This hotel is the Grand Dame of Marlborough. It's right in the centre of the High Street, and includes guest parking - as rare as hen's teeth in the town. The lovely, friendly staff here are local people, full of kindness and knowledge and they take real pride in their hotel and make time for people. Expect large, quirky rooms, comfy beds, a roomy, traditional bar and separate restaurant, ancient oak staircases, and excellent breakfast cooked to order.
