The condition of the accommodation is disappointing as the carpet is incredibly dirty could do with replacing for darker colour, our window was broken as was the tap and the iron. No central heating in room so a fan provided but you can’t keep this on at night so was quite cold. Bathroom very poor layout not enough space to get ready privately so only go with partner or close friend. Extractor not working.
The location and surroundings nice and restaurant nice and breakfast really good but takes a very long time to come up to 45mins and it was only us. We spent a lot here over the weekend asked for a refund just on poor accommodation but was declined.

To be described as luxury and to be charged over £100 for a the night was poor. There was no one to meet and greet, no reception etc. Not an issue in its own right but there wasn't enough toilet roll for the stay! No plug in the basin or the bath. The room was cold and despite turning the thermostat up it made no difference. Food facilities were closed. I don't complain but this was overpriced for the experience. The towels were also very small! Tap handle was missing as well.

Public areas grubby, underwhelming reception at check in. Car park not lit and in dark wooded area (no tarmac). Public area carpets filthy, room carpets much the same and room cleaned to minimal standard, door very insecure, window latch falling off, sink tap handle missing, shower cold. Walls paper thin and a lot of banging drum and bass from another room (not hotels fault just a complete moron).Terrible pillows. Restaurant expensive and average, staff didn't really want to be there. Could be a lovely place if some time and money was put into it

Quirky, quiet place to stay between the river and the canal. Lovely, comfy room and quiet. The restaurant is open Weds onwards. There is a Toby Carvery a few minutes down the road but not dog friendly. Gloucester centre about 10 mins drive away. Good stop on the way to Wales.

A beautiful location just outside the busy city of Gloucester which gave us lots of restaurant options and a base to explore the Cotswolds

Rooms and restaurant were ideal for our overnight stop and proved to be in lovely condition in a pleasant location beside the river and canal basin.

Nice area alongside canal for dog walks

A little out of the way along a canal with good walking tracks. Excellent staff and dining room.
Room very comfortable with dual aspect windows so good flow through breeze.

The stay at The Mooring House was very comfortable. I hadnt realised they didnt do breakfast but that wasnt a problem for us. The check in was simple and tho we arrived very early they put our bag in our room and sent us a text once it was ready.

Dirty filthy and uncared for . Nests of bugs in curtains, broken bath , disgusting carpets . This used to be lively but will never stay again
3.0
Our check in was appalling. There was a private function which we did not know about. Not only was our room directly above it, but we were not allowed to use the bar or restaurant facilities on arrival. Having travelled for a few hours, we were even denied taking a drink from the bar to our room. Thank goodness for Deliveroo. Unimpressed!!
2.0
The stay was nice. The room had lots of good features like a jacuzzi bath and a large fridge. However the room was a lot more run-down than was shown in the pictures. We wouldn't have minded this but it was one of the more expensive hotels in the area and it just seems like it wasn't being well looked after and the quality wasn't there for the money.

No staff on site early in the week. Booking said entry code would be sent 24 hours in advance, but after leaving messages, code arrived by text message 45 mins before check-in time and by email just after midnight. Rather stressful.
Assuming you can get in the building, the room was fine.
5.0
Extremely helpful and accommodating staff. Dealt with dietary issues without batting an eye. Food was delicious. Clean private rooms.
Easy to find and quick to get anywhere.

Lovely place, very practical and charming rooms. However if you check in on one of the unmanned days (a bad idea in itself), watch out. The duty team left us with no access code, no way to check in, we spent an hour outside calling them and also Hotels.com at the end of a long journey. Eventually another guest who had their direct number managed to raise them for us and we were let in. But our room had no electricity/lights - presume a fuse had gone. But of curse no staff onsite to fix it. So we were sent wandering about till we found another one available. By which time it was too late for us to get a meal nearby. Then absolutely no apology and no refund. Such a shame about the duty staff, as the building is charming convenient and very smartly done. But you can't pay for accommodation and then find you can't access it.

The staff are friendly and helpful, the room was bright and airy, with a very comfortable bed and good facilities. The breakfast was very filling and great value.

Very much enjoyed my stay, I will be booking again when I’m in the area

Lovely place to stay, nice walk or £7.00 taxi ride to docks. Room a bit cold, until fan heater warmed it up. Bath needs a mat as a high step into shower. Great meal and friendly staff. Would certainly stay again
2.0
Nice room, great style in the bar/restaurant. Good breakfast available. Two improvements could be made: as the room had no central heating, should have a quiet convector heater not the small, noisy fan heater provided;
The cups for coffee are packed with the milk, sachets, sugar, spoons - but all those have to come out to use the cup. That is plain annoying - get a separate container.

The hotel itself was amazing,i was looking forward to a relaxing evening.i had just finished nights at the hospital and was looking forward to a relaxing siak in the bath that had jets so would have been great...if it had worked !!!!
I know this may sound petty but it was my only night i had time to relax and i choose this property because of this......
Apart from this the room was amazing.

Overall would recommend for a short stay. Clean and comfortable. Communication before arrival could of be better as we tried to call to confirm booking no answer on days when they where opened.
The room was pleasant but too warm as there was no obvious way to turn the underfloor heating down

Amazing tucked away little gem! Room was brilliant and lovely decor. Amazing waterfront views. Really friendly and helpful staff, not sure we could have asked for more. Will 100% stay here again.

stayed for business, a bit further out of the center of Gloucester than it looked, £7-£8 in a taxi each way.
Bar/Restaurant/Staff closed/not onsite Monday/Tuesday which is one of the days I stayed, was disappointed with this as it would have been easier to get a taxi in and out, plus have a drink in the bar before and after going out for a meal or even stayed in for a meal

We had a lovely stay with our Sproodle. Danielle and the team were very welcoming. The room was very clean and a good size with Kingsize bed, 2 seater sofa, desk and wardrobe. The En-suite also had a bath with power shower. The on-site restaurant the lock keepers was fantastic, great food and service. Would definitely stay again.

The hotel is conveniently placed for the City Centre, a nice country walk. However, it was let down by an inability to fully cater for its guests. I was forced to eat elsewhere on Sat evening after being told there was no tables available. I returned to the hotel at approx 7:45 and there appeared to be a few empty tables. Nonetheless, the hotel was well kept and the staff were nice.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Room was very spacious and clean, with added bonus of mini fridge with complimentary bottles of water and fresh milk. Food in the bistro was excellent and at a good price. Location is nice and quiet but short distance to city centre.

Great quality hotel unfortunately the room was specifically booked because it had a jacuzzi bath which didn’t work. As we only had a 1 night stay no chance to correct the problem and reported it as we checked out. No offer to make amends eg. Free coffee, breakfast or partial refund. Disappointed

Excellent location and lovely accommodation but the room was a little too warm even with window open and no way to adjust heating. Food ok depending on order, my wife’s was nice, mine not so much. Dog friendly and lovely walks on doorstep as well as excellent public transport links a couple of minutes walk away. Would definitely recommend and stay again.

Staff were friendly and helpful. Room was tidy and presentable but not very sound proof. Heard a lot of the other guests and the floor above walking around in the morning.
Decent for a one night stay but wouldn’t stay again.
Quick drive to centre so convenient for stay, probably wouldn’t walk it due to busy roads.
