Top Gloucester Hotel Reviews

Leonardo Hotel Cheltenham

8/10 Good

"Breakfast and helpful receptionist very good. I booked this hotel as it had an EV charger. Our neighbours in the room nextdoor were a bit noisy, but no fault of the hotel. The duvets were too warm for a summer's day, and only read the bit about asking for a sheet too late."

Holiday Inn Express Gloucester - South by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"All good. Could do with air con in future, the fan didn’t do much with the summer heat."

Gloucester Robinswood Hotel by Sunday
