What happened after The Hotel Inspector?
The Falcon Hotel in London Street, Whittlesey, near Peterborough, was the subject of the seventeenth-series Hotel Inspector episode 'Falcon Hotel, Cambridgeshire', which aired on Channel 5 on 2022-07-28 with Alex Polizzi. TheTVDB's listing describes a sixteenth-century coaching inn run by hotelier Colin and his daughter Jean, who took on its lease 11 years before the episode. The listing gives no further detail on the problems shown, so this entry does not describe them, and none of the sources read says what changed after the visit.
The Campaign for Real Ale's WhatPub listing for the Falcon Hotel, last updated 2026-09-13, shows the pub as open, with regular hours of noon to 11pm Monday to Thursday and Sunday and noon to midnight Friday and Saturday. It lists lunchtime and evening food Monday to Saturday, a Sunday carvery, a Wednesday quiz, darts, cask ale and seven guest rooms, and it records a last survey on 2025-08-09. The listing describes a 200-year-old building, while TheTVDB's episode listing calls it a sixteenth-century coaching inn.
A local directory, The Local View, lists the hotel at 1 London Street, Whittlesey, PE7 1BH, as an independently family-run business that is open 365 days a year, with rooms, a restaurant, a bar, a Sunday carvery, weekly lounge-bar entertainment and an outside catering business with a horsebox bar. That page carries no date.
