Cotswolds Hotel & Spa

Clean room and kind staff. Lovely setting as our view was over the golf course. Parking was good. Not much choice in restaurant for evening meal, but plenty of places nearby. Breakfast a bit pricey at £14.95 each so we went to nearby Woodstock where there were some lovely cafes.

Hotel looks amazing from the outside. When you go inside it is very out dated. Air con doesn’t work in the rooms. The bed sheets were dusty. Nicest part about the room was the bathroom. Staff in the bar/restaurant were really friendly, food was surprisingly nice after reading bad reviews. Would I stay here again, probably not no.

The room was clean and spacious. However, the Bar Terrace area was not clean: litter, overflowing ashtrays everywhere, and filthy table tops.

We chose The Cotswolds Hotel and Spa for our honeymoon. We were thrilled to be upgraded to a junior suite overlooking the golf course, thank you. Some reviews we read prior to our visit were very negative, but we cannot fault the cleanliness of the room and public areas, they were spotless. Yes, some of the furniture in the room is a little dated, but the public areas were fresh and modern. As we are having a very warm summer, many previous visitors had commented on the rooms not being air conditioned, so we took our own tower fan with us. However, there was a lovely big fan in the room that also helped. The staff were extremely friendly and polite and nothing was too much trouble. My husband played the golf course twice and really enjoyed it. We hired a golf buggy for one of the rounds which was in excellent condition, it seemed to be brand new. Unfortunately the treatments were all booked up, so we cannot comment on these. We can highly recommend the pizzas, they were delicious. If you are having breakfast, the busy time mid week seemed to be between 8 and 8.30, it is much quieter either side of these times. The hotel is in a fantastic location for exploring the Cotswolds, we visited Bourton on the Water, Stow on The Wold, The Diddly Squat Farm Shop and Belnheim Palace (all within 30 minutes or less to the hotel). We would definitely stay here again if we were visiting the Cotswolds. Thanks to all the team for a lovely visit.

We stayed in a studio which was perfect as allowed us to cook our own meals. Hotel bar was a bit tired and they were having trouble with their lines so hubby couldn’t get a pint, friendly enough service but nothing out of the ordinary.
