Checking in and out was nice and simple. Room was very good and spotlessy clean. Comfortable bed. The only let down was breakfast which was a bit dry and overcooked. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Parking was great, in a town where it is notoriously difficult. Would be happy to stay again.

Nice Old Coach House Hotel

Plenty of spaces in the free car park, quick smooth checkin, nice room, comfortable bed. Bar area nice to have a drink could have better selection of ales and lagers.

Historic property in the centre of Marlborough. Very convenient for the town and a good base to explore the local area. Food was good and staff helpful although they were busy. Room was well equipped and only thought was that it was looking a bit tired decor wise. Very comfy bed so no complaints. Would definitely stay again.
