The Stroud Hotel

There are hotels where one merely leaves a suitcase, and hotels where one begins to suspect that staying another night would be an excellent idea. The Stroud Hotel is firmly in the latter camp. The old stone building has bags of character and a wonderfully welcoming atmosphere. My room was cosy, the bed exceedingly comfortable, and downstairs awaited that most civilised of arrangements: a proper pub and restaurant serving excellent food. The staff were a delight. Grant and Josh, in particular, were absolute legends, bringing the sort of warmth and good humour that makes a guest feel genuinely at home. With the station and town centre an easy stroll away, the practicalities were every bit as pleasing as the hospitality. A thoroughly lovely stay. Leaving required rather more resolve than checking in.

Fabulous bedroom and v quiet and clean and cosy and restaurant was v good - it had a real boutique hotel and old worldly feel

Nothing

Close to the town centre and train station so you never feel far away from anything.

Good restaurant and bar area , close to train station .

Very overpriced , I paid £630 for two nights in what was advertised as suite with courtyard view ! The window couldn’t be opened for the noise and smell from extractor fans that was the view from the window , shocking room service , 1 bath and hand towel to share for both of us , not luxury at all
