A complete disaster from start to finish. Upon arrival, I was told that they had no room for me, because "You have accidentally booked for the following night". When I produced the email confirmation that showed that not only HAD I booked for the correct night, but I had paid for the stay IN ADVANCE, the staff said "you're in luck! you can have very last available room!" As if I should be grateful that they had deigned to provide the service which I had paid for in advance, instead of APOLOGISING for THEIR mistake, which would have been the correct response. When I asked where their car park was, I was told that they didn't have one, in direct contradiction to what they had told me BEFORE making the booking. Then they asked for a credit card for incidentals, but refused to take Amex! What sort of hotel in a tourist town refuses to take Amex? I might point point that Amex seemed to be QUITE GOOD enough for them when taking the fee in advance. When we finally got to the room, it was not the great suite advertised by Expedia, but a rubbish little room above a pub with very definite "you can have very last available room!" Vibes - not what I had paid for - and continual noise from the pub directly underneath. Their WiFi password was a hint to "DontUseExpediaBookDirectWithUs". The only reason I STAYED with them is that they were suggested by Expedia, but I certainly won't do again. And if they don't like Expedia so much, why don't they just leave it?

Hotel and Room were great, however the bar appeared to be under-staffed for what was a busy weekend (Advent Market, etc.) in Cirencester, consequently we waited quite a long time for food, even though we had booked some weeks before. The walk-ins could have been managed better with regards to having meals.

Breakfast was very good but not excellent. Ive had better. The room toilet seat seam stained with something so was wary about sitting on it! But other than that the room was very nice but the pillows were so stiff! Regarding the staff, there were amazing especially the front desk girls i think their names were Kim and Veronica.

Room and amenities were great, spacious room, well equipped, comfortable bed and everything you need in the bathroom and shower. The staff were ok, polite and just friendly enough but don't go above and beyond to make your stay quite special. On arrival we had to ask for the WiFi password, we were referred to a welcome letter that was meant to be on the room but there was nothing there. The following day there was a sporting event and nobody mentioned that access to and from the town would be limited. Small details that actually matter. Overall we had a pleasant stay.

Room cold, particularly the bathroom which only had heated towel rail on at limited time. Huge draft from single glazed sash window. Breakfast very poor; undercooked and inedible on first day and overcooked and tasteless on second day. Staff, as ever, were delightful and helpful.
