Quick overnight stop on our way down to Southampton after a shopping trip to MacArthur Glen Outlet. We had an excellent night’s sleep . Bed was very comfortable and bathroom was spacious with a great walk in shower. We were disappointed with the evening menu as there was limited choice unless you wanted pizza or a burger so we ate elsewhere.

Really good property! Stayed for two nights. Great value for money - breakfast included was a great bonus. Only downside was there were a lot of ants in the breakfast area and different ant traps like marmalade still out when we were eating breakfast. It wasn’t a massive issue as we just moved seats but it would be great if this was under control :) would stay again if I return to Swindon.

Gem of a place
Great location just outside of town with a good regular bus service a few minutes away. Rooms are clean and a good size with a walk in shower, kettle and tea, coffee, hot chocolate and biscuits replenished daily. A nice little outside patio area for each room has two chairs for sitting outside if you want although there is a large garden area.The staff are very friendly and welcoming and the freshly cooked breakfast sets you up for the day. The food served in the bar is very good and there is a good selection of Arkells beers on as well as a good choice of cider. All in all i would definately stay here again.

We have just returned from a lovely stay at the Sun Inn Swindon and we enjoyed our couple of days spent there. The room we had was clean and comfortable and warm enough at all times. The bed was large and very comfortable and there was a kettle and plenty of tea, coffee and hot chocolate to make a cuppa. We slept very well both nights and although there was a busy dual carriageway opposite there was no noise from traffic during the night. The food in the restaurant was of a good standard and reasonably priced and we ate breakfast each morning which was very nice with plenty of choice. The burgers we ate one evening were delicious and there were plenty of beverages available on tap. The staff working at the Sun Inn work hard and they we're very polite and attentive and one particular barmaid who also had an food allergy like myself was very helpful and informative helping with the menu. Overall we were very pleased with the service and good food we received and at £90 for a two night stay including a cooked breakfast was tremendous value. Many thanks to all the staff for making our stay a happy and memorable one. 😊

Oddly high reviews
It's a bit run down generally although the purpose built accommodation outside the pub was cosy and comfortable. The pictures of the rest of the hotel are not very representative and were probably taken a long time ago. It's not a buffet style breakfast, just a choice of full English or something else with tea or coffee. I declined to have the breakfast because the are was being redecorated and stunk of paint and was covered in protective sheets.and there was only a small place to eat it in a not very clean area. They should have catered better for people whilst they were refurbishing. I'm not a fussy person but I'm suprised at how high the other reviews are. Makes you wonder ... The staff were friendly and helpful but I won't be goiing back.
