This hotel is not in a great location if you want things on your doorstep but the standard of the hotel and level of service makes up for this. We drove so it was not an issue for us to get into the town centre. On the first night we took a taxi which was around £6-8. Parking is £8... More

We last visited this hotel in Sept 2009 I rated this 4* unfortunately this recent visit did not live up to the same standard. We again booked a dinner (with wine) bed and breakfast deal which was good value for money. The room we stayed in this time was comfortable but could is looking a little tired and old. Shortly...

I had a booking for a nights stay at the thistle Cheltenham, only to get there to be told that they were over booked and that i would have to stay at another hotel, I was a little disappointed at first. but the way that the gent on reception handled it was brilliant! if I’m correct his name was Joe....

The online price was good and the fact that the checkout time was 12pm was perfect as it meant we could lie in. On arrival it was easy to find... More

Thistle makes me think of spikey, scratchy discomfort but this hotel is nothing like that - maybe a name change is in order! I had to park a long way from the entrance on a snowy night and take a long walk to get inside, so didn't arrive at Reception in the sunniest of moods. BUT - the gentleman on... More

We attended the January 28th race meeting, arrived on Friday and left on Sunday. The staff was friendly and helpful, the breakfast was superb self service with a large selection of food to suit all tastes, the quality of the bacon and sausage was excellent , we had the three course evening meal for £20, which was very nice although...

We stayed for two nights, commencing 20th Jan. Unfortunately we had not sussed out how far from town the hotel was, having been blinded by the cheap deal for a suite (£70 a night). We did walk in but it took a good 35 mins each way even at yomping pace. Lift was out of order, supposedly temporarily but it... More
