This is the Bear Hotel at Rodborough near Stroud where I will be spending a few nights a week in the latest job as the guy wearing panties over his trousers.
An interesting and quaint looking hotel, nice location, helpful staff but not the best place I have ever stayed.
The rooms are relatively small, the top floor rooms are chilly in winter with quite a breeze coming in the single pane windows. During the stay the 1st and 2nd floors were being painted which is never a pleasant smell.
Room 15 has the hotel flagpole next to it, so in high winds this is all you hear, a light over the sink mirror was non-existent so reception had to steal a bulb from the centre of the washroom until housekeeping would sort it out the next day. The main restaurant is a tad over priced (not that any prices are displayed on the menu). Put it this way £31 for 3 courses or £26 for two, yet the same two courses in the bar would cost about £22. Food service in the bar is very slow, and few of the tables/seats are conducive to eating a meal.
Would I stay again, afraid not, there are many improvements that are needed to this hotel but the only saving grace is the bar totty who’s mummy lumps defy gravity!
You wouldn’t go barer here.
