The room was adequate, however, could do with a refurb. The breakfast was not cooked fresh and was therefore not hot. A bit disappointing considering we have stayed there many times.
Friendly helpful staff.

Had a fab stay - staff friendly at check in and the room was excellent. We stayed in 21 which had a four poster bed and plenty of space - it was wonderfully traditional and added to the stay perfectly. There is plenty of parking at the hotel and breakfast was good value with lots of choice. We stayed for the racing and it was an ideal location - would definitely recommend and stay again.

Just Poor....
Breakfast Menus in the rooms and when we went down in the morning they told us that they were not serving Breakfast.
Wouldn't revisit
The new AI chat bot the hotel chain is using is absolutely terrible.It was very frustrating to use and a number of attempts were made to make a recommended table reservation .This proved imposdible and so annoying , time wasting and ineffective that it may make me think twice about staying there again

Good but needs improvement
The hotel was clean throughout and the staff were polite and helpful. The whole place needs renovating though. Our room, especially the bathroom, was dated and felt damp. It was cold in the mornings and we couldn't get the radiator to come on. There is also not much sound proofing throughout the hotel and we could hear every noise inside and out. The location is fantastic though, convenient for getting into Cheltenham without being in the middle of everything and the view is amazing. With some modernisation this hotel could be brilliant but at the minute it is just a good base for Cheltenham if you don't want to stay in the city intself.
We had a fantastic stay at the rising sun, staff were very friendly and helpful. Great location with a stunning view, great amenities in the room and the option of the pub and restaurant downstairs! Would highly recommend.

Key essentials are very good - hot strong shower, comfortable beds. Room decor is in need of some attention, but it is big site and understandably difficult to keep on top of. Not really an issue. Front facing rooms have great views, but road traffic can start early. Otherwise was very quiet. Would recommend.
