De Vere Cotswold Water Park

De Vere Cotswold Water Park

8/10 Good
"First of all the room was difficult to find as you had to go through an extra room door to get there. A big sign said 5 room numbers but only 2 room doors and neither my room number. Tried calling reception no answer. Eventually found a hotel maintenance person who showed me a very tiny sign printed in a small font that was difficult to read on one of those doors which said it led to 2 more rooms. Each had another door with key swipe. (Probably good for families) Better signage or info about finding the room, from reception would have helped. The room was extremely dark (although the bathroom was extremely large and bright) and nothing special for the money paid. When I was parking (free), I hoped my room had a water view but sadly it didnt have any view! It overlooked, and was above an entrance foyer which was noisy as people trundled cases. People on the 1st floor could see in your room as they walked down the corridor so had to close the curtains. I was there for an event which was good and the food nice. The breakfast was plentiful but no weetabix or fried eggs. Restaurant and some rooms - but sadly not mine- had a lovely view."

The Royal George Birdlip by Greene King Inns

The Royal George Birdlip by Greene King Inns

8/10 Good
"Perhaps the reception staff should undertake more training in communication and perhaps slow down and do one job at a time!!! That way not causing a really sad ending to a very long trip from North Yorkshire to Birdlip. Having checked in, full names address etc car details signed form at about 5pm and confirming that a meal booked with them for 4 people arriving for drinks at 7 and a meal booked for 4 at 7.30pm was all in order YES yes all in order.. A short rest taken, came down at about 6.45 pm from our room to advise the reception that our two guests ,(the gentleman could not be missed as he was very tall 6.4 tall slim with a short wife) would be arriving from Cirencester at 7pm for drinks before the meal and would they send them down to us in the restaraunt which was booked by us through the Royal George for 4 at 7.30pm earlier in the week for that evening. THEY WERE TOLD THEY HAD NO PERSONS BOOKED EITHER IN THE HOTEL OR FOR A MEAL THAT NIGHT...They went home as there was no signal either way re our mobiles. On checking ourselves returning to the reception as the time was about 7.30 was informed that yes two people had visited reception BUT THEY HAD BEEN TOLD WE HAD NOT BEEN CHECKED IN AND THERE WAS NO MEAL BOOKED FOR THAT EVENING ...THEY WENT HOME THINKING THAT THEY HAD GOT THE DAY WRONG ..We were able to use the house phone to call them and explained what had happened..WE WERE NOT HAPPY CHAPPIES...all our arrangements for the whole weekend had to be altered.."

10/10 Excellent
"Ive stayed in nicer rooms , ive ate in nicer bars but ultimately its the people that make a hotel. And the people at wilde thyme and honey are fantastic. A special shout out to Izy who couldn't do enough to help. The rooms are cosy and warm with thoughtful touches like pillow spray and a spot of sloe gin which was beautiful, the on site restaurant/ pub was lovely with a great drinks selection. The pantry is a useful addition for extra bits that you may need during your stay. One genuine gripe is that the car park is dangerously dark after dark. There is no lighting at all. All in all it was great. I would return for sure."
