Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
Ellenborough Park is widely praised for its beautiful, historic building, stunning views, and gorgeous outdoor spaces, including a heated pool maintained around 32 degrees, allowing for comfortable swimming even in colder weather. The spacious and luxurious rooms often feature amazing bathrooms with underfloor heating and a roll-top bath, ensuring a relaxing stay. While the hotel is generally well-regarded, a few guests have noted that the walk to rooms in outbuildings can be a bit of a distance from the main restaurant, and the air conditioning in some rooms may not be effective enough. Guests love the proximity to Cheltenham Racecourse.

Very nice stay with excellent service!

I found the hotel to be beautiful with a rich history. Every staff member was amazing and helpful. Breakfasts were delicious and satisfying. I had one dinner at the hotel and the food presentation was excellent.
I experienced a delay in housekeeping service. My room was not serviced until 3pm despite a request, yet I understand that such things sometimes occur in busy environments.

ineffective air conditioninglimited minibar
The air conditioning was not effective at all. The room temperature remained uncomfortably warm throughout my stay. I reported it, but maintenance did not resolve the issue. The minibar selection was quite limited and lacked variety. I expected more options considering the hotel's supposed caliber. There was no sparkling water.

Wonderful Stay at a Historic Hotel

beautiful groundsadjustable air conditioningheated pool
I found the grounds very beautiful and perfect for long walks. The buildings blend well with the natural environment. My room had both central heating and air conditioning, which I could adjust to keep the temperature perfect. The outdoor heated pool was good. I enjoyed swimming even when it was cold outside, because the water was about 32 degrees.
My room was in an outbuilding. It was a bit of a walk from the main restaurant, but this was not too much trouble.
