I would rate this hotel as only average.
There are some positives, such as, the breakfast which was very tasty and hot, the comfort of the bed, the shower was powerful and hot and the TV, which allowed me to watch programmes that I wanted.
However, the negatives are not so good.
These include: -
1. When I booked, I saw nothing mentioned of how the elevator did not operate from lower ground (LG) to upper ground (UG). The only means of getting to the reception, which is on the UG level is by climbing 12 steps. This was totally unacceptable as two of my party are elderly, very frail and have extreme difficulties in ascending and descending stairs. Had we have been advised prior to booking, I am certain we wouldn't have booked.
2. The gentlemen's toilet in the reception has an awful odour as you enter it.
3. On to our designated rooms. We stayed in rooms 527 & 523 (second party).
With 527, the air conditioning does not operate and on entry to the room it was particularly stuffy and hot. Moreso, as a safety precaution, and because it is a high level floor, it is not possible to open the windows to allow airing of the room. This just accentuated the discomfort as the room was too warm.
The toilet flush pressure was poor and flushed too short. I should leave that to ones imagination.
In 523, the hairdryer does not work.
4. One annoying issue; which was not only experienced by us, but also by the patron of room 511; was after we had finished our breakfast and returned to our rooms, none of us could enter due to the key cards being disabled. This was at 1040, and we were prior advised that check out was at 1100.
This was corrected by Tracey, who was apologetic and very nice to deal with (which is another positive, of course).
All in all, my memory of this stay, which was only for 20 hours, will not be the best experience of a hotel stay that I've ever had, and unless they can correct the negatives very soon, I am sorry to say that I would not recommend to family or friends to stay here.
The hotel is conveniently located just off the M4 in Swindon. We used it as a stop off while driving dueing the night. The hotel itself was very festively decorated with lots of Christmas decorations, which was great, ot felt very warm and welcoming. The 24 hour reception desk was one of the reasons we chose the hotel as we were arriving at midnight and the staff memver who checked us in was very professional and welcoming. The car park only had a few spaces left which worried us but we did get a space. The staff were very friendly and helpful. However, there was no heating in our room. There is no central heating so they have put in A/C/heater units on the walls. Our seemed to be broken as it blew out cold air for 30 minutes before we decided to turn it off. We had been travelling for 26 hours at that point and it was gone midnight so I didn't want to go back to the reception desk and risk having to change rooms when we were already so tired. So we layered up and went to bed with jumpers & socks. I asked for a portable heater the next morning at breakfast and they put one in within 5 minutes so that getting ready in the morning wasn't so cold. I was very impressed with the responsiveness of the team. There is no heating in the bathroom either. It was a shame because everything else about the hotel was fine. The breakfast was good too. Perfect for a 1 night stop-over. However, I wouldn't recommend it for winter.
Our stay at this hotel left us feeling a bit underwhelmed. While I wouldn't go so far as to say avoid it entirely, I can't recommend it or see myself returning.
The room, advertised as having a king-size bed, disappointingly turned out to be a double. Despite the hotel's emphasis on green choices, the room was unbearably warm upon arrival. We had to open both the windows and the door just to cool it down. This lack of basic comfort seemed counterintuitive to their eco-conscious branding.
Furthermore, small but crucial amenities were absent, such as a hairdryer, and some lights weren't working. The absence of an in-room phone meant there was no easy way to request these missing items, adding to the overall inconvenience.
The breakfast experience was equally disappointing. The so-called buffet consisted of a small, albeit pleasant, continental breakfast. However, being asked immediately upon arrival if we'd like to pay an additional £10 for a cooked breakfast made the setup feel misleading. At £14.50, the continental breakfast alone did not feel like good value.
The restaurant also had a notice about a £2.50 charge for menu amendments. While I understand the principle of upcharges, this particular policy felt excessive and off-putting.
These issues were compounded by a lack of personal touches that form the foundation of good customer service. No one asked at checkout or during breakfast how our stay had been, a small but impactful gesture that could have mitigated some of our disappointments.
In hindsight, I feel I overpaid by about 20-30% compared to the value I received. Knowing what I do now, I likely wouldn't have chosen this hotel for our stay.
The room was very clean with fresh bed linen. And choice of pillows. The sheets were soft comfortable but loved the mattress. Had a great sleep. Shower was good had a perfect hot shower. Thank you for a great stay. I will be back soon.
With a stay at Manor Farm Bed & Breakfast in Chippenham, you'll be within a 5-minute drive of Castle Combe Circuit and Manor House Golf Club. This bed & breakfast is 15.9 mi (25.5 km) from Thermae Bath Spa and 4.3 mi (7 km) from M4 Karting.
A complimentary breakfast is included.
Free self parking is available onsite.
Make yourself at home in one of the 3 guestrooms.
Lovely room and gardens. Food service a bit hit and miss. Both breakfast requests resulted in mistakes by the young staff but overall the experience was fine and would recommend.
Very nice hotel. This business trip was wrong and stayed at this hotel. The facilities, health, environment and service are very satisfied. The foreign waiter's brain is really stupid. I will choose this hotel next time.
Great apartment in a great location. Had some of my best away from home sleeps here as it was some much like being in a home. Had almost everything I needed with some minor niggles. Would definitely stay again.
My niggles were: WiFi was poor, had to use hotspot to do Teams meetings and affected the TV which was slow and kept loosing the channel signal. Although lots of kitchen ware no small pans. The coffee pods were not very nice, reverted to instant. Toilet roll holder needs some sealant inside to help fix it (plumber trick).
Very Good

GGuest UserLovely hotel, polite and friendly staff, ample parking, excellent location in the heart of town. Only negative is the stains on the bathroom walls that could easily be removed with a little more attention to detail and the cold tap hardly let out any water. Unfortunately there wasn't any real ale available whilst we were there thus stopping us from enjoying that facility.
AAnonymous UserVery nice hotel. This business trip was wrong and stayed at this hotel. The facilities, health, environment and service are very satisfied. The foreign waiter's brain is really stupid. I will choose this hotel next time.

LLuFelt super scary at first with the cracking floor, tilted walls, big mirror, and 512 years history, but later the place showed its charm - very lively at night with people chilling at the backyard, nice restaurant on site, being right opposite to the Anne? Gate which leads you to the Salisbury Cathedral. I prob would choose to stay here again next time I visit Salisbury!
Btw the staff are warm hearted and helped us deal with our Apple Watch forgot in the room. Much appreciated!
GGuest UserThis hotel has got high standards on cleanliness and service consistently. On a bitterly cold weekend the room was warm throughout. In fact very comfortable bed and no need for extra blanket. 2 small issues. The pillows were a bit lumpy but fine and the restarant did not serve evening meals to our liking but overall outstanding !!! Cannot wait to return.
