral, museums and restaurants. Good sized room and luxury bathroom. Generous breakfast hamper. Facilities let down by inadequate/broken hangers in wardrobe and lack of mirror in the bedroom.
Linda, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Very nice rooms in a characterful old pub. Good breakfast, great cask beers and very nice staff. The room was a little hot given the warm weather, but a small price to pay.

Great pub / hotel loved it.

A very different hotel being the oldest pub in Worcester. Absolutely loved the Cardinals Hat, we will be back.
Richard, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Being above an old pub, we did no know what to expect. We had a love room that was spotlessly clean, a very comfy bed and a smashing bathroom. The staff were excellent as well.
Scott, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Great location.

Great location, however if you’re in a car , it’s very difficult to find a spot and the NCP right opposite the hotel has an entrance a 7 minute drive away but a lot longer in rush hour . The hotel does not have any private parking! .
Andy, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Quirky but fun hotel in centre city Worcester. VERY dog-friendly - which was grand. A nice quiet pub and really helpful staff. We hope to return.

Great pub in Worcester to stay

We loved the Cardinal’s Hat. Fantastic pub and a wonderful place to stay. The bedrooms have been refurbished to a very high standard, beautiful comfy bed and very clean. Fantastic breakfast. Only sorry that we couldn’t stay longer but we will definitely return.

Exactly what i expected from a 14th century pub. Quirky, cosy and charming. Friendly and helpful staff. Right in the centre so very convenient.

10/10 Excellent

Nice comfy room in an old worldy Inn in the heart of Worcester just a stones throw from the cathedral. Friendly staff and good food made for a really enjoyable stay!
Martin, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Lovely, cosy room above a busy pub

Really lovely and cosy room but was a bit cold and the noise levels aren’t great given the single-glazed window. As a pub, checking in was a bit weird but staff were really friendly!
JONATHAN, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Short break away

Lovely old pub, very atmospheric. Room was a little small but clean and comfortable. Breakfast (we paid extra for full English) was very good and freshly prepared.
Yvonne, 2-night trip

Great old place.

Amazing old property. Reeks of history with a great little bar. Virtually no internet connection in the room. Terrific location, with historic Worcester within walking distance.
