Fodor's Expert Review Royal Seven Stars Hotel

Conveniently located at the bottom of the main street, this centuries-old coaching inn has counted Daniel Defoe and Edward VII among its former guests. A modern makeover has transformed the interior without sacrificing its period features and created well-equipped bedrooms that are clean and elegant (some have four-poster beds and spa baths). It's worth upgrading to a Premier or De Luxe room for more space. Hot and cold snacks are available in either of the two bars. Note that there is no elevator and the stairs are a bit steep.
