Excellent location & views, super Hotel
The location, on Cleeve Hill, and the views across the racecourse and beyond to the Malvern Hills, were outstanding.

Food was top quality and the staff very friendly, but the hotel was very tired and needed a lot of small adjustments to bring it up to standard.

Situated in a lovely location. It’s owned by a chain so I had the exact same menu as my previous nights stay. All in all it was very good. Clean, attentive staff.

We were pleasantly surprised at the Beautiful views. The dinner was good, and the lady that checked us into the hotel was very helpful. Yes it's an older building, but the rooms were clean. The room we were in did not have AC, but there was a fan. We were there in May so it wasn't real warm, so just be aware of that, if you are there in summer.
