Put aside the restaurant problems we had a lovely stayin
Pros:

Steeped in history
Lovely setting
Rooms sympathetic to age of hotel

Cons:

The restaurant was cold😩
We had the evening meal at the grill
Good was very good no fault with that
The restaurant was in the great hall an amazing place but it was cold
It was noticeable more in the morning for breakfast - which came out very cold and uninviting from the kitchen
Cold plates 😩😩😩😩
Just remembered in the en-suite the blind at the window needs slinging
It was very mouldy and black
I think although the maids cleaned the rooms well
Someone needs to be regularly checking rooms for problems like this

Great hotel in a beautiful village and with excellent food.
Pros:

Beautiful old place with a lot of character. The restaurant quality is as it should be for this place.

Cons:

My room was an annex and the downstairs door opened straight onto the street so I felt a tiny bit insecure

Charming centerpiece of the Cotswolds in a historic inn.
Pros:

This is a wonderful historic property and well worth a stay. We loved the historic common areas with many sitting areas a corners to share a drink. Best breakfast on our entire journey. Broadway was our favorite town in the Cotswolds. The patio on a warm day is a highlight. The property is busy and bustling but the staff is wonderful.

Cons:

The rooms were a little dark, not a big problem. Everything else was top notch.
