The room was spot on the breakfast food was really good but it was so disorganized as to cleaning plates no plates out no tea spines no bread it was packed and they didn't cope had fire scare staff were good don't have a car overall enjoyed near shops would stay again
Quick service at the reception & very helpful about the parking.
Clean room & bathroom. Comfortable bed. Clean white soft towels & lots of hot water & good shower pressure.
Breakfast had a good choice & well presented.
Our first stay; able to park underground on a Sunday so happy to pay for parking which felt very secure.
Staff extremely helpful in ensuring that we took the correct route out of Swindon when leaving.
Duty manager on our check in date helped us find a local pub for the Sunday football. He also provided a place to store luggage in the meantime.
Good breakfast before we set off

Best location clean rooms and friendly staff.
Good customer service.
7 star
Decent size room, bed reasonably comfy, good breakfast. Staff friendly and helpful. Convenient situation. Only one lift working which was painfully slooooow!
Our stay was one night for an event the hotel was clean and friendly. The lift is under pressure as still after a year or so it does all 5 floors which means a long wait or you get taken on a detour . We had a clean room and breafast was nice but no croissants! Lol
Overall an amazing experience
Lovely staff that provided great service
Location was perfect

Room and breakfast was what is expected of low cost stay.The room was ok,but thin cardboard walls,kids running up and down the halls all night long.Staff polite and 99%helpful .Car park is a joke.The car park listed was the main reason hotel was chosen.No reply messages from hotel.Cant park in hotel and had to park in what seemed like a train station car park.Would i stay here ever again....No.
Was there for business meeting, good hotel, close to station and shops.

Rooms were clean, spacious and recently updated, as was the rest of the hotel. EV charging parking beneath the hotel was really useful and a nice surprise as it wasn’t listed in the property details. Lifts in the hotel however were very poor with long queues and very slow, seemingly random responses when called. Many guests gave up and hauled luggage up and down multiple flights of stairs. Room key system also had issues on the morning of departure with multiple guests being unable to re-enter their rooms after breakfast (ours was reset 3 times in succession) and this was compounded by guests having to wait an age for the lifts.
