From the WhatPub website:-
Large and comfortable lounge bar in a town-centre hotel, once a coaching inn, belonging to the Wetherspoons chain. Splendid views across the Severn Valley from the bar and terrace.
Before re-opening as a Wetherspoons house The Foley Arms closed suddenly in January 2010. The hotel’s history had begun exactly 200 years earlier, at a time when Great Malvern was developing into an important spa town. The Georgian-style coaching inn was designed for John Downs by Samuel Deykes. It was originally named the Downs’ Hotel, but was soon renamed The Foley Arms, in honour of Edward Foley. He was lord of the manor and responsible for building the Coburg Baths, the Pump Room and the Royal Library next to the Foley Arms – which formed the hub of the fashionable health resort.
