Leonardo Hotel Cheltenham

Leonardo Hotel Cheltenham

8/10 Good
"Breakfast and helpful receptionist very good. I booked this hotel as it had an EV charger. Our neighbours in the room nextdoor were a bit noisy, but no fault of the hotel. The duvets were too warm for a summer's day, and only read the bit about asking for a sheet too late."

"The outside of the hotel and the public areas are very cute and well maintained. Tons of character. The room itself was ok. The carpet was very worn and the desk chair a bit ratty. But the bathroom is very nice with both a claw foot tub and a walk in shower. Easy 25 minute walk into town. Free parking. Would stay again but hopefully in a different room."
