Curl up in Horatio Nelson's favourite Best Western hotel in the heart of old-world Salisbury. History's most famous seafarer lay his oddly shaped hat in The Merchant's House centuries ago and now you can too. Today, the 14th century building is the perfect spot to soak up Wiltshire's popular sights, within walking distance of the gloriously gothic Salisbury Cathedral and the magnificent military museum at The Wardrobe. Enjoy a staycation where cobbled streets and country homes live side-by-side, and where the Magna Carta and escape rooms reside. When you've caught up with all the culture the city has to offer, take the weight off your feet in one of 37 newly refurbished rooms, including six superior rooms and the most sought after of them all, The Nelson Room, where Horatio checked in for what we're sure was an unforgettable stay. Kick back in an air-conditioned room with a flatscreen TV, internet access and all the other mod cons the naval man could only dream of. And if you need to refuel for the day, you needn't look far, our on-site dining room serves the heartiest of breakfasts to make your time at Salisbury, smooth sailing.
