Avoid

The appearance of a charming and characterful establishment quickly turned into a thoroughly underwhelming experience. Strict adherence to the 2pm check-in time was unnecessarily inflexible, especially when guests arrive early after long journeys. This lack of hospitality was the first of many concerns. The bar area, which could have been a continuation of the hotel’s historic charm, felt out of place with its overly modern decor. Additionally, signs advertising “real ales” were misleading, as none were actually available. We paid £170 for a room, yet this did not include breakfast or parking. While the rooms were reasonably comfortable, they were extremely basic, and we've since noticed the same rooms now being advertised at nearly half the price we paid. The courtyard was a welcome respite from the busy High Street, but sadly this was the only real highlight. A friend’s room was shockingly below standard, with dirty walls, short curtains that didn’t cover the windows, cracks and holes in the ceiling, and an overall atmosphere that felt more like a hostel than a hotel.In another room, one side of the mattress was completely collapsed due to broken springs, making for a very uncomfortable night. Worse still, we found dirty tea cups and even a bloodstain on the bedding.Breakfast was acceptable, but one of the orders was incorrect. By the time the issue was resolved, the rest of our group had all finished.

Gorgeous old quaint hotel in central location

Overall it was lovely but the bed was a double with two singles pushed together and our legs kept slipping in between. Also i know it was a very old building but the floor was very uneven and we felt drunk even though we wasn't which was daunting.

When we arrived the service was slow but efficient. Becky who was on duty very professional. Our room was clean but needed updating .no water glasses or glasses to clean teeth . No ironing board we were going to a wedding so our clothes was creased . After being in a case . Ther stairs were a death trap no rails on left side . No gluten-free options . The tables were very sticky Becky came to clean straight away . The building is ver old 1455 it needs a urgent refit if I new it was like this I would of stayed at the travel lodge

No air conditioning

Booked this hotel as it was advertised as having air conditioning and I knew it was going to be a hot week. No air conditioning insight. Small fan in room that was broken. Hot rooms. Don’t stay here in the summer if you want to sleep.

The only worthwhile unique aspect of the hotel was its age and character of the building like many other buildings in Gloucester city centre. I really do not understand how Expedia are not embarressed when sending their clients here. It is apparant that a duty of care on behalf of us has not been undertake. Conclusion: (I apologise for this being first) 1. This hotel does not want overnight hotel guests. 2. Shocking that Expedia are willing to offer this venue. It is a pity that there is not options for photographs While in our room the music was so loud it felt like being in a rave dance club from 4.30 until 11pm. We were chased out of the room by this. Returning at 9pm the only people in the bar were the receptionist abd a barman wearing a pink cowboy hat dancing behind the bar. While in our room we increased the television sound level until it was uncomfortable to compete. During the time 9 - 11 I popped down to the bar to see no customers and only the pink cowboy hat dancing. This hotel is simply run for the staff and not the guests. From 11pm until 2.25am there was constant noise from people moving about and doors banging. This started again around 5am! 8.30am the hotel was woken with the exceptionally loud dance music as a global alarm call. Why? The room huge patch of ceiling paper hanging down adjacent to the highlighting the damp underbeath it. There is a photograph. Bathroom well laid out and ideal. Why are there cracked floor tiles and grout missing?

The staff were amazing! Really friendly, done everything they could to make sure you had what you wanted or needed when it came to breakfast or dinner times when dining. Only small issue was how noisy it was from the town side in the mornings with cars etc driving up and down with deliveries as we had a room right at the front of the building, would had been happier with a room at the back with less noise unless the windows could be redone to reduce sound

Not at all like the ad. Room smells. furniture beyond scrapping, dead flies everywhere. Bathroom.. disgusting. Staff nice but there was nothing they could do. This is why people go to Premier In! At least you know what you get. Asking for refund
