Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is situated centrally in Melksham, offering a convenient location close to various sightseeing attractions. The rooms are well-equipped with proper ground coffee and very comfortable beds. The service provided by the staff was attentive, although there were some minor issues with the dining options. Overall, a decent value for the price paid.
The hotel is located in the bustling center of Melksham with a cozy pub atmosphere. The rooms are spacious and well-equipped with a great shower, tea, and coffee facilities, but had some limitations on toast availability during breakfast service. The service was friendly and attentive despite minor hiccups with orders. The dining experience offered generous portions with a focus on seasonal local products. Overall, a charming hotel with room for improvement in certain services.
My stay at this hotel was exceptional! The rooms were well-equipped with lovely touches, including proper ground coffee and a cozy king-size bed in a good en suite. However, the service was a bit inconsistent when it came to our toast order. The location, right in the center of Malksham, over the pub, was charming, but dining could be improved with more variety. Overall, a great stay with a few minor hiccups.
