Clean & comfortable room & good value for money. The evening meal & buffet breakfast in the club house were also better than average, overall a decent place to stay
Nice welcome and upstairs had a good view. Bed was extremely comfortable and we slept well. Sound proofing between rooms seemed non-existent but this didn't interfere with our sleep.
Very generous servings for the meal we had in the evening and a great complimentary breakfast :)
Staff are super friendly and professional. They always go out of their way to satisfy their customers. I would definitely recommend this hotel to my friends and family.

One night stay.
Lovely setting and close to Cleawell Castle where we had a wedding to go to. Quiet hotel even though busy. Lovely breakfast in the clubhouse and service excellent.
Great place to stay on a budget (certainly over the last month that I’ve stayed there due to work. Friendly staff. Very clean room and bathroom. Plenty of parking with EV charging available. Golf club for food, drinks and extra sport on TV in the bar.
Short walk into Coleford.

Anniversary celebration
Just a one night stay . Friendly hotel a little shabby in areas but clean and tidy. Breakfast very good .
Bell's provided a good base for a pleasant weekend getaway to The Forest of Dean. The room was clean and comfortable - but down to earth; it's probably not the place for those looking for international chain uniformity or city swank, but for our purposes it was fine.
Friendly, welcoming and helpful Staff. Comfortable stay. Tasty Supper. Good Breakfast however the bread would have been better toasted underneath the smashed avocado and poached eggs which were exemplary. Thank you all. Best regards from Amanda

Clean snd simple.
Can be noisy when people walking up snd down the corridor and dhdn a TV is bring played loud quite a few tooms get effected.
Lovely, relaxing stay, nice setting, gym was very clean and up to date equipment.
Only issue we had was we could hear next door talking. Very thin walls.

Pleasant and helpful staff. Clean room with everything I needed. Easy parking. Walking distance from town centre.

Great base to explore the Wye Valley
It’s more than a Golf hotel. The club house provides a decent bar food menu from Breakfast at 7.00 through to last orders at 9pm. Very nice staff the golf look Ok and there is bike hire on site also. Overall a great place for our two day bike adventure. 5 stars
It was a nice room for what I needed but it was a little noisy.
You could hear door banging and unfortunately in the room I was in the people above moving around and the water pipes made a noise too.
When myself or someone else (don't know who) used the cold water be it by the tap or flushing the pipes would vibrate with a droning sound.

So-so
Room was standard but walls are thin. Could hear snoring from next door and people talking/walking in the corridor. The central heating was very noisy. So all in all not conducive to sleep.
Our room had a bath but reception staff advised beforehand it only had a shower.
Food in the restaurant was good and there was plenty of room for our family gathering.
It is a very convenient place to stay if you're exploring the local sights, such as Puzzlewood and Symonds Yat, which were both worth a visit.
