What guests think

At Dumbleton Hall Hotel, travellers highlight the grand historic building and beautiful grounds, frequently praising the welcoming, friendly staff, while noting that interiors and some rooms feel dated and would benefit from refurbishment.

Cleanliness and maintenance standards are mixed, with several reports of cobwebs, stains, worn furnishings, weak showers, and occasional cold rooms, but others found areas very clean and comfortable. Food feedback is inconsistent: breakfast is regularly praised, yet dinner quality, menu variety, bar staffing, and speed of service can disappoint, and some noted extra charges or uneven portions. Expect a scenic, character-filled country stay with memorable surroundings, but not modern polish.

A little gem in beautiful countryside. Stunning building with interesting history, comfortable rooms - especially the bed - and staff who couldn’t do enough to help. Particularly I would mention the reception staff and team serving breakfast. We also loved the dog-friendliness of this hotel and would highly recommend to dog owners.

Really enjoyed our stay. Fabulous building and grounds. Bar service and meals were poor. The young people running those areas need training. So management should take responsibility there. The dinner menu was very limited. Apart from that it was a nice part of our excellent weekend.

Magnificent historic building set in wonderful countryside. Our 2nd floor superior room was perfectly adequate with great views. Restaurant evening meal was excellent with good service. Breakfast very good. Grounds were lovely with many rare & majestic trees. All added up to a most enjoyable visit.

Fabulous looking place and not badly priced. Not easy to find for us foreigners, but close to Broadway and other Cotswold locations Nice patios with gin and tonics. We had a handicapped room, I think which included a jacuzzi. Unfortunately it was very hot for Britain when we were there and the windows only opened 6 inches. Dining room was so-so. Breakfast fine.

Beautiful grounds and well kept gardens which is great for families and dogs but inside is very tired, much if need of a complete renovation which I understand will happen. Average to poor customer service, poor welcome at reception desk, no housekeeping in rooms - if it was on request we were not told. Breakfast average - disappointed to see a surcharge for salmon when rate advertises breakfast included. Cannot recommend - suggest waiting until renovations are complete.

The parkland setting was very pleasant, surrounded by sheep and mature trees and the building itself imposing. The ‘superior room’ was comfortable and clean though quirky with a bathroom on a lower level which might not be suitable for all guests. Soundproofing with the next room not really adequate with a loud snorer next door ! Staff in the dining room were welcoming, though one of our two meals, the lamb duo was disappointingly lukewarm and partly too tough to eat. Classic fish and chips was fine. Freshly cooked breakfast next day was good. Wi-Fi worked well.

Positives first. The hotel is set in lovely grounds. The staff are welcoming, hard-working and provide good service. We didn't eat dinner here but the breakfast was good although some better quality bread wouldn't have gone amiss. Negatives. The hotel was bought in 2021 and the current owners have yet to address the peeling wallpaper and scuffed paintwork which would greatly improve first impressions. They also need to purchase some new pillows and pillow protectors.

Hotel is due a refurb we were told and it certainly needs it. On the outside fantastic looking building. Inside very grand but is unloved and unkept for a long time it seems. Very dirty, surface clean only, piles of dust by bed, windows large cobwebs, wallpaper looks as old as the house. Most staff very good.

Nice and quiet property but we booked a superior room and it had cobwebs, carpet stains, stains in ceiling from rain, ratty curtains, no complimentary toiletries which it was supposed to have. Beds and pillows were rock hard, travelled with husband and son and although quiet it was hard to get comfortable, there were holes in walks and ripped wallpaper in common areas, place needs some care and attention and a serious facelift

Lovely stay at Dumbleton Hall Hotel. Place oozes style and character. Staff are just wonderful, friendly, efficient, and nothing is too much trouble. Yes maybe the rooms could do with a little tlc, but that almost adds to the charm of the place and the bed was extremely comfortable. Food was good and very reasonably priced – don’t think there was a main course on the menu for over £17.50. Great shame that the Hotel is shutting down soon and the fantastic staff are being made redundant – apparently a “refurbishment” is planned. Just hope the owners don’t lose the very essence of what makes it such a wonderful place to stay at the moment and turn it into some flash spa style establishment. Guess only time will tell.

The hotel outside is great. Driving up the path looks amazing with the evening lights turned on. The downstairs reception area was ok. The problem is the rooms look tired. The pressure of the shower is weak. The room was cold ( single glazing). It was a birthday celebration which my daughter and I were there. We were terribly disappointed and unfortunately we will not be back.

Hotel creates stunning impression with grand approach, amazing architecture and lovely grounds. The staff were very helpful and friendly. Some areas looked a little tired but over all was a good standard. Evening meal was mixed and we felt the restaurant was understaffed. Starters were fine and husband's main was very good (lamb two ways) but my choice from the specials of the day (plaice served with butter sauce) was sub-standard. Bar food looked appealing. Breakfast was truly excellent. Very pleasant visit and would happily return.

We have been to Dumbleton Hall many time but found this trip very disappointing, room was shabby food wasn’t up to how it used to be bacon was burnt first day and breakfast was Luke warm on day 2. I had 10 guest arrive for a light lunch all they said they would do was sandwiches I called 2 days before this to advice them that we had guest and could we pre order food to be told by a frosty male receptionist that they wouldn’t help and we had to order on the day even tho we was staying for 2 days then they over charged us over £100 very very disappointed and sad as it was one of our favourite places to stay

Loved the hotel/location/vibe... However, we ate with a 3yr old + 1yr old at their restaurant. It took over an hour to be served our food (despite being the customers in the resteraunt). Kids were going crazy after some time (~45m). Asked for some bread to appease the little ones... Didn't bring it out until we got our food (+30m later). Dinner was >2hrs - not a great experience with little kids... Still, it was a really fun place, just a rough time at dinner.

An interesting and quirky hotel with a lot of history. Comfortable and clean although a little tired in places. The staff were very attentive, friendly and helpful. The only negative experience was related to the evening meal where the bread that came with pate was almost non-existent and when we asked for more we were charged extra whereas the customer on the next table already had a larger portion! Seems a bit inconsistent.
