The Close Hotel

It’s a lovely boutique hotel and the breakfast was excellent but ... we were disappointed with our room. It was on the ground floor bit the windows were high and we couldn’t see out them so it was like being semi-underground. Plus it was close to reception and the general public toilet for the restaurant and bar and was right next to our room. When we checked in we asked to be moved but they didn’t have any spare rooms. I told them it didn’t look like the room on the booking site and that they should charge less (it wasn’t cheap) or at least mention that this room was different to the rest. The lady on reception just brushed it off and said we were lucky we got a room given we had only booked the night before. Not really the level of service you’d expect from a place of this caliber. On a side note (literally) the TV was on the wall alongside the bed which was very odd. Anyhow I would still recommend the hotel just make sure you are not in that room.

This hotel has undergone a very recent upgrade with state of the art bathrooms, lighting, soundproofing and overall decor. Very comfortable beds. The common areas, especially the wonderful back garden with patio dining, are among the best we saw throughout the Cotswolds. We had a power blackout one day during our stay and the kitchen staff performed a herculean but fun effort to keep the restaurant running with grills on the lawn. We would recommend this hotel to anyone. The only caveat would be that summer weekend prices tend to be about double, but that's true of the area in general.

We had a very nice few days here. Location is good although parking the car can be a little difficult due to limited spaces in the car park. Room was lovely, clean and well equipped. The complimentary flapjacks also very good! Food was excellent and the staff attentive and very helpful. They did add someone else's food an wine bill to our invoice in error, so make sure you check your invoice on departure. All in all, an excellent stay.

Following a visit to the Highgrove Gardens we neede an overnight billet before returning home. The Close was the most perfect place. Whilst it initially took a while to find the car park after that everything just got better. Staff were so friendly and helpful, the room, large and delightful. Before dinner a short stroll down the High Street of Tetbury showed what a wonderful place we were staying in. There really is no negative to our visit. Eeven the bill was acceptable!

A great romantic break in a lovely Cotswold town. The hotel was excellent. Staff were very friendly and welcoming. We were upgraded to the Jubilee room, which proved to be a well-appointed and stylish en-suite room with a king-size bed and seperate lounge area. High standards of cleanliness, and a very comfortable bed. We had both breakfast and evening meal, both of which were excellent. There was an extensive breakfast buffet, with many locally-sourced items.
