The Fleece at Cirencester

A very neat hotel, perfectly placed , 10/10

Great breakfast, the room is cozy , also the location is at the center, for self driving you need to park in the public car parking which is 3 mins walk away

Excellent venue to host our sisters hen do. George was amazing, very attentive and did his up most to keep us all topped up with drinks and food. Thank you very much The Fleece ❤️

An attractive smart boutique place to stay. Our room was large and comfortable, smartly decorated, and reached by quite a few stairs and a door that does not open fully due to the ceiling. The dormer windows have very thin material so no light reducing capabilities at all, which was not great. The shower water was quite warm even when set on "cold". I had issues with the power sockets not always working. The USB points are very useful. Breakfast was good although a bowl of diced fruit salad would be nice and expected for a place like this. Dinner was of a high quality with a friendly staff member, although there was an annoying issue with trying to charge to the room and manager was available.

We called into The Fleece twice whisky staying at the nearby Corinium Hotel with uni friends. On the first occasion it was late afternoon and so we sat in a window seat. On the seconds occasion it was early afternoon and so we sat on their seats outside to enjoy the sunshine and watch what was going on. I was particularly pleased to see that they had 1664 0% on draught and so I had that on both occasions. My wife went for Pinot Grigio with ice and a white Zinfandel. Well with a visit. Although we did not eat, the food looked good.

The staff we met on reception and on the dining room were smashing, polite & helpful, especially the staff at breakfast . Room number 4, a feature room was on the whole disappointing, to be fair when I asked for things they were provided eg very slippery shower floor so I requested a bath mat, no tissues in the room, I do not travel with my own box! Bathroom bin was replaced when I showed a photo of what seemed to be black paint all over it, the shower ceiling had peeling paint and the floor was stained and grout missing. A feature room is one of the most expensive rooms and lacked the 'little somethings'...cobweb on a lamp and bedside lamps hanging by their wire so they could not be directed so book reading at night was done with a main lights on. As I said, staff very nice but no identity badges so I did not know who I was talking to unless Iasked. Staying in another chain,Coaching Inn Group, the rooms do have little extras eg, digital radio and digital TV. The fire alarm went off at 6.30am 22nd, apparently by someone having a hot shower, so I was told! Room 4 has a narrow door to fit through, it hits the wall as you enter, plus an alarm that sounds if not closed properly which has been pulled by so many guests the door handle and panel were loose on the outside, alarm sounded everything to closed the door. Over £400 for 2 nights expected better quality, hole on the throw on the bed, slicker finish all round needed, as I said though, nice staff.
