Lodging in Gloucester/Three Choirs Festival 2026

Hello,
We are planning to attend the Three Choirs Festival in Gloucester next year (July 2026). There are not a lot of hotels/inns in the city, but perhaps someone on the board could give recommendations if they have stayed there previously. We would like to be within walking distance from Gloucester Cathedral.
The hotels that I can find are:
*The New Inn Hotel
*The New County Hotel
*Central Hotel
*The Albert Hotel
A little farther, but still walkable
*Judges Lodgings Hotel
Most of the VRBO/AirBnBs are already booked.
Also, if any of you have attended the Festival in previous years, I'd love to hear your impressions!

Thanks in advance
Marie

Try the Premier Inn chain. The Quayside one is a 10 minute walk from the Cathedral.

For July, I'd check that the hotel/inn/whatever has AC.

I think Premier Inns all have AC. They are my "go to" option in the UK. Nothing fancy, but get the basics right.
