Disappointed. Pictures make it look like there is a pool steam room and sauna at the premises. It even lists sauna and steam room and the main picture shows a lovely pool. In reality they give you a feee pass to a pool at a leisure club/boxing gym which is a 5 min walk away.

I understand that it’s difficult doing food but the food here was really bad. I was extremely tired so just leftmost of it and went to bed.

Had a lovely short stay here- room comfort, ambience and service were absolutely top notch. We were staying in one of the larger rooms that the hotel had to offer and were rather spoiling ourselves - but absolutely we believe we made the right choice as the room had wonderful space and comfort. The front desk staff were lovely both at check in and check out and can also say that the lady running breakfast was really friendly and cheerful which had a nice positive effect. The walk into the town centre wasn't too far, and the local area was quiet. We would definitely plan to stay again of were were in town.

Nice comfortable stay
We received a warm welcome on arrival though room was not ready yet (which we expected). It was a nice building but a little tired in places. The window frame to the room had bare wood and flaking paint and some of the frame was rotten. Some of the wallpaper was peeling away. Despite this it appeared clean and it was a good location. Breakfast was nice too. However it should be stated there was no lift which could be a problem to elderly or infirm. This should be made clear on the website.

Lovely hotel, comfy with dog friendly option. No pool onsite. Good service with prompt attention to put things right when there is a problem. Well done for that. Lovely regency square with park/gardens located 3 mins from town centre. Dozen car spaces and ample NCP space only 1 min walk. Would definitely return.

Summary
Short stay. Everyone was great, food good, service perfect. The rooms are a wee bit small with no great place to put down a 2nd suitcase. We managed and it was still bigger than another place we stayed. Other than that, it was a great location and we would stay there again!

Hotel appeared to have a gym and pool, this turned out to be off site, which I dont think was clear from their listing. Hotel itself was good, room a bit small but we only had standard. Shower temp in room 8 was way too hot couldn't get it to cool off and needs some attention

Comfortable and convenient
Overall a really comfortable stay. Only issue was when I arrived into the foyer the reception was shut, I followed the instructions to ring the doorbell but there was music playing loudly in the bar downstairs and the staff didn’t hear the bell. Eventually I just took myself downstairs to find somebody so that I could check in. The shower was nice and powerful but the wet room style room meant that water covered a lot of the floor of the bathroom, perhaps a small ledge/lip could be installed to keep it within the shower cubicle area.

Great Food - Shame about the Staff
The restaurant is super - the Chef very engaging and the food was excellent. The bedroom was also good ; which is more than can be said for some mebers of Staff, Let's be generous - let's say they were rude becasue of their inexperience.

Thank you Anonymous for your feedback. As you checked into the hotel with an invalid credit card, my team should have asked you to leave. As it was they allowed you to stay and trusted you to pay in the morning. No other hotel would have been so accommodating. Best wishes

Dear Ryan, we are very sorry you were allowed to make a same day reservation at 11.30pm at night and then could not access the hotel when you arrived at 1.45am. Our profile clearly states that the latest check in is 11pm and we are currently investigating how you were able to make the reservation in the first place. The 2 out of 10 does not reflect on the superb quality and service we strive to provide. Best wishes.

Well located, quiet hotel in a good location in Cheltenham. Staff attentive and helpful. Standard Room was very small and a bit dated. Wifi was virtually none existent in the room. Good breakfast and a small free car park which was very useful.

The hotel is excellently located a few minutes walk from lots of eateries and the main shopping high street. There is a park just opposite good for pooch walking before bed/in the morning. The hotel is dog friendly and the staff were all just lovely. Would highly recommend. The only thing to note is the pool is a 5 min walk away and was unfortunately closed during our stay. The rooms were spacious and clean. The hotel was quiet despite it's proximity to the centre of Cheltenham. Would definitely return here.
