Pleasant experience.
Pros:

Convenient location just off M4. Nothing much in area and need to drive to Swindon for shops etc. The staff were pleasant and especially breakfast staff in attached restaurant. The room was spacious and very clean. We thought the price was slightly excessive hence a drop of 1 star. We were located towards rear of hotel with no noise whatsoever.
It was a very pleasant stay and would stay again. It was good to have attached restaurant with good quality food and meal deal prices.

Love premier inn but would never return to this one!
Pros:

I don't like writing bad reviews and love premier inn but honestly worst premier inn (and any hotel experience) I've ever had. First room had vomit on the floor (was offered apology, another room and free breakfast.) Currently in room exhausted after a terrible night. Noisy air conditioner and when eventually got to sleep woken at 6am by upstairs room who could only be described as doing laps back and forth. Not sure if they're heavy footed or if the ceilings are so poor but was loud enough to wake both me and my daughter.
There are good amenities near hotel but awful for sleep quality and I'm just hoping none of us come down sick after the first room experience. Never had a bad premier inn experience so like the company but would not return to this one

Thank you Leo 🌟
Pros:

We broke down on the motorway, so this stop was completely unplanned and very last-minute. It had been such a stressful evening, but Leo instantly made us feel at ease he was so welcoming, friendly, and genuinely funny. He turned a rough situation into one we could actually laugh about. An absolute credit to the team!

Not a good premier
Pros:

Just had an overnight stay at this hotel as we have stayed at plenty of premier inns before and what we got was very below par for this company. We were in a standard room as it was only one night. The room was tidy but tired. The air conditioning made a vibrating noise when operated so in the end we turned it off. The bathroom had a shower over bath but no rubber mat was supplied which made it very slippery when taking.a shower. Figments were very dated .
We also did a meal deal at the beefeater. The first problem was no guiness zero and the doombar on tap was flat and awful.when ordering food no lasagne,sticky toffee pudding , crumble , Breakfast was cold and virtually empty. Fruit juices all empty milk in coffee machine empty,no sweetener or sugar on show no butter or margarine.
I don’t expect 5 star but I would like the products to be available and cooked breakfast to be hot.

Great stay
Pros:

Great place for somewhere to stay. Clean bedroom and bathroom. Fresh and clean towels. TV was a decent size to watch main TV channels. Bedroom is a good size and plenty of room to walk around and a sofa bed type thing to lounge on when not in bed. Hand wash and shampoo/body wash provided was Baylis and hardings. Great amenities nearby. Brewers fayre next door. Costa, subway and a convenience store next to the premier inn also. There is quite a few places close to the premier inn as well. There is quite a few car dealerships, McDonalds, leisure centre, Asda nearby. There is also Lydiard park nearby to have a nice walk around the lake and the house. Overall great stay. Thank you

Not bad, just a bit of guest noise.
Pros:

Great location, just off the motorway. Fast check-in, staff were great.
Stayed on the top floor, lift was fast, not much waiting around. In the corridor the woodwork needed painting but the room was perfect, nice and clean and in good repair. Had disturbed sleep at night and early morning as any sound in the corridor could easily be heard in the room. Walls and door are probably very thin. People were not being particularly noisy, just talking and laughing but was enough to wake us up in the room. Paid £61 for the night, which was fair value. There is minimal parking around the hotel building but plenty on the main car park for the surrounding amenities.

Great stay!
Pros:

Excellent location close to motorway. Plenty of free parking, which is well lit. Rooms clean and quiet. Staff very helpful and welcoming, quickly finding me an iron and ironing board. Reception has local information and good to see money being raised for local charities. Didn’t have breakfast or meal there, so cannot comment. Would definitely stay again!
