Really great stay at the Close Hotel. Large, comfy bed (we were in the Gallery room) and bath filled up really quickly. The hotel accommodated an early check in and late check out for us (£20 each). The garden at the rear of the hotel is really cute and doesn’t look as though it would be in the centre of room. Good food though service a little slow in the restaurant. Quite expensive restaurant bill.

Hi , Beautiful building in a beautiful small Cotswolds town . We really enjoyed our stay here ! So don’t get me wrong . Very central to Tetbury and with enough good shops , bars , restaurants and pubs nearby . Lovely staff , gorgeous rear garden , big and well cleaned rooms and good breakfasts . Free parking is also a big plus . Great bar and front lounge area . Only SMALL negatives were ; No full length mirror in room . No fridge in room . Only a half length wardrobe. No safe in room . ( unless we missed it ? ) Not an easy issue to deal with in an historic building but poor sound insulation between rooms , particularly a room above yours ( our room could easily have absorbed another four inches of sound insulation on the ceiling and another layer of carpet underlay in the room above would have helped . Toilet refilling noise also needs reducing . I really do feel for the owners on all of these minor points being in such a stunning building as otherwise it is gorgeous , I only make comments in order to help make the small improvements that would make an establishment more exceptional but there was a slight and fluctuating odour of what I took as ‘ bins ‘ over our three day stay to the rear of the hotel . It’s odd as when I went out to the bin shed I could not smell anything so , possibly from a neighbouring property ?but may be depending on the direction of the wind but did not disappear over three days so definitely needs experiencing and eradicating . Thank you

I always check the hygiene and condition of the duvet under its cover. Whilst it looked averagely clean it was in holes in places and the type of duvet you can buy very cheap via retailers. New duvets are not that expensive and for the room rate I would have expected better. Also it was a winter weight duvet in June?! So I slept poorly and hot. I also check the condition of the mattress. Even though there was a topper, the mattress below this had many stains and looked really old. Again a new mattress is not that expensive and if the exisiting one is aged and stained it should be replaced. The sheets were clean though and I did not check the pillows!! The TV had no picture on arrival but was resolved. Based on this I would not stay again. We were in the Tudor room.

Our second stay here…we chose a large deluxe room, that was huge, with a gorgeous bathroom. I love this hotel, its quirky layout, the history, location…and now, also its chef….food was to die for, quality ingredients, beautifully cooked and presented. Drinks are on the expensive side, but there is a store across the road that sells wine. Parking can be tight, but in our 4 night stay, we were always able to snag one.

Lovely 16th cent. building in Tetbury town centre
I had a room under the eaves which can be quite hazardous. Easy to bang one's head in the night. But managed to avoid that. Otherwise, this is a grand old lady of Tetbury which is beginning to show some imperfections here and there. Some stains on the carpet, some cracks in skirting board junctions. The staff were excellent and the food was good if pricey.
