How this review was built Evidence, sources, refresh cadence
- Evidence: 3 pet-mention guest reviews sourced from major booking platforms - guests who explicitly mentioned travelling with a dog. Each review is screened for pet-relevance, then judged for sentiment to compute the paw rating.
- Not a personal visit. We don't stay at every hotel we cover - we summarise patterns from real guest reviews, paraphrased and never quoted verbatim. Full standard on our editorial policy page.
- Wider context: The property has 67 guest reviews overall across booking platforms, averaging 9.0/10 - the paw rating reflects only the pet-mentioning subset.
- Last refreshed: July 2026. Policies and pricing drift; we re-check on a rolling basis. Confirm specifics with the property at the moment you book.
- How the paw rating works: Full detail on the methodology page, including the three verification gates and known limitations.

Pet-friendly summary
Montpellier Villa is a comfortable, cosy apartment in the elegant Montpellier district of Cheltenham, and it makes an easy, welcoming base for a dog owner visiting the Cotswolds' most handsome spa town. Guests travelling with a dog are consistently positive, and one thing they particularly value is simply that the apartment genuinely takes dogs, which is not a given in a smart town-centre setting.
The location does a lot for owners. There is a park close by that guests found great for walks, so the daily dog walk is sorted without a drive, and the surrounding streets are full of the restaurants, cafes and bars that Montpellier is known for, many of them relaxed about dogs. It is a comfortable, clean flat that suits a couple or small family with a dog visiting friends and family in Cheltenham or using the town as a Cotswolds base.
The feedback is warm and repeat-friendly, with guests saying they would happily return. As a town-centre apartment it is more about location and comfort than outdoor space, so owners rely on the nearby park and green spaces rather than a private garden, which suits a dog that is content to be walked and then settle indoors.
Montpellier Villa suits dog owners who want a comfortable, genuinely dog-friendly base in central Cheltenham with a park and plenty of dog-friendly cafes close by. Confirm the pet charge and the number of dogs allowed when you book.
