Feedback about The Taybank from previous guests about their experience.
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Taybank is appreciated for its gorgeous styling and excellent location, particularly the fabulous outside space right next to the river, where some guests enjoyed breakfast from the lovely hamper. The continental breakfast delivered to the room, featuring croissants from the local bakery, is a recurring highlight for many. While most found the experience delightful, a few guests have mentioned issues with the check-in process. The evening meals receive positive comments, and the wood-fired pizzas at the outside area are a plus.

charming riverside stay

cute staff beautiful location soft sheets
the staff was cute, and the location by the river is beautiful! the breakfast basket delivered to the door was such a nice touch. i especially liked the soft sheets on the bed.
the bin in the bathroom was wire mesh with no bag, so items fell through.

underwhelming stay

sparse equipment lack of staff
the riverside gardens provided a beautiful location, especially when the weather was nice.
I found a distinct lack of staff upon arrival. Nobody was at reception. i had to look for someone to get our keys. the apartment felt sparsely equipped. there were not enough plates for all guests.
