Stayed for a night, was really nice and a really cute english room. Only thing was dust falling down form the air vent in the bathroom. Other than that everything was perfect.

Decent
Lovely pub, good parking, decent food. Warm shower. Only downside, bed was very very hard, and the person below me had their tv blaring till gone 2 in the morning. But that’s not the fault of the hotel. Would stay here again.

Easy check-in clean room. Only worry was the adjoining door wasn't locked in my side. Pub next door was friendly with reasonably priced food.

Very good value for the price paid and much better than similarly priced rooms, hotels etc that I ve stayed at before this year in the Swindon area. Comfy bed, pillows cover etc. good in room facilities, large bathroom, good hot water provided.

Nice
Room clean and comfortable but there was an event evening in the bar / Restaurant and a limited menu that was not aware of when booking ( day before arrival) would have been nice to have been informed of this event before arrival

If you want luxury, pay luxury prices. If you want comfort and essentials at a reasonable price then this is for you. The lovely staff and great food the pub has to offer is an absolute bonus. We had dinner and breakfast and both were delicious, great value for money and relaxed. Parking is plentiful - i didn't use the wi-fi or visit the surrounding area so cannot comment If youre looking for somewhere to rest your head for a night or two then i can wholeheartedly recommend the crown inn.

IT'S a little tricky to find with the crazy one way system the first time you visit,Breakfast starting so late in the morning i think they said around 10ish ?. That's crazy .but for the price for a night is excellent, that's i stay there when I can friendly good service good beer and food and a quiet location very close to major road links.

The check in was awful the woman receptionist ( although theres no actual reception) was awful, she didnt say hellp, please or Thankyou her attitude was awful you cannot greet guests this way. The room given was a disabled room everything too low toilet had no toilet seat, the bathroom itself was awful i went to supermarket and brought cleaning products and air freshners the mould in the room and bathroom was awful This could be a great hotel if a litte work was done painting and decorating, the bar staff were really friendly though and room could have been better if it was not disabled access.. Ive stayed in over 500 hotels in the world and my reviews are based on honest experience, 2/10. Really requires staff who know how to address guests and smile it costs nothing to smile and be polite

Disappointing
Disappointing but I suppose you get what you pay for. Room was tired, bed uncomfortable but appeared clean. Bathroom needs TLC. Food was excellent although service was a little challenging at times. I had a room over the courtyard which is adjacent to a busy road. Lots of noise. Tried to drown it out with the TV but the TV reception went from OK to non existent.

FLEXIBLE STAFF
Extremely flexible when booking in, I required to book in early (10.00 AM) as my circumstances changed. The staff very kindly accommodated this request without any issues, saving me a lot of stress and worry. Room very clean and bed comfortable. If I could suggest a fan for the room as it was very hot at the time of staying, other than that would happily stay again.

Perfect to catch up on sleep
Really quiet, very warm, free wifi, and a real bath! 5 minutes walk from Aldi and 10 minutes walk from the bus stop, large car park for drivers. The housemaids only come in to clean if you want to and they work in twos, which I think is a really good idea (google Sofitel DSK). Will definitely stay there again if I need to.
