“The New Inn By Roomsbooked has an undeniable pull for those drawn to Gloucester's history; dating back to the 15th century, the building echoes with stories, though some rooms might bear the marks of time more than others. Its central location places you steps from Gloucester Cathedral, and the promise of a real ale bar could be a welcome reward after a day of exploration; I'd suggest confirming the bar's current offerings before settling in for the night.”
