My stay at the hotel was truly enjoyable. The rooms were of a good size, very clean, and had everything one would expect from a full-service hotel like this. The bed was comfy, and the facilities were top-notch. The only downside was that the AC blew air directly on our faces, which was a bit uncomfortable at times, but overall, a great experience.

The hotel's location was ideal, right next to the M4, making it convenient for a stopover on my trip. However, it wasn't close to any walkable pubs or restaurants, which was a minor downside.

The breakfast was excellent - lots of variety, child-friendly, and all nicely cooked and presented. However, the bacon bap was tepid and dry, and the pastries ran out without a refill despite the number of guests present.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of great and not so great. The rooms were good size, bright, and very clean, but unfortunately, it was very noisy from 4 am onwards due to the kitchen staff turning on the extraction fans. The service was efficient and helpful overall, but there were moments of forgetfulness. The location was ideal for my travels to the Cotswolds, and the staff members were friendly and helpful. The dining experience had its highs and lows, with fantastic value but some disappointing aspects. Overall, a comfortable stay with a few hiccups.

I had a comfortable stay in a very clean and neat room at this hotel, which was also well-priced. The air conditioning, however, was malfunctioning. The service staff during the breakfast session were particularly welcoming, helpful, and polite. The location is ideal, right next to the M4, but it could be improved with snack and drink vending machines. The dining experience was satisfactory, but having an extra half hour for breakfast would have been nice.

My stay at the hotel was overall great. The rooms were a good size, clean, and had convenient amenities like an LCD TV and tea/coffee facilities. However, there was an issue with water refilling that was unnecessary. The staff was fabulous, friendly, and welcoming from arrival to departure, but could benefit from some extra training in customer service and knowledge. The location, right next to the M4, was convenient but a bit tricky to find using sat nav. The dining experience offered a good selection of foods and drinks, although the take-away style was understandable. The hotel facilities were well-maintained.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were clean and very comfortable, located at the end of a corridor away from noise and in good condition. However, the room I initially received posed challenges for accessibility, which made my night quite uncomfortable. On the bright side, the food and staff across all departments were amazing.

My stay was a mix of positives and negatives. The room was basic at best, and the bathroom was in need of a revamp with black marks outside the shower. Unfortunately, the accessibility for wheelchair users was challenging. On the bright side, the staff provided exceptional service, and the location, though next to M4, was convenient for my needs.

The hotel's location, while near the motorway and convenient for visiting nearby towns like those in the Cotswolds, made it a bit challenging to find alternative dining options nearby.
