Pros:

la posizione comoda, in centro città, si può raggiungere facilmente tutto a piedi. La struttura, antica, mi è piaciuta molto. Sotto c'era il pub e il personale è stato gentile, alla reception ci hanno tenuto il bagaglio più ingombrante. Alla camera si accedeva tramite un ballatoio antico, particolare. Il letto comodo, la colazione buona.

Cons:

Non c'è un parcheggio e noi avevamo la macchina e l'abbiamo dovuta lasciare in un parcheggio pubblico con orari di pagamento molto strani (ma in effetti non è colpa dell'hotel, bensì la cittadina si organizza così).

Lovely staff and location.
Pros:

The staff were very nice. The location was excellent and the room itself fit my needs. The rather old and crooked nature of the place actually made me like it more.

Cons:

It was a bit noisy at night but that can’t be helped on Saturday and Friday nights in the centre of town

Loved Gloucester and the New Inn is ideal for a base to explore from.
Pros:

Historic building and courtyard terracing was unique. Good location in Gloucester centre.

Cons:

No ventilation in the room and windows were locked shut - luckily the weather was not too hot but it could have been very uncomfortable if the weather was much hotter. Fan provided but was very noisy during the night.

Great hotel, great staff, great breakfast
Pros:

All was good, comfy, clean. The view of the next buildings roof was not pleasant but was the only setback in my whole stay. The breakfast was the best, everything cooked perfect and served quickly. Staff were excellent. The hotel itself was fascinating and full of history. Would stay again.

Cons:

The view from the room

Would have rated the New Inn as okay if the toilet had flushed
Pros:

Good location. Interesting old building, but with problems being used as a hotel in this day and age

Cons:

Toilet did not flush.
Advised to use Kings Walk car park, in which our car was broken into.
Did not stay the second night that we had booked and paid for because of the damage to our car and not knowing where we could park the car safely in Gloucester overnight
