The gym had a good selection of equipment. I saw three treadmills plus two stationary bikes available. The breakfast buffet included a wide variety of hot and cold options. Late checkout was an option, which I found convenient for my travel schedule.
I was charged £7 for overnight parking. I found this inconvenient.

Solid stay for rugby weekend

good spaceefficient servicesauna room
I needed a place for a rugby match and this hotel worked well! The room suited three adults with enough space and cleanliness. Staff arranged a taxi to Gloucester. The service was prompt and efficient.
The hotel lacked air conditioning on the second floor, and with a restricted window opening, my room reminded me of a sauna. This.
