Jennifer C. Friends - 7/8/2026 Confirmed reviews ALL

Dear Jennifer, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback following your recent stay with us. We're pleased to hear that you found your room spacious, clean, and comfortable, and that our bar team made a positive impression with their helpful service. We're sorry that your stay was affected by the exceptionally hot weather. As a historic building, not all of our bedrooms are equipped with air conditioning, although we do provide fans to help make our guests as comfortable as possible during warmer periods. We also sincerely apologise that we were unable to accommodate you in the restaurant on either evening. We appreciate how disappointing and inconvenient this must have been, particularly during a business trip. While we do offer dining in our lounge when the restaurant is fully booked, we understand that this is not the same experience and regret that it did not meet your expectations. Your comments have been shared with the management team as we continually review how we can improve the guest experience, particularly during busy periods. Thank you again for your honest feedback, and although we're sorry to hear you wouldn't choose to stay with us again, we do appreciate you giving us the opportunity to host you. Kind regards, Chelsea Pearce Mercure Gloucester Bowden Hall Hotel
