Find Family-Friendly Hotels in Bridstow

"We booked a room with a patio, knowing the weather was going to be good, so it was lovely to be able to sit outside and look at the beautiful scenery. It was midweek during the Easter school break but the spa facilities were quiet which was nice and we swam and sunbathed 2 days in a row. Restaurant was good including breakfast and dinner. Staff all lovely. "

"We stayed as a small family during the Easter holidays, mainly to use the pool and spa facilities, with the hotel’s proximity to Gloucester Docks (around 2.5 km) also a key reason for booking. Overall, the experience was mixed. On arrival, our room had issues—most notably the shower. The bath–shower mixer tap diverter didn’t work, and water pressure was extremely poor, to the point even a bath was just a trickle. At £120 midweek (without breakfast), this didn’t feel good overall value. That said, the sole reception staff member was excellent. After a couple of prompts, and while clearly managing the desk alone, he moved us to a suite around 9pm, resolving the issue before bedtime. He also explained the water system is quite old, which may account for the pressure. The pool and spa were clean and functional—the sauna and steam room were up to temperature, and the gym well equipped—but overall felt dated and didn’t match expectations set by the price and photos. We didn’t use the restaurant/bar on the evening or for breakfast- there were no evident menus beyond an A4 printout, and pricing felt high; it was empty whenever we walked past. More generally, the hotel doesn’t match the polished Expedia photos. It looked dated, and even after the room change, the amenities and bedding were below expectations, particularly compared to Premier Inn. In summary, excellent staff, but the property and value for money unfortunately fell short"

"Beautiful building, room immaculate but a bit tired in places."

"Stay was as expected for that price, average. Receptionist was great, embarrassed by having to ask for £5 for parking. The parking charge was unexpected and unwelcome, they had plenty of time to warn us but didn't bother."
