We really enjoyed our stay at the Hopping Hare. Service was exemplary, room was clean and plenty big enough. Restaurant food was a notch above your usual pub grub and reasonably priced. Would definitely stay here again and would recommend to others. We stayed one night for a World Cup rugby match at Franklins Gardens which was within walking distance.
I booked this for our staff who were away training.
They fed back to me that they really enjoyed staying at the Hopping Hare. The hospitality was amazing and the food was really delicious.
It’s definitely somewhere to return to.
Thank you for looking after them so well.
Food was exceptional for both evening meal and breakfast and staff was on hand and very helpful and friendly to deal with during my stay. Rooms were of a very good and clean but of an average standard but would stay again just for the food.
Lovely place, didn't even know it was there!!! Excellent food and the staff were brilliant at accommodating my check in and request for twin beds. Great all round !
We have stayed at the Hopping Hare a few times. It is a great pub, the food is very good, and the staff are very helpful. We would recommend the Hopping Hare to anyone. Only down side is getting to the rooms can be a little tricky - narrow passage ways and stairs.
Lovely hotel clean & tidy - little negatives was how hot it was but it wasn’t their fault with the weather and the bar was shut early but that’s just me
