Very functional and clean
Very Clean and functional (basic accommodation) no bar or restaurant, a good base for the weekend while in the area.
Easy walk into town where there are plenty of pubs and restaurants.

Really great stay here and glad we booked this for our stay. We also made use of the small kitchen downstairs to use the microwave and this worked really well for our requirements that evening. Room was really clean and well put together- bed was super comfortable

Overnight stay at the Riverside for meeting the following day. Never stayed in a hotel no staff at hand - have to say the experience was fine - nice hotel, good parking, clean and spacious room and great shower - what more could you ask for.

As a local I’ve known of this place but this was the first time it popped up in my Expedia feed. If you want a cheap, clean quiet very comfortable place, this is it.

Reasonable place to stay
Only stayed one night, room was clean, spacious and beds comfortable and place was quite. It didn’t have a fridge in room or a lift to get to room, which meant I had to carry my suitcase up the stairs.

Great value hotel
Booked this hotel for a wedding as it's one of the cheapest in the area. The location is perfect ten minute walk into the lovely Cirencester. Much better area than the premier inn across the road. If you're looking for a affordable no frills hotel this is the one for you!

Great hotel
I really enjoyed my stay at Riverside Hotel. There was plenty of space available in their free carpark. As there is no Reception on site I received the check-in code exactly as explained on my phone. The process at the hotel to collect my key worked without a problem. The room was spacious, immaculately clean, had a very comfortable bed and plenty of hot water in the en-suite. I had a comfortable night's sleep.

Great little hotel. Does exactly what you need. Not the prettiest area (it is in an industrial area), but gates mean it feels very safe.

The place was clean and not too expensive, that’s about all I can recommend about it. Impersonal and stuck on the edges of town within an industrial estate, it wouldn’t be my first choice if I’m visiting Cirencester again.

A good price
This hotel is excellent for the price. However access is totally automated and bar from the cleaner we never saw any staff. Room was comfortable and clean. We stayed here mainly as it was reasonably price and were aware that there wasn’t a lift. If you have serious disabilities this hotel would not be suitable as there are no ground floor rooms. Felt it was rather impersonal but at the price paid this was acceptable. Overall this hotel was good value for money

Acceptable if you just need somewhere to put your
Nice, clean hotel and (king) rooms if you just need to put your head down somewhere.
Good location just outside of the town, 15 walk into town. Very quiet on a weekends, which is when we stayed but check and access was very good. No other facilities on site on the weekend but we didn’t really need any.

First impressions impression was it looks like a hostel as was the last impression.
Room had no AC Andrea’s hot day, but could not open windows due to the noisy road. Windows need to be better.
