Top Gloucester Waterways Museum Hotel Reviews

Hotel Indigo Gloucester The Forum By IHG

8/10 Good

"Only complaint is hot water which mostly was highly variable but no ever hot enough for a comfortable shower"

Gloucester Robinswood Hotel by Sunday

10/10 Excellent

"Fairly clean room older style decor though clean. great night sleep. restaurant not open bar food only on my stay a little pricey for drinks and food value for money with a gym /pool"

Holiday Inn Gloucester-Cheltenham by IHG

8/10 Good

"We had an enjoyable stay here. The beds were comfortable and there was plenty of parking. The bathroom was a bit dated though and I was surprised there wasn’t any hair conditioner (only shampoo and hand/body wash) so I would bring my own conditioner next time. Pool was ok but smaller than it looks in the photos so can get a bit too crowded at times."

The New Inn by Roomsbooked

10/10 Excellent

"Good location, friendly staff"

The Linden Tree

8/10 Good

"Lovely stay,room was satisfactory.Bit of music noise from pub downstairs to the first floor bedroom.But to be expected.Centrally located,15 min walk to The quays.Outdoor seating area could be made nicer at the front.Breakfast was the highlight.So well presented and excellent."

The Judges Lodgings Boutique Hotel

8/10 Good

"The Judges lodgings are in a great location for visiting Gloucester and nearby Cotswolds. The size of the apartment was perfect for our family and had all of the amenities required, even included shower gel, hand wash etc. The beds were not the most comfortable and we didn't bother using the single fold up bed. We were disappointed that there was no freezer in the apartment, which is useful when you are self catering. Also, we had 2 cars and parking was only available for one car. We paid for extra parking, which was a short walk away, but the location wasn't great, and had homeless people living outside the building where parking was located. However, I raised my concern and we were given alternative parking which was much better"

Beautiful 2 Bedroom Apartment With Parking in The Docks

10/10 Excellent

"I stay here when on business in Gloucester as it’s such an amazing apartment. The communication from the host is outstanding and so easy to follow, the location is gorgeous right on the quays a minutes walk from the canal, bars bistros and restaurants. The parking is gated so super secure and the fact you get your own spot means there’s no worrying about whether you will get parked or not as I do at many of the hotels I stay at. The apartment block is quiet and the neighbours are all friendly. The kitchen is well equipped although I don’t really use it as the area has such lovely eating places. The beds are really comfortable and has plenty of sockets at each side (again something you don’t always get in hotels). Looking forward to my next visit to Gloucester and staying here again."

The Edward Hotel

8/10 Good

"."

Premier Inn Gloucester - Quayside

10/10 Excellent

"Priced was right, rooms were clean, everything was in good working condition, located close to The Docks (lots of great restaurants, pubs, breweries), plenty of parking, amenities were sufficient. Would stay there again!"
