Reviews and Ratings
The hotel offers cozy rooms with everything you need, although it can get a bit noisy due to its central location. The service is outstanding, especially with accommodating our early check-in needs. The location is right in the heart of a charming Cotswold town, surrounded by plenty of dining options, but noise levels can disrupt sleep. The dining experience was a mix of highs and lows, with exceptional dishes but also some delays and quality issues. Overall, a comfortable stay with minor disturbances.
I found the hotel to be in a central location, making it convenient for a quick stop or a night out. The rooms, though small, were adequate and clean with tasteful furnishings, but better lighting could have enhanced functionality. The service was overall brilliant, with some initial frostiness upon arrival, and the dining experience delivered delicious breakfast, albeit a bit slow. The location, though separate from a busy pub, may benefit from controlled noise levels at night. However, the set-up for breakfast could be more accommodating for early risers.
The hotel was separate from the pub in the beer garden area with friendly and helpful staff. The rooms were in good condition; however, the breakfast toaster was not working well. The location was perfect in the heart of the town, but had some noise from music in the evenings and early morning deliveries. Dining options were very good with delicious choices, especially scrambled eggs on the first morning.
I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The rooms were well-equipped with modern bathroom facilities and had everything I needed for a deluxe room experience. The service was top-notch, and the location was excellent for exploring the town center. However, the dining experience was a bit slow. Overall, a great value for money.
I stayed at the hotel which is conveniently located near the car park. The room was gorgeous, clean, and even came with a local beer, offering a comfortable stay. The service was top-notch with friendly and helpful staff. The location couldn't have been better, right in the center of a historic town with plenty of dining options. The dining experience had its ups and downs, but overall decent.
My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were cozy with lovely personal touches, but noise levels were unacceptable at times. The service was top-notch, particularly from a younger lady with short hair who was outstanding, although there were some minor issues with the room maid. The location was ideal for exploring the Cotswolds, but there were disturbances that affected my rest. The dining experience was good overall, although there were minor issues like weak teabags. Despite some drawbacks, the hotel offered value for money with great amenities.
The hotel was great for the wedding we attended at Merris Court. The 'deluxe double' room we stayed in was comfortable, but lacking a light in the area used for making tea/coffee and hair drying. The outside drinking close to our rooms was a bit noisy at times.
