Gloucester Robinswood Hotel

A pleasant spa and health club set on a hill. It was very clean and with top rated equipment. The swimming pool is good, well used, and looks worth while using the facility. There are plenty of training machines, and nicely decorated out beauty salon. It is all on the level except one area, entering the training area, where there is a small step to be wary of (photo 8). The Spa club is behind the hotels front entrance car park (photo 1) and you just need to follow the driveway around to it (photo 2). Park up then go along the path to the Spa entrance (photo 3). We were greeted by a very pleasant young man (photo 4) who took care of us and showed us around. The swimming pool was a delight to see (photo 5) nicely thought out designs, and practical with nice little touches (photo 6). It had a good sized Jaccuzi bubbling pool which seemed to be popular (photo 7) and the whole Spa is family friendly. The modern training area is large, BUT MIND THE SMALL STEP to enter (photo 8) and there is an excellent choice of modern equipment (photos 9 and 10) and they even had a decent badminton court (photo 11). Disabled have their own changing room (photo 12) which was clean and tidy. the leisure club (photo 13) is easy to enter, leading to a well appointed beauty salon (photo 14) with private rooms available (photo 15) so all in all, we felt the club would be a delightful place to enjoy their facilities. On departure you just need to pick your car up (photo 16) and drive round through main hotels car park and along towards the exit which looks over the RAVENSWOOD SKI AND SNOWBOARD PARK (photo 17) (WE OFFER A REVIEW FOR RESORT PARK OUR FINAL THOUGHTS The whole hotel was quite a nice place to visit, the Spa and health club is very nice, suitable for disabled. It is very clean throughout, with modern equipment. We would recommend the Spa.

A pleasant surprise, not a bad little hotel, tucked away below lovely hillside views. It is a nice hotel, but not really wheelchair friendly, ok if you can walk on your own. It looks attractive when you arrive with many trees lining the car park (photo 1) but your first challenge is to get down to hotels entrance (photo 2) but hidden away at the end of a line of cars you will find a slope leading down (photo 3) which will take you along towards the entrance (photo 4) but it is a rather steep hill. The entrance has automatic sliding doors and is on the level, and you enter a pleasant reception area (photo 5) where we were warmly greeted by willing staff. From there in though you will find many steps to wherever you want to go (photo 6) so you will need to use the ramp just by front entrance (photo 7) which is a bit steep. You will then pass the disabled toilets (photo 8) which were clean and tidy with grab rails, and you will be able to get a chair inside (photo 9 The passage will continue towards the bar (photo 10) and the whole lounge looked very inviting, spotlessly clean and spacious, with comfortable seating areas (photo 11). At the far end you will find the restaurant (photo 12) again very nicely decorated with plenty of seating that a wheelchair can cope with (photos 13 and 14) but we found a comfortable little spot up by the bar where we ordered a drinks (photo 15). Bedrooms are just beyond a small passage (photo 16) and the whole building looked clean and tidy (photo 17) and although it’s looking a bit tired in one or two spots, it’s still a nice hotel to consider if wanting an overnight rest. We were not able to see any bedrooms as hotel busy cleaning rooms and most were occupied. OUR FINAL THOUGHTS It was a nice hotel, but when you get into hotel it wasn’t really wheelchair friend as you had to go out again and up the outside ramp to get to bar and restaurant, which if it was raining would not be so good, you would get soaked. But once in there it was very nice, alright for a short visit like ours, just to get a drink. We would not recommend this hotel if you are unable to walk and climb a few steps to get up to disabled rooms.
