Historic 14th-century hotel on Guildford High Street with individually named rooms and a cabaret bar

History & Accommodation

The Angel Posting House & Livery preserves its 14th-century coaching-inn character in a building dating from the 1300s. Guest rooms carry the names of former residents such as Jane Austen, Oliver Cromwell, Lord Nelson, and Lord Byron. Select suites include four-poster beds and individually designed furnishings.

Evening Entertainment

Evening entertainment is provided on site at the cabaret bar Fallen Angel. This venue offers live music performances, karaoke, and live sport events several nights a week. The bar operates with a strict midnight curfew to limit noise in guest corridors.

Dining Options

The hotel's character-filled dining room serves breakfast, lunch, and dinner daily. The building also houses Bill's restaurant, which is accessible directly from the lounge area. A private dining room is available for special occasions and group bookings.

Prime Location

The Angel sits on Guildford's busy High Street, a pedestrianised shopping area during the day. Guildford Castle is a 5-minute walk away, and Guildford Rail Station is less than 5 minutes on foot. Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is reachable from the town.

Family & Pet Friendly

Family rooms are available, and children are welcome throughout the hotel. Pets are allowed, making the hotel suitable for guests travelling with dogs. Both the hotel and the on-site Bill's restaurant are dog-friendly.

“The Angel Posting House & Livery presents a distinct character, often felt in its generously sized rooms and central high street positioning. While the building retains an old-world charm, it's this very authenticity, coupled with the amiable staff, that defines the stay, even if modern conveniences aren't its primary focus. It strikes me as a place where the personal touches and historic atmosphere truly elevate the experience.”
