Pros:

Everything was good my only suggestion would be to charge a little more for breakfast and include all options rather than add on little extras like cover charge, juice, supplement for Full English. It's just not elegant in such a smart hotel.

Pros:

The communal areas looked tired but room was lovely and very clean. Very comfortable but very confused by the £2 “cover charge” at breakfast. What for? Left a bad taste. Shame.

Pros:

Room was a delight. Stunning view. Very welcoming and extremely comfortable and clean.
Value for money. Only thing I’d say is drink prices can be a little expensive. Small tonic £5. Other than that was exceptional.

Pros:

Ok, so there was an issue with the room when arrived but after speaking with the hotel manager this was very quickly resolved whilst we enjoyed a complimentary drink and took ourselves on a quick tour of the stunning Rudloe Arms and grounds. The main building and its decor is fantastic and worth a trip just to see it.

Later that evening, we had a dinner reservation where we were greeted warmly by a really attentive restaurant crew. The food was perfectly cooked (potted pig, chicken pate to start; for mains duck and steak and chocolate mousse for dessert) with sides.

Breakfast was equally as good!

Secure parking and easy to find.

We'll definitely be returning.

Poor poor service.
Pros:

Fundamentally, the hotel is woefully understaffed and operationally poor. The attitude of the staff is to say "no" without even checking (as evidenced three times). Staff attitudes, bar the lovely receptionist are curt and bordering on rude. Lovely place visually, but the walls and carpets are in dire need of a make over in the Coach House. Rooms are generally very nice and themed well. Additional charges are everywhere - so beware. Are there better places to stay - yes.

Quirky hotel
Pros:

Lovely room but unfortunately lighting very bad and no daylight as window covered by Virginia creeper. Receptionist on check in very vague and had no idea of what was covered in my original booking - had to show email confirmation so that the offers paid for could actually be had.

Pros:

Very expensive for what it was. Meals over priced, wasn't in the main hotel so needed to walk over for dinner/breakfast that was meant to be included but wasn't. Staff were very helpful and polite

Stay at the Rudloe Arms, nr bath
Pros:

A nice looking very stylish 17th century building with an annex and shepherd's huts in the grounds...which is really nice, the art deco throughout the hotel is really inspiring with a warm glow of lovely vibes...unfortunately all that was overshadowed by extra surcharges and a compulsive need to extract as much of the clients money as possible...I paid my bar bill before going to my room that night. The morning of checkout I showed the manager the receipt for my bar bill and she said thet it would be sorted out when the bar staff was back on shift that day...that never happened and I am now chasing the unnecessary extra cash taken from my bank account. Over a hundred pounds to be exact. It has left a very nasty taste in my mouth...I would not recommend this hotel.

Great experience - added two more nights!!
Pros:

Food great and great value - inc Breakfast and Dinner. But would have liked some lighter option alternatives - fruit or sea bass or salmon or omelette salad - due to advanced age!! Sorry! I had dined at Mr. White’s new Balham Restaurant back in the day! Room and Shower Room lovely and spacious. Parking easy. Bed and sleep good. Might have appreciated a bit of help with case given age! Staff really friendly and helpful. Decor and collection display of artifacts amazing and just my style!! Grounds might be a bit too trendily dishevelled but it appealed to me. Location brilliant for Bath, Cotswolds, innumerable “NT and other properties and visiting old friends still living in Cotswolds. Maybe a bit more info and recommendations on special and not so well known places to visit?

Great place, unique rooms and well worth the treat
Pros:

I stayed on a Dinner BnB rate which was great value for money. My second stay here and it won't be my last. Rooms are just fantastic, as was the evening dinner :-) Long gravel driveway which was the only down side as you could hear folk leaving in the morning early.
But apart from that 10/10 A star from me

Spectacular!
Pros:

Absolutely spectacular stay at The Rudloe.
The service was outstanding as was the room. They made us feel like royalty but at the same time we felt like we were staying with friends.
The food was amazing as you would expect and we cannot wait to stay again!

Terrible approach to customers
Pros:

Terrible customer service. No water but they denied it. Charge extra for ‘free breakfast’ and don’t disclose.
My advice is stay away

Pros:

The property was lovely. A wonderful building in a beautiful setting. The included meals were a real treat and the food was delicious, however the servive was terrible. Check in was done online ahead of time but I recieved little information about the lack of recption and when I was looking for someone to help at 1800 when I arrived, the staff in the restaurant seemed annoyed I didn't know how their hotel ran. Meal service was poor too, having finished my starter course before my drink was served and having to chase and ask numerous times to receive it and to order the next courses etc.
