Top Cheltenham Hotel Reviews

Queens Hotel Cheltenham

8/10 Good

"Everything was great - no issues. Car parking was also well integrated but it appeared to be only 24hr blocks. Might be handy if you arrive early to be able to get 26 or 30 if exploring the next day. Room was large and airy, nicely decorated and bathroom was clean and well appointed with everything you need. Only thing I couldn't locate was info about mini bar and if the water in the fridge was complimentary or chargeable. I'd happily stay again."

Ellenborough Park

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful place to stay!!"

No 131

10/10 Excellent

"We had a lovely stay at No.131 in Cheltenham. The hotel is beautifully presented, stylish and very clean, with a great location that makes it easy to explore Cheltenham on foot. The staff were particularly friendly, welcoming and helpful throughout our stay, and the service was excellent. Our room was comfortable and well maintained, and the whole hotel has a relaxed but elegant atmosphere. A very enjoyable stay overall and somewhere we would happily recommend and return to."

Cheltenham Chase Hotel & Spa

8/10 Good

Cowley Manor Experimental

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent stay!"

Citrus Hotel Cheltenham by Compass Hospitality

8/10 Good

"First time staying in the Citrus Hotel Cheltenham. The family room we had was a surprise in that it was so huge. It even had self catering facilities in a cupboard including a sink, microwave and kitchen utensils! The room was dated and looked like we could have been in the 80’s, but it was very clean and quiet. The location is fantastic for walking into central Cheltenham, and the small car park beneath the hotel was an added bonus at £10 per night. We would definitely stay in the hotel again if we were to spend a day or two in Cheltenham."
