Martin P. A. Friends - Confirmed reviews ALL

Dear Martin, Thank you so much for choosing the Mercure Gloucester Bowden Hall Hotel for your recent visit to the area. We are thrilled to hear that your very first stay with us was such a wonderful find! It is fantastic to know that you appreciated the character, charm, and unique individuality of our older-style property rather than a standard, uniform hotel layout. We take great pride in blending our historic heritage with a comfortable atmosphere, and we are glad it provided a relaxing and reasonably priced base for your monthly trips to Gloucester. Hearing that our team made a great impression from check-in to the restaurant truly means a lot to us. Please accept our sincere apologies for the delay you experienced trying to find service at the bar around 6:00 PM. We completely understand how frustrating that must have been. Your practical suggestion about adding a call bell at the bar counter is excellent, and we will pass this suggestion directly along to our food and beverage management team to help us improve our guest experience. We hope to welcome you back to the hotel when you are next travelling in the area. Kind regards Chelsea Pearce Mercure Gloucester Bowden Hall Hotel

We had a nice overnight stay. We found the staff extremely helpful. We had a room upgrade which was nice. The bed was comfortable and the room was very spacious. We had a pre-booked meal in the evening with friends. There were 13 of us. The food was good and breakfast the following morning was very good. We had intended to have a sandwich for lunch when we arrived but decided against it when we saw the price. Overall it was a nice overnight stay.

All the staff were very polite & helpful. The bed in our room was very comfortable. However, at tree blocked any light coming from the window which was disappointing.

D. Richard, Thank you for taking the time to share your review following your recent stay. I am very glad to hear that you found your bed comfortable and that our team made a positive impression with their polite and helpful service. It is also wonderful that you thoroughly enjoyed our breakfast.However, I am sorry to hear that the discounted three-course meal fell short of your expectations and that the tree outside your window blocked the natural light. We want every meal we serve to be exceptional, regardless of any promotion, so I have passed your dining feedback to our head chef to review the quality of that specific menu. Additionally, I have noted your comment about the window view, and our maintenance team will look into pruning the foliage to improve the light levels in that room. We appreciate your balanced feedback, as it helps us continue to improve our guest experience. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future for a much brighter and more consistent stay all around. Kind regards Chelsea Pearce Mercure Gloucester Bowden Hall Hotel

Carson B. Business - Confirmed reviews ALL

This was booked by my employers and I viewed the hotel onling and considered booking for myself and my partner in January. Having stayed, I won't be back.

Dear Carson, Thank you for sharing your feedback following your recent stay. I am deeply concerned to read about your experience, particularly regarding the breakfast service. The safety and well-being of our guests is our absolute highest priority. Food safety is something we take incredibly seriously, and your comment regarding the undercooked sausages is deeply concerning. I have immediately shared this feedback with our head chef and kitchen management team to initiate an urgent review of our cooking and temperature logging procedures I also sincerely apologize that your ground-floor room lacked privacy due to the nearby outdoor seating, and that the room temperature and dated decor fell short of your expectations. It is incredibly disappointing to learn that this experience has caused you to reconsider your plans to visit us with your partner in January. Thank you again for leaving a review. We do hope that we can welcome you back in the near future. Kind regards Chelsea Pearce Mercure Gloucester Bowden Hall Hotel

Good breakfast, other food ordered was decidedly below average, with stale salad, and overcooked fish/meat.

Dear Karen, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. I am pleased to hear that you enjoyed our nice location and found our staff to be friendly and helpful, as well as enjoying a good breakfast. However, I am very sorry to learn that the other meals you ordered fell decidedly below average. Serving overcooked fish and meat, along with a stale salad, is completely unacceptable and does not reflect the high culinary standards we aim for. I have shared your comments directly with our head chef and kitchen team so we can address these issues immediately and ensure better quality control across all our menus. We appreciate your honest feedback, as it helps us improve. We hope you will consider giving us another opportunity in the future to provide you with a much better dining experience all around.

lovely listed building but no lift. food good but basic no specials board, staff good but need guidence ,some chairs shabby ,clean rooms ,difficulty to find with sat nav narrow roads. dining room too dark .

Dear Tina and R., Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We are pleased to hear that you enjoyed our lovely listed building, clean rooms, and the service from our good staff. As a historically protected listed building, we unfortunately face strict architectural limitations, which is why we are unable to install a lift. We appreciate your feedback regarding the dining room lighting, the shabby chairs, and the need for more staff guidance. We also note your comments on the menu and will look into adding more variety, such as specials, in the future.Lastly, because our charming location features narrow, historic roads, sat-navs can occasionally be tricky. Thank you again for helping us improve, and we hope to welcome you back for a better experience. Kind regards Chelsea Pearce Mercure Gloucester Bowden Hall Hotel

Carol &. J. C. Families - Confirmed reviews ALL

We held our 50th wedding anniversary here on Saturday. The table in The Congress room was well set out for the occasion. Caitlin was very friendly and especially good at keeping us supplied with tea, coffee and cake during the afternoon. In the evening we were served the dinners that we had pre ordered in a timely manner. There was one hiccup when my aunt had to wait for her dinner to arrive. The staff were good at talking our drinks orders and keeping those topped up. I think there was an issue with the lack of a lift and the toilet being on a different floor. The room numbers were quite confusing, but I enjoyed the exercise.

Dear Carol and J., Thank you so much for choosing our hotel to celebrate such an incredible milestone! We are thrilled to hear that your 50th wedding anniversary celebration on Saturday was a success and that The Congress room was beautifully set up for your special day. We will be sure to pass along your wonderful compliments to Caitlin—she will be delighted to know her friendly service and attentiveness kept everyone happy with tea, coffee, and cake. We are also glad our evening team kept the drinks flowing and served your pre-ordered dinners smoothly. Please accept our sincere apologies for the delay with your aunt’s dinner. We always aim for everyone to be served together, and we appreciate your patience while we sorted that out. Thank you also for your constructive feedback regarding our layout, room numbering, and restroom locations. Because we operate in a unique building layout, we know it can be a bit of a maze, but we are glad you kept a great sense of humor about the exercise! Congratulations again to you both, and we hope to welcome your family back for future milestones. Kind regards Chelsea Pearce Mercure Gloucester Bowden Hall Hotel

It can be noisy with the ari con units outside, so I always bring ear plugs. The carpet has a patch that is amost a hole, this has been there for a few years now, its become a bit of a joke now ...........!

Dear Kevin and m., Thank you so much for being a loyal return visitor and for highlighting our amazing, attentive, and friendly staff! We are glad we can accommodate your husband with our accessible room, but we appreciate your honesty regarding the noise from the outdoor air conditioning units and the worn carpet. While we love that the carpet patch has become a bit of a running joke, we agree it is time for a punchline! Your feedback about the noise level and the needed floor repairs has been passed straight to our maintenance and room refurbishment teams so we can look into. We truly value your loyalty and look forward to welcoming you back for a much more comfortable stay next time! Kind regards Chelsea Pearce Mercure Gloucester Bowden Hall Hotel
