Best stay away from home for ages. The bed was more comfortable than at home, or in any other hotel/bnb/guesthouse I've stayed in in recent times. So close to city centre, therefore really convenient. I highly recommend this hotel!

A beautiful shiny new hotel with well thought through design and such aesthetic decor. The staff were helpful and went out of their way to make sure we had a pleasant stay. The roof top bar was a definite plus, with fab views, it just made the weekend for me and my friend who had a long overdue catch up. So close to the station, an easy weekend away.

This is a beautiful (new) hotel in the centre of Gloucester really close to all the attractions and shops. The rooms are spacious and really comfortable; great beds, big fluffy towels and modern bathrooms. There are USB-B and USB-C charging points beside the bed which is great for international travellers. There is also a fridge, complimentary water, lots of beverages, a small bottle of real milk and a Nespresso machine. There is also a wardrobe with complimentary dressing gowns, clothes steamer and hairdryer. Definitely recommend to anyone

Very comfortable, with more individual design features than your average chain, and the Gloucester Indigo seemed very reasonably priced compared with some other cities. The staff are very helpful. We hadn't booked to include breakfast at £17.50 each per night, but found that paying at reception before 11pm the previous night got us breakfast for £15, while it would be £20 on the day. It was decent value at £15. Very convenient for rail and bus stations, and easily walkable to the cathedral and other places of interest. Check before booking that the museums etc will be open when you go.

A brand new but brilliant hotel. All the staff were friendly and very helpful, nothing was too much for them. Only a couple of minor issues, but all bar one were dealt with immediately, ( a tv not working in one of our rooms… but there were two in that room, so no big deal. Food and drinks were fantastic. Our waitress, for both nights, Megan, was an absolute star. ✨ We hope to return. 🙂

It's a new hotel. Already there are bulbs in the bedroom which have gone and not been replaced. Also, the hotel has a major problem with its geolocation on Apple Maps. It is not where it is shown on the map. This highly inconvenienced me and my wife. Needs to be updated.
