Short Break

This accommodation was for a short stay in Cheltenham. The accommodation was in an excellent location for the shops and local amenities. The accommodation had a good homely feel, staff were friendly & informative. Breakfast was adequate with a good European variety of foods & drinks.

Nice stay at the abbey

Location handy for a number of different nearby places. I parked in the NPC Brewery Car Park for added security which is 15 mins walk away. Bed is comfy and room is nice. Staff are friendly. Breakfast is continental only.

A perfect 3-day trip in the Cotswold

The staff is friendly, knowledgeable and goes out of their way. The cold breakfast is excellent and plentiful and I loved it. The hotel is minutes from the Center and Cheltenham is centrally located for day trips to nearby cities.

Overall comfortable stay

Overall the stay was nice, but the room could do with a bit of a spricenup. The walls had visible marks on walls, the bathroom was small but the bed was very comfortable. The windows didn’t stop noise from the birds/seagulls which seem to hang around behind this location. The garden was nice and the breakfast room was bright and open.

Good hotel, but check the details of your room

The hotel itself was really nice. However I had booked a single room, and I do not feel it was made clear online or during booking that the single room came with a separate bathroom which was across a landing from the room itself. I wouldn't have booked it otherwise. And for the price, that feels unfair. It's described as having a 'private bathroom' which I did not understand to mean 'separate bathroom'. Perhaps I was being naive. However, apart from this the stay was excellent. Fast check in, very welcoming, brilliant breakfast and nicely done room with lovely carpet.

Not worth the money

For the price I paid it’s simply not worth it. The place is tired and the breakfast is not note worthy at all with just things from Lidl. The general areas of the hotel as worn and to be honest my daughter was simply spooked by the place. It is a strange place to stay and so many better options for that price in Cheltenham. I won’t stay there again They charge £15 for a dog but don’t give you even a dog bowl for water or anything . Simply nothing No nice little touches. No feeling has gone into this property at all. I can’t fault the staff - they were lovely and helpful

Nice location if a bit pricey.

Friendly with good location. A bit expensive for the facilities provided. Shower cubicle door in bathroom not working properly. Light breakfast fine.
