Would not recommend.

The hotel appeared dirty and had an odd smell. The room itself was not very nice. The windows were saturated with condensation which made the windowsill soaking wet which caused a damp environment. The bed was extremely uncomfortable and had a huge dip on one side. Also having a double room the beds pushed together was uncomfortable. The room was not clean, dirt on the bathroom floor and sink. The room was full of dust and grime.

This is a property I have recurrently stayed at over the years when visiting Cheltenham. The staff are friendly and accommodating; the rooms are remarkably spacious (even if not impeccably clean due to lack of daily housekeeping since Covid); and the hotel location is excellent -- walking distance from the town center, the town hall, the Everyman's theatre, and the pubs/restaurants. For travelers who are not overly fussy, this will be a comfortable hotel to stay at. If staying longer than a couple of days, you can request a room clean and a change of linen. Also, staff at reception usually hand out clean towels and other toiletries as needed. I hope this helps!

The Citrus hotel is really well located for the centre of Cheltenham. The service we received was good. When we arrived at the hotel we checked in easily and were located on the 4th floor which was no problem at all. When we entered the room we found it to be freezing cold. We could not see out of the window due to it being soaking wet with puddles of water on the window sill. There was a heater in the room that had not been switched on but was working. The spotlight above the television was hanging out of the ceiling and we also found that the sink in the bathroom did not drain away. The beds were comfortable and we experienced a good nights sleep with very little noise. On leaving the property there was a broken tile on the steps which I slipped on twice. There was a cone when we arrived to highlight where not to step but this was often either not in the right place or missing completely. The breakfast area had tables and chairs that were all plastic and felt a bit like a canteen but the breakfast itself was perfectly adequate.

Good hotel close to all amenities. Room comfy, great shower 😊 only issues curtains don’t cover length of windows, parking is first come, first served! And if you’ve got a room roadside it’s noisy! I did ask for a quiet room, away from the road.

Very good value and brilliant location

Citrus is a budget hotel and as such offers exceedingly good value for money considering its position slap bang in the middle of Cheltenham. The room was clean, warm, the bed comfortable with tea-making, large TV and room safe. The self serve continental breakfast was just £5 for both of us but very comprehensive. Car parking was secure at an extra £10 for 24 hours. The only thing that let it down was the shower which in our room (210) was virtually unusable as flow was poor and very slippery with no grab handles. However the position on Wellington Street is brilliant just 2-400 metres from the High Street and the Promenade.

Convenient and cheap, but noisy

Clean room and comfortable bed, right in the middle of town. On street parking and friendly staff. Windows, however, are paper thin so you can hear everything going on in the street, which isnt great at 2am.
