Stanton House Hotel

"like this hotel"

Swindon Central

"Unfortunately there was a power cut. Despite having no electricity or water, the receptionists booked us into the hotel. Despite having mobility problems, the receptionist stated I had to climb 5 floors to my room on the top floor. There was no opportunity to wash or change, or even use the toilet, as there was no water. There was probably a huge risk to health and safety as people with mobility problems would not have been able to go down the stairs. There was a lairy alcoholic in reception who had come from the Weatherspoons pub, and eventually 2 policemen. The receptionist stated I was manned by 3 young people who hadn’t got a clue what to do. It appears there was no policy about what to do in a power cut. They refused to find another hotel for me and refused to give a refund. I will never stay at this hotel again, despite regularly travelling to Swindon"

"Our first stop in the UK, not far from the Lake District. The hotel was very nice, with spacious rooms and a generous breakfast. It's a very good value for money hotel in the UK. There's a gas station and supermarket nearby."

The Goddard Arms

"Came here a couple of times whilst in Swindon as it looked ok inside and had plenty of customers. Great service from all the bar staff we encountered. Food is ok, but nothing special. I had katsu hash browns as there wasn’t much in the way of gluten free options. The hash browns were quite soggy, and there wasn’t much sauce, so I assume they were microwaved. There wasn’t much a football match on one evening and the place was packed with people watching on the big screens. The bar staff amazingly kept up with orders throughout the night."

The Tawny Owl

"Easy to access and got a decent car park right in front of the hotel  Apart from bit old and some small tiny defects in the bathroom, the room was surprisingly nice and spacious cozy with the very relaxed fragrance smell all over the room and the corridor The bar servers who also are  hotel receptionist , they all very helpful friendly and considerate"

The Sun Inn

"What an absolute amazing find. The setting was so beautiful and the room was outstanding and so much nicer than we could have ever imagined. The free standing bath was our favourite, the bed was very comfortable and the settee area was very nice. The staff were very understanding of my sons disability and were very patient and kind. The breakfast was freshly cooked and delicious. One of the nicest places we have ever stayed and cannot wait to return. Could have easily stayed there for days"

The White Hart, Wroughton

"The picture of the place looks great. The reality is somewhat different. The accommodation is in a wooden cladded annex in the car park. The room was basic. The toilet ran all night so it won’t flush properly. We ordered an Aperol spritz and were told they didn’t have any. After we pointed it out on the shelf we were told that the brewery didn’t allow them to make it as it wasn’t on their recipes. The faggots were okay. The chicken burger was dreadful it was grisly meat with a soggy coating. The fries had been cooked in fat which was either too cold and/or dirty. Not Butcombe’s finest establishment"

"This is nitty city. Don’t even consider booking here. For several reasons: there is no drop off point for luggage, you have to park in the car park across the (busy) dual carriageway and walk all the way around the car park perimeter hauling your bags. I’m disabled, so this was deeply problematic. Plus you have to pay a tenner for the privilege of parking. The lift smelled of ****. Hardly surprising as several of the ‘residents’ were openly housed here as opposed to staying overnight. Very friendly, but not necessarily what we expecting. Rooms were clean and basic. But a lovely sign in reception warned us not to open the windows wide as the local pigeon population were keen to come in and rest. The road outside was so noisy I don’t think we were in danger of opening the windows anyway. Would have probably woken up with a respiratory disease what with the road and the spliff lift. Avoid at all costs."
