Location is perfect closest car park walking distance Abbey Grounds Car Park (it is expensive tho). Nice and spacious room but a tiny bathroom. Good shower. Room was very clean and comfortable. Quiet room. Easy check out (drop off keys box).

No breakfast available although you have many choices near by. For what you pay for one night they could at least leave you natural coffee and some biscuits in the room. When checking in, you have to walk through the pub and everybody stares at you I found that super uncomfortable. Also they wanted us to pay for our booking again when we had already paid in advance. Everybody makes mistakes but please make sure that you know in advance whether your guests have paid or not.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Great position in centre of town with parking within a few minutes walk. Easy access to the room at all times of day & night. The room has just been refurbished to a very high standard and the bed was very comfortable. The pub was lively, which suited us, but we didn't notice any noise in the room, either from the pub or surrounding area. Great cafes within 30 seconds walk, so no breakfast not an issue.

With being very recently refurbished a few minor snags (eg kettle missing) but these were all sorted quickly. Check when food will be available if you want to eat in the pub on the evening.

The room was beautiful, with high ceilings, a kettle with many different types of tea, a TV (that had streaming capabilities), and lots of natural light coming through the windows. The bed was also quite comfortable, and the shower pressure was lovely. It's also secluded from the restaurant downstairs, so it's very quiet and cozy. Value for money was very high.

Only a very slight qualm, but the bathroom was very small/cramped. That is to say, turning on the shower meant a rapid entry into the shower itself, as some of the water could've escaped into the toilet area! The sink is also very small, so filling up the kettle was a little awkward.

The location was perfect for me with decent parking just around the corner. The rooms are recently refurbished and the showers hot and powerful; bed was super comfy. Staff are very friendly and efficient. Sam sells the place brilliantly. Rachel and the restaurant team work very hard and produce lovely food - Tapas and Chicken Supreme stand out. The ale is lovely (my hangover said too lovely!)

They are so popular I cant get the rooms I want for the same time next year!

The location was good for the town. The bed was comfy and the facilities in the room were enough to enjoy the weekend.

The toilet seat wasn't fixed securely so had a wobble. One of the windows knocked with the wind blowing. Everything was good. The ceiling on the stairs was a tad low and banged my head a couple times coming from the landing down the stairs until I got used to ducking as I came down them

The bed is comfortable. Bath room and hot shower is excellent. Just prepare to carry your luggage up the narrow stairs, I think all the apartment should be the same. We are prepared and cabin size is just good .Wifi is a bit slow at the top level, maybe due to wifi extender. We had dinner at the resturant and some beer, and it is very good .

Nothing to "Don't like"

Beautifully decorated family room. very quiet despite being above the pub and in the historic centre. All beds were very comfortable. It may have been newly refurbished. everything looks models and selected with taste. The price was very competitive for the region. The location was perfect, by the cathedral and main square.There is a carpark 5 min walk from the pub. It is free from 6pm to 8m.

It was right in the centre of Cirencester, walking distance of a free car park on a Saturday evening and Sunday which was perfect for us to stay overnight on the weekend. The owner & staff behind the bar couldn’t of been friendly and more accommodating. The apartment was also very spacious.

Nothing we didn’t like.

Our hosts were fantastic. Nothing was too much trouble.They explained that they had recently taken over and that certain work was still to be started. The pub was fantastic, very popular with the locals, which is a good sign. The food was great. The work on the rooms start this month and sound fantastic when complete.

Nothing. Everything was as expected.

The food in the restaurant downstairs was delicious, best fish and chips I've ever had! and the staff were so nice and I felt well taken care of. My room was clean and bed was comfy.

The room wasn't very noise proof. I'm not usually bothered by noise, but there was all sorts of crashing and bashing throughout the night that kept me awake.
