Top Swindon Hotel Reviews

The Old Mill Hotel

The Old Mill Hotel

8/10 Good
"We only stayed for a night on our way to Dorset but we were very happy. The staff were friendly and helpful. They are clearly short staffed but did their best. The hotel is NOT suitable for anyone with physical disabilities mobility issues. The staircase down to the restaurant is steeper than the Eiger Mountain. But you can access it via the external door! Top tip!"
