I recently stopped at this hotel whilst I was on business in Swindon. The landlord is very welcoming and the food was superb. If you're having to work in Swindon or the surrounding area for a while you would be very hard pressed to find a better place to relax after a days work.

We visited on Easter Saturday night and the restaurant and bar were very busy with diners. We had to wait rather a long time and in the end had to ask for our food order to be taken. Garlic granary bread was delicious, if a little chunky. Mains of steak and liver were well executed, but someone had got carried... More

This has to be the best small hotel we have ever stayed in. From arriving to our departure,we were made very welcome and felt right at home. Food superb and plentiful. Had a family room which was very spacious and well equipped. Fold away bed for our son who slept like a log. On second night the owner Simon gave... More

I have been traveling to this hotel for over 4 years and never had a bad experience. Being from America they make you feel at home and being part of the family. I've tried everything on the menu and it's great, my favorite is the grilled steak with Stilton sauce. Highly recommended for business or personal travel.

We stayed here in the summer of 2011. We needed to have access to the M4 for an early start the following day, and this is quite close, so I was a little worried that the noise from the motorway would be intrusive, but it wasn't, even though our bedroom was on the south side of the building. With the... More

My family and I have been going to the Bolingbroke for nearly 10 years infact since the pub was taken over. We have consistently had excellent food and service from every member of staff that work within the pub/restaurant. Since having my daughter who is now 3 years old we have always been made welcome and they have accomodated her... More

I visited the Bolingbroke in a party of 9 people for a a three course Christmas meal on Friday 16 December 2011. Expecting to be seated in the restaurant the bar area had been crammed with tables. My wife's chair had the 2 back legs actually on the open fire surround so the chair seat was at an angle. The... More

This has been one of our favourite places for Sunday lunch for a long time. However, the last two times we have visited there is definitely something wrong with the yorkshire puddings. They are suddenly very solid, heavy and hard to even cut through. If I didn't know better I would think the chef was using SR flour instead of... More

We made a reservation for Saturday evening, 2 days prior and there was almost no choice of dining time slots left, so we were grateful to be offered a table for 8:30 pm. I took that to refelect its popularity which was the case when we turned up, it was full. We were greeted by a young man at the... More
