Our room was "musty dinginess" being sold as "old world charm" (we even had cobwebs for that extra dose of authenticity). Property overall was fine, albeit a little underinvested perhaps, and the people were generally very nice, but overall the hotel was not remotely worth the money they are charging.

Beautiful inside and out

We’ve just arrived home from a one night stay and we’re very impressed with this hotel. This is a quintessential British old fashioned luxury hotel. The rooms are all individual and ours was very large with a wonderful view of Cheltenham racecourse. The oak panelled dining room, gave a feeling of grandeur without being stuffy and the food and serving staff were excellent both at dinner and breakfast. The hotel grounds are magnificent and we made use of the heated outdoor pool and spa, which was clean and not too busy. Overall we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and wish now we had booked for longer.

Wonderful hotel and lovely location. Unfortunately I took ill on the day we were scheduled to stay and the hotel couldn’t confirm we could reschedule without loosing our money so we went anyway. We therefore didn’t enjoy our stay and barely ate anything so will have to return.

Manor house in the Cotswalds.

Great choice to stay for exploring the Cotswalds. It’s a former manor house converted to an elegant hotel and spa though there are some new rooms outside the main house. There is a lovely breakfast included. There are 2 restaurants on property but they have the same menu. Other food options are 10-15 minutes away. Our room was good sized with huge bathroom but rooms in the main house are varied from smaller to larger than ours. Staff was attentive. Fun to talk to other guests who come from near and far.

Top notch service at a historic property

Ellenborough Park is a gorgeous property filled with rich history. Definitely pick up a historic pamphlet written by Jonathon and ask him for a tour. The property is mesmerizing. The staff is wonderful- especially Veronica the guest manager. We adored our waiter, One who went out of his way to make sure the entire family had a lovely meal each night. The food is high quality and the dining room is gorgeous. The rooms could definitely use a little updating though, particularly with some of the furniture pieces and the shower area. All in all we had a fantastic stay and would return in a heartbeat!

TLDR. Picturesque stately home, with warm, friendly service with quintessential British charm. If you're looking for a Cotswolds hotel, without the trappings of influencers (SoHo Farmhouse), or breaking the bank (Manor Estelle), this is for you. It's Cotswolds without any of the attitude you'll get at other hotels, with warm, welcoming service. There are lovely touches like the boot and jacket lending service, the dog 'spa' and the main room with its Tudor-style furnishings. This is a place for folks going outdoors, or families. The spa and pool are small, so it's less the 'spend the day at the hotel' property but a place to really go explore the countryside. The rooms are fairly modern but nothing remarkable. This is more historical, cozy than luxe. Likewise the service is warm, friendly but does not have the polish of a Belmond or top-calibre hotel but at the price-point is still very solid. Breakfast if it's an option to include is worth it, with a generous spread. You'd be hard-pressed to find anything as good nearby.

Beautiful building in a beautiful location. Let down by customer service and things like a broken shower head in the room and jets in the spa hot tub not working. Customer servicewise, the receptionist couldnt crack a smile, our coffees were forgotten at breakfast two days in a row and when we thought we were getting some good customer service we got charged for it! (The restaurant heard us talking about it being our mini moon and brought over two glasses of champagne which werent requested by us but then they added them to our bill!)
