Good stay in comfortable room

Nice welcome and upstairs had a good view. Bed was extremely comfortable and we slept well. Sound proofing between rooms seemed non-existent but this didn't interfere with our sleep. Very generous servings for the meal we had in the evening and a great complimentary breakfast :)

Clean and pleasant place to stay

Great place to stay on a budget (certainly over the last month that I’ve stayed there due to work. Friendly staff. Very clean room and bathroom. Plenty of parking with EV charging available. Golf club for food, drinks and extra sport on TV in the bar. Short walk into Coleford.

It was a nice room for what I needed but it was a little noisy. You could hear door banging and unfortunately in the room I was in the people above moving around and the water pipes made a noise too. When myself or someone else (don't know who) used the cold water be it by the tap or flushing the pipes would vibrate with a droning sound.

We had a great stay and would recommend

We had a wonderful stay at Bells and would stay there again. The only negative comment we have about the hotel is that the walls are very thin and you can hear people walking in the corridor and talking in the adjoining rooms like they are sat next to you. Which when it’s a rowdy bunch of dudes on a golfing weekend means no sleep.
