Mollies Motel
$90-160/ noche
Reserva esto si You want the cool factor of Soho House design without the membership fees or the pretension.
Por qué a la gente le encanta
- Soho House interiors at budget motel prices
- Dyson hairdryers and GHD straighteners in every room
- American diner on-site with killer burgers and shakes
Resumen rápido: It’s a glorified roadside motel next to a BP gas station, but once you step inside, it’s genuinely chic.
Reseñado por @wherejesstravels: I was blown away by the value here. For £45, you get interiors that feel like a members' club and a diner that serves incredible comfort food. It's the perfect stylish base for a Cotswolds road trip without the usual price tag.
