Review summary

Based on recent reviews

London Inn offers a cosy base, with rooms that guests typically find warm and well-equipped with TV, tea/coffee facilities, and biscuits; plus, free Wi-Fi is available. Many appreciate the convenient location just outside of town, offering free road parking, and some rooms are surprisingly quiet despite being close to the London Road. A satisfying breakfast is often mentioned, including vegetarian options and nice touches such as grilled halloumi; while the pub serves British meals, note that the restaurant might have limited hours, such as only on Sundays. the hotel represents good value, with some guests finding it an excellent stopover while exploring the Cotswold Way.

cute bargood breakfast choicefantastic skittles alleynearby shops

I found the bar and staff downstairs to be very cute. Breakfast offered a good choice and everything was tasty. The skittles alley and games room were fantastic. I enjoyed them. I appreciated the shops nearby and had access to what I needed.

The windy stairs were a little awkward as it is an older building.
