Whilst Glastonbury is always the highlight of my year, (getting hold of tickets permitting!) the Pop-Up Hotel has been the icing on the cake.Well situated, the facilities take the hardship out of camping. A comfortable bed, access to a clean toilet and shower and great amenities, has made confirming my reservation second only to doing my 'happy Glastonbury ticket dance'

There is no other way to experience Glastonbury than by staying at Pop-up. Firstly, it couldn’t be closer to the site itself and getting in and out is very easy. It’s only a 20 minute walk from the festival crowds and noise - a perfect spot to come back to late at night/early morning. The staff could not be more friendly and helpful- they really made us feel welcome and special. Nothing was too much trouble. As two 50 somethings, staying here enabled us to catch up with our kids at the festival and have some special time together too. The showers and loos are clean, the breakfasts are delicious, the bar fully stocked. The atmosphere is very chilled. We loved it. So much so that we are coming back in June. For those of you who love Glastonbury but the days of camping with the crowds are over, this is festival living at its best.

The most amazing way to experience Glastonbury Festival. Stunning rooms, clean and awesome toilets/shower facilities (what a luxury!), live music every night and restaurant that served up some delicious food and drinks. Not to mention the pool and breakfast bar! Best coffee at the festival! You could even get room service to your tent. A 10 minute walk from gate D, and the Pop Up staff were very knowledgeable and could answer all our questions. They take your bags to your tent and chauffeur you in a golf buggy, which was perfect in the heat this year. Would never do Glastonbury any other way, I’m coming back every year! Thank you Pop Up for making our festival!

This summer will be our 4th Glastonbury and we can’t wait to see what great things Sara and the team at The PopUp Hotel are planning! This will be our 3rd time at PopUp Hotel and it will continue to be our go-to for all future Glastonbury festivals when we are fortunate enough to secure tickets. Staying at PopUp Hotel makes the Glastonbury experience extra special and fun as it becomes a true oasis to come home to after all of the fun of the festival —for a great night sleep in a comfortable bed along with proper toilets, sinks and hot showers. We also really enjoyed hanging out at the PopUp Hotel until later in the afternoon some days —hanging by the pool, drinking amazing cocktails and eating great food from the onsite offerings (they even provide ā€˜room service’ where they will deliver directly to your tent). I also remember how fun it was coming back one evening to a live DJ set which attracted people to the front entrance of PopUp Hotel as they wanted to be let into the party —only to be turned away by the excellent security staff managing the door; which was good to see as they do a great job only allowing in people who are staying there. You won’t regret a stay a PopUp Hotel to elevate your Glastonbury experience! It’s an easy flat walk to Gate D which gives good central access to any of the main areas of the festival depending where you plan to explore. It is also awesome to arrive ready for Glastonbury with your tent set up, welcome drinks waiting for you and an area to chill before venturing into the festival. I highly recommend booking a spot at the PopUp Hotel for Glastonbury —it is definitely worth it!

This year will be my 12th year on the bounce at Pop Up Glastonbury. It has grown unbelievably in that time and improved every single year. Each year new things are added. The rooms are amazing, the restaurant great, all of it is fantastic. Cannot recommend enough.

Especially if you want some peace & quiet, good food & drinks, lovely tipi tents with very comfortable beds! A wellness & spa area with workshops to relax and re-energise…+ showers!!! Would recommend 100%. Thank you to the friendly staff and pop up hotel for such a wonderful stay! Until next time I hope!! Jenna xxx

Wow 🤩. What an amazing place to stay and enjoy all that the Glastonbury Festival has to offer.The start of the festival was slightly upstaged by the Pop Up Hotel’s genius booking of Ellie Sax and her DJs. It was an absolute delight to be part of Elli’s Thursday night and Friday lunchtime sets.My friend and I were both blessed to have been part of the event … and the weather wasn’t too bad either šŸŽ· šŸŽ¶ šŸ„‚ šŸ»

We stayed in 2019 and we are desperate to stay again! It is incredible! From the minute we arrived to the minute we left, every detail is thought about and Popup just take care of your every need. We had a 6 man yurt and it was so so fun! The beds were so comfy, the golf buggy concierge incredible and it was just generally amazing! We ladies loved getting ready in the dressing tent, cooked breakfast and the bar were amazing. EVERYONE loved a hot shower and the cleanest toilets in Somerset! If you’re worried about the walk, don’t be, you will not regret staying here. Please ticket Gods bless us with tickets and a yurt at the Pop up Hotel again. X
