Just got back from an excellent short break organized by friends. We went as two couples on a TravelZoo deal. The hotel was clean, the room was large, the bed huge. We ate in the restaurarnt on Saturday night, and had a very good meal indeed. The wine was reasonably priced - about 16 - 17 quid for a bottle... More

Just back from our 2nd stay at the Thistle Hotel courtesy of a Great Little Breaks offer. I can't praise this hotel highly enough. The staff are excellent, uniformly courteous and friendly. The rooms are a nice size and very well cleaned daily. The breakfast buffet is the best I've ever had in a UK hotel, with a chef cooking... More

We booked two rooms to train 20 staff members on new we applications - which obviously mean we needed wifi. It was bad! 2hrs30min to download a 85MB file, which I needed to do on every machine but have up. I set up users Laptops manually, but then most could not get online to do any training. In the end...

Stayed here with a Great Little Breaks deal, 2 nights with dinner on second night. Nice staff, great food and cocktails. Added bonus of a Jacuzzi and pool. Ideal location near the roundabout into Cheltenham. Would definitely stay again.

The hotel is accessed via the second exit of the roundabout on the A40 that heads into central Cheltenham, about a mile's ride from junction 11 on the M5.
