Leonardo Hotel Cheltenham

Leonardo Hotel Cheltenham

8/10 Good
"Nice hotel. Clean and largely well maintained. It's a distance from the town centre if that's important to you, but on a frequent bus route and a good cycle network. Small frustrations are the charge for parking (but the cost of the hotel itself was reasonable) and having to book the pool etc, which is only in 30 minute slots, which put us off a bit."
