Choose somewhere else
Positives 1. The staff at the front counter when checking in and out are helpful. 2. Plenty of pillows for your bed. 3. Large room. 4. Large TV. Negatives. 1. The heat in the room makes it difficult to sleep. Aircon is not installed. 2. The extractor fan in toilet didn't work so the mirrors would steam up and long term this will lead to damp in the room. 3. There is a sewage smell that leaks into he room from the sink and bath in the bathroom. 4. The shower curtain smells like it has mold trapped in its pores. 5. The gym has not been maintained so everything you touch is covered in rust. 6. The car park in the front has not been maintained so it has no lines and people park selfishly and take up 2 car spaces. 7. I made a request for poached eggs. Somehow this was also too much to ask. The egg had a strange tangy taste to it, so I'm not sure how it was prepared.The coffee is terrible, again I'm not sure how coffee can go wrong.

Hotel was nice, staff polite front of house looks great and welcoming Dinner AVOID - over priced, pricing not clear on menu. Some items on kids menu, not suitable for young children. £5 for corn on the cob side that read as if it was included in the kids meal, mushy and chargrilled so not palatable. Breakfast Nice - although at busy periods not all items avaliable. Appear kitchen could not keep up. Room Nice room, clean tidy, everything you need, bed a bit hard for us though. Pool - nice that its available but wouldn't recomend. Water was cloudy and uninviting.

Stay at Cheltenham 18/10/2024
Very clean and welcoming, an additional charge for Parking for genuine users is a bit much, it should be included as should breakfast and to put it up by £3 if you don’t make a decision on check in is not good needless to say I’ve booked into another hotel for 4 nights in Cheltenham

Average stay
The receptionist was lovely and gave my sister and I a few perks as I was getting married the next day. The bar staff were friendly & the breakfast staff were helpful when getting more non-dairy milk as there was none out to help ourselves to. The rooms and ensuites were average. The dinner staff were ok but didn't warn us of a large corporate party dining at the same time meaning we had a wait of nearly an hour just for some pasta and chicken. The food was tepid and average tasting at best when it did arrive. £7 for parking is also outrageous. At least embed it in the price of the room. The hotel is not even near the station or town centre so car park charge seems unnecessary.

Good stay
Just an over night stop en-route to Devon. We arrived around 2100. Have a good dinner and service was great! Room was good. Shame the pool wasn't open in the evening and not in the morning when my daughter wanted to swim (0700-0900). Parking wasn't free either but apart from that, a good stay!
