Pros:

Plenty of good advice about visiting the Cathedral and other places of interest, and on local restaurants. Free parking at the hotel which was a bonus.

Alles ok, aber wir würden Gloucester auf der nächsten Reise nicht mehr ansteuern.
Pros:

Innenstadt gut erreichbar. Familienzimmer mit getrennten Räumen.

Cons:

Schwierigkeiten hatten wir weniger mit dem Hotel als vielmehr mit der Umgebung. Mir war nicht klar, dass Gloucester eine Stadt ist, die in Teilen eher von Armut und Verfall gekennzeichnet ist. Im Bereich der Docklands war es nett und wir fühlten uns sicher. Bei Dunkelheit waren wir aber froh, mit einem Uber zurückzufahren.

Das Hotel ist einfach aber in Ordnung. Das Haus ist nicht mehr auf dem neuesten Stand, was aber im Preis reflektiert ist.

Convenient walking distance for Gloucester city centre (Cathedral and Docks).
Pros:

My room had a large comfortable bed. Large screen tv. Mini fridge and microwave with additional kitchen facilities available. Paid extra for breakfast which was very good. All in all a good stay in quite a busy hotel with lots of guests coming and going.

Cons:

The hotel is on a relatively busy main road into central Gloucester. Although there is double glazing first night Saturday I was aware of traffic noise into early hours. There are steep steps to top floor which may be issue for people with mobility issues although of course they could ask for ground floor accommodation

Pros:

La struttura è molto curata e la proprietaria molto gentile. La prima colazione abbastanza standard. Ottima la disponibilità di parcheggio privato videosorvegliato

Cons:

La stanza era la terzo piano, senza ascensore (ma è tipico in queste zone), con scale molto strette. Qualche difficoltà a salire con valigie un po' grandi e pesanti

Very handy, good location, comfortable.
Pros:

I liked the quirkiness of it and learnt that it was originally three houses and changed to a hotel. It was clean and comfortable. It has its own car park which was really useful and its location was perfect for our needs. I loved the little basket found outside the door with clean towels and top ups of tea and coffee. Great idea.

Cons:

Nothing. It was exceptionally hot when we stayed but there was a fan provided.

An excellent place to stay in Gloucester
Pros:

I can't recommend the Edward highly enough. An excellent place to stay in all respects: friendly and welcoming, well situated, comfortable plus a nice garden. The breakfasts are great, facilities are good and there is a really nice ambiance about the place.

Lovely original attractive and comfortable hotel within walking distance of the town centre
Pros:

This hotel has a lovely atmosphere, lots of photos and information about Gloucester, many stair cases linking different parts of the hotel. the rooms are functional and comfy with tea/coffee making equipment, fridge and microwave. There are also shared kitchens with everything you might need. Staff are super friendly and very helpful. There's a small garden for al fresco eating or chilling.

Too many stairs for me ;-(
