We visited the Bell Hotel entirely on spec and were pleasantly surprised. Following the maxim 'never go into an empty restaurant/cafe/pub/hairdressers' we wandered around Tewkesbury looking for somewhere with a bit of life. The Bell seemed to resolve our problem; there were quite a few diners already in residence. A quick shufty at the menu showed they did a variety... more

Stayed at The Bell for a long weekend with my partner and we both thought it was excellent. The staff were cheerful and helpful throughout our stay in spite of obviously working long hours. The food was reasonably priced and delicious. We had planned to eat out in the evenings but after trying the restaurant once decided we need go... more

We stayed at the Bell in Tewkesbury for two nights on a bed and breakfast basis, booked via the Tesco Clubcard scheme, at the beginning of October. The hotel is a lovely old place with plenty of atmosphere; it feels like a ‘pub with rooms’ rather than a hotel. Overall we had a very enjoyable stay that represents good value... more

We obviously arrived on the receptionists day off and the lad in her place was trying to sort something out on the computer and completely ignored us.We walked around the pub for a while and went back and he still ignored us. When he finally saw to us he proved to be friendly but I had felt like walking out.Our... more

I would put this hotel's decor and ambience on a par with Shearings hotels, but the food is better and for self-drive you can choose your length of stay and dates. I tried to book on the hotel's web site, but for some glitch was unable to do so. I then booked through e bookers under their "best price guarantee"... more

Went for romantic evening meal on friday. Could not fault the service. Could not fault the hotel!!!! PS The hotel was booked to capacity and very friendly. Note this is Feb 27th. Not holiday time, or even Easter I rest my case more

We stayed at The Bell for a weekend away and could not fault it. Yes, the decor was a little tired and the bedroom and bathroom could have done with a lick of paint (we stayed in the annexe, so I don't know what the main building was like), but it was clean and comfortable. The staff were extremely friendly... more

My husband and I got back today from a very good hotel experience. We needed to stay in Tewkesbury within walking distance of my daughter. The Bell fitted the criteria but having read reviews on this site I was reluctant to risk it! Luckily I decided to give it a go - whichever hotel the reviewers who slated it visited... more

We have just returned from a 3 night break at this hotel. I must admit to some feelings of trepidation after reading the reviews posted on this site, however I needn't have worried. We booked this break via tesco clubcard deals and it wasn't our first choice of hotel as it was for my birthday we also requested flowers and... more
