Reviews and Ratings
My stay at this hotel was overall enjoyable. The rooms were not as clean as I had hoped, and some more storage space would have been useful. However, having a sofa in the room was a nice touch. The service was exceptional, with the staff being incredibly helpful and attentive, making my stay outstanding. The location was perfect for our family stop off on the way to Cornwall, being close to restaurants and bars. The dining experience was a bit lacking, especially for vegetarians, but the facilities were decent.
My stay at the hotel was a pleasant experience overall. The rooms were spacious, with a good shower and a lovely view overlooking the courtyard. The service was exceptional, with the staff being very helpful and friendly. The location was convenient and central, with easy parking options and proximity to dining spots. The dining experience was delicious, although a bit chaotic during busy times. However, the hotel could improve on offering more diverse dining options. Overall, a comfortable stay with great service.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The room was a bit noisy with the air conditioning and toilet extractor running all night, but the view over Cheltenham was nice. It took a while for the room to heat up, and there was a constant dripping sound which disturbed my sleep.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were spacious and well laid out, but unfortunately, they had a lingering smell of smoke. On the bright side, the rooms were of good standard, spotlessly clean, and featured a nice en-suite bathroom with a good-sized shower. Overall, my stay was comfortable and the room was clean.
The hotel was comfortable and a good size, but a bit run down. We couldn't make the room warmer due to the thermostat issue. The location was fabulous, right in the town center with easy access to food and drink options. The dining experience was good with a buffet breakfast. Service was friendly but a bit defensive with light criticism.
The hotel offers nice size rooms that are warm, clean, and great value for money in a central location. The staff is helpful and friendly, although parking can be a downside. The location is brilliant, central to everything, and ideal for various activities. The dining experience is mixed, with decent continental options but lacking in staff during peak times.
The hotel had a convenient location within walking distance to the town, near restaurants and bars. The rooms were a bit tight for storage and not entirely soundproof but comfortable overall. The service was top-notch with the Deputy Manager going above and beyond. However, the dining options were average at best, and there were some cleanliness issues in the area.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel, enjoying the central location and friendly staff. The room was quiet and had a slightly larger window, offering a nice view, although the dining experience was not perfect due to overcrowding at breakfast. The facilities were good, and overall, it was a value for money stay.
The Holiday Inn had some great perks like close proximity to town centre and Brewery Quarter, discounted parking, and access to nearby facilities. The rooms, although a bit small for three people and had some issues like a bleach spill on the carpet and no air conditioning, were well-designed with excellent beds. The service was mostly helpful and even arranged a complimentary bottle of wine for our anniversary, but did encounter a rude encounter regarding room availability. The location was very convenient for our activities, being near shops, cinema, bars, and cafes, although we did notice some minor cleanliness issues in the shower area. The dining experience was enjoyable with a good variety available, especially the succulent steaks. Overall, it was a mix of positives and negatives throughout our stay.
The hotel had more than enough sleeping space for us, and we were pleased with that. The room with air conditioning was a plus, especially with the expected hot temperatures during our stay. However, a bit more cleaning was needed in the bathroom, and the pool was a letdown.
