Cheltenham, Gloucestershire
Cotswolds Elegance, Perfectly Stilled
Where Elizabethan grandeur meets the art of doing absolutely nothing.
Tucked into eight acres of glorious Cotswolds countryside, The Greenway Hotel and Spa is one of those rare retreats that feels simultaneously grand and utterly restful. This 16th-century Elizabethan manor house carries its history with quiet confidence — stone façades softened by rolling grounds, interiors that speak of careful stewardship rather than showpiece renovation. Holding four AA Red Stars and part of the award-winning Eden Hotel Collection (crowned AA Small Hotel Group of the Year 2024–2025, no less), the standards here are not merely maintained; they are evidently cherished.
At the heart of the experience is the Elan Spa, and it is nothing short of immaculate. Guests consistently report that treatments exceed expectations — high praise in an era when the word 'luxury' is so freely deployed. Newly refurbished rooms complete the picture: peaceful, beautifully appointed spaces where the only decision required is how long to linger over breakfast. The staff, by all accounts, make everything feel effortless.
For couples seeking a restorative escape from the city, or spa devotees in pursuit of something genuinely exceptional, The Greenway delivers with understated authority. Cheltenham's Regency charm is a short drive away should you need it, but the honest truth is that once you arrive, you will struggle to find a reason to leave.

What They Say
“I had the most gorgeous Christmas lunch with a group of friends today. The food was wonderful. Beautifully presented and so delicious. The turkey especially was so the best I've had in a long time. It was very generous for the price, and all in a great setting. The staff were all attentive but not intrusive. I will most definitely be coming back very soon. Many thanks all at The Greenway, and happy Christmas. Jan”
“I had the most wonderful maternity massage at the spa today with Debbie. I feel like a different person! I highly recommend it to anyone in need of some calm and relaxation during the final weeks of pregnancy. Update: My baby was born the next morning!”
“I’ve never stayed at the hotel but I really enjoy the spa. It’s a small spa area but it’s very popular. A few areas need a little TLC like the lockers but overall a relaxing environment. Loved the bento boats I had last year while on a pre booked spa day and the drift away massage is highly recommended!!”
“Beautiful hotel in a gorgeous location. The staff were amazing and the food was phenomenal (go for the 7 course taster menu, it's definitely worth it!). The tranquil spa and comfy sofas by open fires are perfect for relaxation.”
“My partner booked Greenway Hotel for my birthday two weeks ago, and it was an absolutely amazing experience! The location is beautiful, and the reception staff were very helpful from the moment we arrived. The housekeeping team also did a fantastic job maintaining hygiene and cleanliness throughout our stay. A special thanks to Jenne from the Spa and Massage team – she is excellent at her work, very professional, and gave one of the best massages I’ve ever had. She truly made the experience extra special. Overall, we had a wonderful time, and I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for comfort, relaxation, and great service.”
