I’ve been a licensed Architect for more than a half a century in California and recently did a tour of seven hotels in the Cotswold’s. I chose the ones that I thought would be the most interesting. This one is it! The others were impressive examples of structures built for the upper classes. This one is a tribute to the Working Class. The Mill has two Waterwheels which, although built a century apart, are each an example of the Highest Technology of their time. Whoever turned this into a hotel did a marvelous job of blending this factory type environment into a pleasant, restful, lovely place while exposing you to that Technology. They preserved your ability to experience the time period by not overly modernizing it. Beautiful Water Gardens, Very good Food & the Staff are very Welcoming, Friendly, and Knowledgeable …. I would especially like to thank Charlie, she does an excellent job. Cheers!

Property has a large carpark which was great. We arrived for 3pm and the restaurant/bar was very busy but the Lady who checked us in was very polite and professional. We even managed to get a last minute table for 2 Sunday lunch which was delicious. Room was very nice and had been recently renovated. Breakfast the next morning was also very good. Overall a lovely 1x night stay and would definitely stay again.

Lovely couple of nights with a few drinks by the brook as well as lovely dinner in the restaurant

Over the years I’ve stayed at the Egypt Mill many times, but some of the rooms now are becoming very tired and dated. BUT the main reason I won’t be staying again is the lateness of breakfast/checkout. Breakfast doesn’t start until 8am which is far too late when working, I also struggled to find someone to open up to allow me to check out.

great staff, great food, nice room looking over the river. Carpets looking a little tired in places as is the outside area around the pond. Good parking

Overall a very nice place and a great restaurant which I'd recommend, with friendly staff. The room was nice. Only downside was a slightly dirty bedsheet, and the windows are not great for drowning out outside noise, but this is probably due to the windows being original and maybe listed.

Pleasant stay.

Cleaned every day during our stay

Lovely hotel and position. Only negative was to reception

I really enjoyed my brief stay in this beautiful and historic hotel.

History of the water mill

We are so grateful that we found this amazing hotel after another location fell through at the last minute. The beauty of the hotel and the entire surrounding area was so wonderful and peaceful, the food in the pub was amazing, the staff was delightful...I can't say enough! I am writing this from my sofa in the US and am missing it already!

Charming hotel with a lot of atmosphere as well in the restaurant as in my room and outside. Late arrival was no problem with key in a key safe. Unfortunately my room had carpet although I booked without for allergy reasons. Good restaurant for breakfast and dinner. Breakfast starts at 8 which is a bit late for a business trip.

As usual my stay was good. Staff are very friendly and helpful. However, as a person staying for business breakfast is too late. Starting service at 8 is too late, if you would like to eat, the most important meal of the day, an then have to travel on some where to start work at 8 to 8.30.

Comfy beds, and an ok room for the price but it didn’t include breakfast

Great couple of nights at the Egypt Mill. Visited for Cheltenham and was spot on

Bathroom a bit outdated but room was huge and so was the comfy bed. The staff couldn't do enough to help!

Lovely surroundings. Great service. Very comfortable. Would recommend a stay here.

The plumbing is a little eccentric and a welcome pack with information like the WiFi code would be useful, but otherwise everything was excellent.

Very quirky hotel, we thought it was brilliant and had a wonderful stay.

We arrived early but our room was ready for us which was brilliant. The person who welcomed us was very friendly and helpful, which made us feel good. The service in the restaurant was good and friendly for our evening meals and also breakfast. Though it was an old building the room was spacious and comfortable, bathroom was well equipped . The two nights we spent her was very comfortable and would recommend it

Very friendly and good customer service. Cutlery could have been cleaner. Food nice. Tables wiped down with disinfectant between use. Bedroom/bathroom clean and comfortable. Heated well. Lovely setting and interesting history.

Beautiful location. Rooms not serviced daily due to Covid-19! At this point that is just a poor excuse. If there are no other Covid-19 safety policies in place, distancing, masks, hand sanitizer on tables etc then why can’t rooms be serviced? Hotel still uses single use toiletries which is environmentally disastrous. Very happy to see a vegetarian English breakfast on the menu. However the vegetarian sausages used are in my opinion the worst on the market. They are purely vegetable based offering no protein. Quorn, moving mountain or Linda McCartney would be better. Dinner staff not attentive enough and don’t check if you need more drinks, desert menu or bill! Breakfast staff were very good however.

Excellent service...team accommodated our early check-in and were super friendly. Interesting, quirky rooms and lovely setting.

Pretty historic converted mill, pretty surroundings, loved the courtyard plenty of seating area, quirky with a busy vibe! Food and room was excellent, would have been a good idea to have had the option to turn the radiator off or down in the bathroom as we stayed whilst there was a heatwave! There was also a slight mix up with the room we were staying in but apart from that our stay was lovely and would definitely return ☺️ Nailsworth is a pretty place to explore being quite close to Bath and other popular places in the Cotswolds.

Very nice relaxing break to celebrate a special event . Hotel had a lovely period feel being originally an 18th Century water powered flour mill which had been converted to a hotel about 30 years ago. The mill pond and stream featured strongly in the overall ambience. The floor in our room sloped quite a bit and care was needed when moving around. Nailsworth had lots of excellent eateries and the location was ideal things like Slimbridge and Chedworth Villa and Weston Birt Arboretum and the Cotswold Sculpture Park

Was able to have a quieter part of the hotel that was pet free.Pleasant surroundings central to vaious supermarkets and restaurants with a few shops. Rooms are fairly spacious. Clean and few little extras.We both had a good nights sleep.Staff were very friendly and accomodating.

A very warm welcome, with fabulous food. What a lovely historic place. Will definitely return when back in the area. Highly recommend

Very attractive building both inside and out. The small town in which it is situated is lovely with small, individual shops and good restaurants

Great location with plenty of parking. Only disappointment was that a wedding was taking place which meant that the Downstairs Bar, Restaurant and outdoor seating area was not open to guests. These are great areas and without access means you are not getting all that the Hotel has to offer. Would be respectful that when booking accommodation you are advised of there is a function taking place that limits access to the Hotel amenities.
