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.

Overnight stop
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.

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!!

Nice but scruffy
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.

Late arrival of entry code
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.

Amateur hour with terrible duty staff
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.
