I stayed at this hotel recently, and while the rooms were beautifully decorated and a little bit quirky, the noise from the beer garden below was quite bothersome. The service, particularly from Declan and Lee-Ann, was outstanding, only marred by the occasional late-night noise. The location, though not close to major tourist spots, was very accommodating despite the nearby noise. The dining experience was very good overall, although the lack of alternative choices for substitutes was a downside. The facilities were adequate, but there were some issues with noise and sporadic shower operation.

The rooms were beautifully decorated and a little bit quirky, but being directly over the beer garden made it quite noisy at times. The shower also worked sporadically.

The hotel's location, near an extraction plant and not close to major tourist areas, was a bit noisy but accommodating. It wasn't ideal for those seeking a serene setting.

The dining experience was very good overall, but the limited choices for substitutes, especially for those avoiding animal produce, were a downside. The addition of avocado to baked beans seemed a bit odd.

The facilities were decent, but the noise from the extraction plant and occasional late-night disturbances affected the overall experience.

The hotel's rooms were comfortable and clean, but the lack of a wardrobe and large room size needing the window open impacted the stay. The service was friendly and accommodating, with immediate issue resolution. The location in Bourton on the Water was amazing, despite some shabby elements and being slightly distant from dining options. Dining provided a good variety of breakfasts in a charming garden setting. Facilities were satisfactory.

The room was comfortable and clean, but the large size required the window to be open at least halfway despite cool evenings. The absence of a wardrobe was noticeable.

The hotel is situated just down the road from the central square of Northleach's Cotswold honey-stone dwellings, offering a lovely place to spend the afternoon. The rooms, although cozy with a beautiful copper bath, were very hot and in need of a deep clean and update. The service was exceptional, with staff going above and beyond, but occasional noise disturbances were noted. The location, despite being close to attractions, was overshadowed by proximity to the kitchen. The dining experience was top quality, although limited in options after a previous feast. Overall, a pleasant stay with some room for improvement.

The hotel surprised me with the well-equipped rooms and thoughtful pet amenities, although the lack of facilities and overheated nights were a downside. The service was friendly but occasionally slow. The dining experience was a mix of fantastic and disappointing meals, with some small portion sizes. The location offered great access to amenities and beautiful gardens but needed more attention to cleanliness. Overall, a mixed experience with highlights and room for improvement.

Rooms
7.0
The rooms, although lacking in facilities, were very well equipped with Dyson hairdryer, B&O TV, and a great dog bed with a doggy goodie bag. It was quite hot during the night, but a fan was provided to alleviate this. The transparent glass added a nice touch.
