Old world charm

Very picturesque, old hotel. Good food and selection of drinks in the bar, staff friendly and helpful. The room was a good size and comfortable, although I'm not sure 4 people could stay for long in it. However, the floorboards in the room creaked whenever you walked on them and the fan in the bathroom was the loudest I've heard in a long time! Important if, like me, you're up to the toilet during the night and your partner is sleeping. Certainly full of character!

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.
