Reviews for Mercure Gloucester, Bowden Hall Hotel
The Best Day of Our Lives
Our guests enjoyed their stay in the hotel, the breakfast was unbelievable and the overall vibe was second to none.
We both highly recommend Bowden Hall for all couples looking for a wedding venue, the decor is modern yet classy, it’s great for children and very welcoming.
Nothing we asked for was too much, Vicky was able to include everything we asked for and was always available which made planning our wedding so much easier.
We wish that we could do it all again! Thank you Vicky and team, you are amazing! Bowden Hall, you will always have our hearts! Mr and Mrs P x
Just amazing....
