Stayed here for two nights recently as we wanted to visit Gloucester and Cheltenham as in the past we had just travelled through without stopping. Chose the hotel as it's just outside the centre of Gloucester and within easy reach of Cheltenham and the motorway and provided peace and quiet for a restful break. The hotel is regency in style...

Four of us stayed at this hotel for two nights and had a thoroughly enjoyable experience. The main building is very grand and comfortable, the bedroom was spacious and well equiped. The hotel is in an extremely peaceful location and we were lucky enough to experience one of the first glimpses of sun for 2013 and promptly sat outside the... More

Relaxing weekend spent spent walking around the local area. Coopers Hill (5 mile) walk is worth the climb for the view from the cheese rolling top! Found the local pub (15 min walk) which is a lot cheaper than the hotel for drinks and food. Hotel bar is expensive and at night any guests of the wedding party that are... More

Hotel rooms are spacious, beds large and comfortable. The rooms are generally quiet despite sharing the property with regular wedding events. The restaurant completely surprised me, very good quality ingredients, superb service and a relaxed and informal environment. I had a new York pizza my mum and dad the chicken with veg and potato, all of which were fantastic. I... More

The hotel building is lovely, clean and well appointed and in a super location, the staff helpful and courteous, however the food quality is very poor, heavy, cool, lacking in taste except for salt and over priced and the wine prices are far too high, £21 for average house win is a joke. We will possibly visit again but will... More

Have stayed at Bowden Hall on several occasions. It is always a delight to spend time there. The situation is picturesque, the rooms extremely comfortable and always spotless and the staff could not be more helpful and obliging.
