We were not informed prior to our stay I would have booked elsewhere. To find our room was like a rabbit warren if a disabled person had to walk to the end of long and narrow corridors it would terrible. Not impressed at all ##### Joanne Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### DENISE Sep 10, 2021 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Amenities This is a very basic “motel” type of property. Our room overlooked the parking lot with our window directly in front of a parked car We asked to be moved and got a room on the back side facing some greenery but had a passageway for staff hauling noisy laundry carts right outside the window. Hallway rugs are tired and worn. Atmosphere was institutional and soulless. Location is off a round about in the middle of nowhere with poor signage to find the property. Small strip malls nearby and out of town so no nearby services. The rate we got was &185/night which’s overpriced for what you get. The best thing I can say it that the rooms were clean and staff friendly ##### DENISE Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anil Sep 23, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort ##### Anil Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ## Explore a world of travel with Expedia - [Lodging](?equalTargetTab=tab-0) - [Flights](?equalTargetTab=tab-1) - [Packages](?equalTargetTab=tab-2) - [Cars](?equalTargetTab=tab-3) - [Vacation Rentals](?equalTargetTab=tab-4) - [Things to Do](?equalTargetTab=tab-5) - [Stanton Manor Hotel](https://www.expedia.com/Chippenham-Hotels-Stanton-Manor-Hotel.h1518795.Hotel-Information) - [The Neeld Arms](https://www.expedia.com/Chippenham-Hotels-The-Neeld-Arms.h109472388.Hotel-Information) - [The Garden House](https://www.expedia.com/Chippenham-Hotels-The-Garden-House.h33454799.Hotel-Information) - [The Pines Guest Accommodation](https://www.expedia.com/Chippenham-Hotels-The-Pines-Guest-Accommodation.h9836237.Hotel-Information) - [Cotswold Cottage Bed & Breakfast](https://www.expedia.com/Chippenham-Hotels-Cotswold-Cottage-Bed-Breakfast.h88289131.Hotel-Information) - [Red Lion - B&B](https://www.expedia.com/Chippenham-Hotels-Red-Lion-BB.h3963211.Hotel-Information) - [The White Hart](https://www.expedia.com/Chippenham-Hotels-The-White-Hart.h90921508.Hotel-Information) - [Wayside B&B](https://www.expedia.com/Chippenham-Hotels-Wayside-BB.h5628338.Hotel-Information) - [Avon Lodge](https://www.expedia.com/Chippenham-Hotels-Avon-Lodge.h23415616.Hotel-Information) - [The Cowsheds](https://www.expedia.com/Chippenham-Hotels-The-Cowsheds.h20222124.Hotel-Information) - [London Road Guest Accommodation](https://www.expedia.com/Chippenham-Hotels-London-Road-Guest-Accommodation.h2710182.Hotel-Information) - [Sign of the Angel](https://www.expedia.com/Chippenham-Hotels-Sign-Of-The-Angel.h14886211.Hotel-Information) - [Glamping at the Retreat Wiltshire is Rural Bliss](https://www.expedia.com/Chippenham-Hotels-Glamping-At-The-Retreat-Wiltshire.h83917646.Hotel-Information) - [Best Western Plus Angel Hotel](https://www.expedia.com/Chippenham-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-Angel-Hotel.h790207.Hotel-Information) - [Manor House Hotel and Golf Club](https://www.expedia.com/Chippenham-Hotels-Manor-House-Hotel-And-Golf-Club.h517253.Hotel-Information) - [Castle Combe - the prettiest Cotswold village near Bath / 6 bedrooms ensuite](https://www.expedia.com/Chippenham-Hotels-Vrbo-Property.h42674435.Hotel-Information) - [Battens Farm Cottages - B&B and Self-catering Accommodation](https://www.expedia.com/Chippenham-Hotels-Stable-Cottage-Battens-Farm.h8697666.Hotel-Information) - [The Old House At Home](https://www.expedia.com/Chippenham-Hotels-The-Old-House-At-Home.h3066870.Hotel-Information) - [Manor Farm Bed & Breakfast](https://www.expedia.com/Chippenham-Hotels-Manor-Farm-Bed-Breakfast.h3805957.Hotel-Information) - [Wisteria House B&B](https://www.expedia.com/Chippenham-Hotels-Wisteria-House-BB.h53797442.Hotel-Information) - [Flights to Wiltshire](https://www.expedia.com/Destinations-In-Wiltshire.d6046235.Flight-Destinations) - [Wiltshire Vacations](https://www.expedia.com/Wiltshire.d6046235.Destination-Travel-Guides) - [Car rentals near Wiltshire](https://www.expedia.com/Destinations-In-Wiltshire.d6046235.Car-Rental-Destinations) - [Wiltshire Vacation Rentals](https://www.expedia.com/Destinations-In-Wiltshire.d6046235.Vacation-Rental-Destinations) - [Things to do in Wiltshire](https://www.expedia.com/Things-To-Do-In-Wiltshire.d6046235.Travel-Guide-Activities)
