Dirty carpets Bar prices
Very friendly helpful staff. Clean and well equippef room. Very good location.
Location, comfortable, quiet even though overlooks the courtyard.
Door lock to room was very hard to open Great variety of tv channels but no radio
Location and service. From checking in to The bar manager Paul and the tallest barman Ty
Double bed is two pushed together so uncomfortable to cuddle. No breakfast option yet but it’s coming!
Location, friendly staff.
People smoking outside of the rooms
Convenient location
Our door is due for replace/repair, There were gaps in the door's construction, ok this time of year, but will be cold draughts when the colder weather arrives!
Goede ligging
Geen ontbijt
We always stay here when visiting family, so know exactly what we're getting. Room was adequate for a one night stay.
Unfortunately the bar and restaurant were closed due to a technical problem 😕
All good
Everything was great
The bed was amazingly comfortable. Room was clean and spacious.
The room opened onto the pub garden, so at times there were noisy people sat directly outside our room. There was no food served at all at the pub during our stay. No breakfast or dinner. But there are plenty of places to eat in the surrounding area.
The pub, restaurant and beer garden were lovely.
The room! I understand it’s an old building, but the room sloped from front to back. The carpet was stained, the furniture was very shabby, there were no curtains and it was very warm.
Welcoming staff and neat and clean rooms, perfect accommodation for a wedding nearby. Just a shame we weren’t table to try out the pub as that looked lovely too.
No aircon which was a shame as it was the hottest day of the year so far but we had a fan in the car in case and it was fine with the window open - still good value for money
The room was reasonably tidy but bathroom was basic and looked very tired. Furnishing was pretty old and tired.
Stupid fire escape open? All Night! Felt unsafe in the room anybody and everybody trailing through the metal structure until 1.00am the noise was horrendous and our room by the door the suite! Number 4 don’t book it virtually no sleep all night party going elsewhere music until 3 am from the council estate at the back where the fire escape was. This should be closed and only used in the event of a fire! No option for breakfast chef had left. Was not advised prior to stay. Wootton Bassett was very run down the highlight was a nice Italian.
zeer vriendelijk personeel dat allerlei tips over de omgeving vertelde, bar personeel dat je verschillende biertjes liet proeven
voor het ontbijt moesten we 250 meter lopen aan de overkant, maar was heel goed
The location was great. The bar staff were very helpful on arrival and helped with parking. The hotel was clean and busy creating a good atmosphere. Instructions were given about checking out and the current dinner/breakfast situation. Outdoor space for our downstairs room was great as the room was so hot.
Could do better - limited dinner menu no breakfast offered, 1 room was up a external metal staircase which was fine for us but would have been difficult for young/old/infirm, rooms weren't near if it was a family situation again ok for us. More pillows needed, rooms were very hot although fans were provided. No parking provided but not mention of this when booking as far as I can remember. Couldn't pay via phone had to physically have my card luckily I had packed it!
Friendly staff Welcoming Would stay again
Bedroom was lovely and Bed was big but uncomfortable. More details for Parking around the back. And a sensor light should be offered for getting out of bed in the night, especially if your elderly
Nice clean room with a small fridge - very handy.
No breakfast
Lovely staff, very helpful really nice rooms and very clean
Location, room, pub and staff.
3pm Check In and 10am Check Out. At least give an option to check in early and possibly change the 10am check out. That's the earliest I've seen in any accommodation in the UK.
They don’t have their own parking, and the restaurant is only open during very specific times, 6-8 I think. I’m often busy till late!
Location was good and outside court yard was nice to sit in
Carpets in the rooms needs a good clean. Could have done with more than one pillow each, bath had black tape on it
It’s quirky and although on the high street very quiet
No breakfast and I could not get a coffee from the bar at 21.00 that was disappointing.
A nice room, fairly quiet location and reasonably priced. Parking outside was convenient and free between 6pm and 8am, and the room was very clean and comfortable. Staff friendly and helpful!
Not much - only issue was that I hadn't realised that they don't do breakfast! Possibly my fault for not checking thoroughly, but worth mentioning in case someone else is expecting to order breakfast when they get there for the mext morning.
Good location, competitive price
Proximity to beer garden and ground floor. Back gate not locked therefore security concerns. Uncomfortably hot although fan provided
It was clean and the bed was very comfortable. Staff were very helpful and friendly.
Bath side was loose.
Good location comfortable room
Bathroom a bit tired
La cura dei fiori, i tavoli di legno esterni vicino alle stanze dove poter mangiare qualcosa o prendere un po' d'aria
alcuni dettagli della stanza era migliorabili, va fatta della manutenzione
Found the room clean
Doors were difficulty to unlock
Good location for eating out. Beautiful flower displays
No food available - breakfast or dinner. Carpet in bedroom very grubby - needing shampoo
No breakfast served at the pub
Bathroom sink cracked Bath panel come away from bath
Awesome location Beautiful room Helpful staff
We needed breakfast I Would suggest you up the price to include breakfast and then chef knows how many breakfasts are needed each day.
Lovely old building very welcoming we were made to feel at home
Nothing not to like
Fijne uitvalsbasis voor de Cotswold’reis
Geen ontbijt mogelijkheid
Location was good. Room nice.
No Breakfast available. Bar closed at 10pm due to lack of attendance midweek. No fans available. We were told that they had 25 for 28 rooms, 12 left due breakages and guests taking them. We did NOT have a fan on the hotest day of the year. The room window faced west so it heated up further before we went to bed. There public path that runs through the courtyard outside our room. There is no parking at the premesis but street parking is free for 2 hours and between 6pm and 8am.
Very good staff, helpful and the new manager was positive in making The Angel better than when previously stayed, very positive!
Mattress's need looking into, unable to sleep comfortably.
Stanza accogliente e pulita all' interno di un favoloso pub in cui si mangiava benissimo e c' era una grande scelta di ottime birre. Ottima posizione per raggiungere le Costwold, Bath, Bristol, Stonedge...
So convenient for us to stay on our way to London.Great place and lovely staff.
All good
Lovely building in centre of town Room 3 was clean
Room in hotel was a bit shabby with loud noises from boiler in a cupboard next door which went off every time someone used hot water. Preventing relaxation and a good sleep. Mattress was uncomfortable and coat hooks broken. No entrance through hotel at night after it’s closed had to use fire escape . Fire escape not suitable for heels on shoes and metal walkway not good. Fire escape door rotten.
Easy to book in clean tidy room
Bed was a little soft but ok
Ideal location in the centre of RWB. Easy parking at the Sainsbury’s just behind the pub - free between 6pm and 8am. Very pleasant and helpful staff member at check-in. Room very clean and had just about everything I needed. I have stayed here numerous times and will do so again.
The bedroom was very warm and an electric fan would have been a welcome addition.
The rooms are separate from the pub which is lovely and beautiful flowers everywhere
Shame there’s not even a continental breakfast and the food in the pub finishes at 8pm
Stanza carina .. e direi anche abbastanza pulita..in particolare è molto bello il pub. Gentile anche il personale! Buono anche il food
Forse il bagno.. piccolo. Molto essenziale
great food, what you pay is what you get, it’s clean
Very clean but slightly tired
The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. Could have done with a fan in room as it was very warm. Overall it was nice
Wonky floorboards
friendly Staff
Was in a room down stair window over looking beer garden was Noisy couldn't have window open. there was a gap around door which let light though
Central location and convenient
Rooms need updating. Need a fridge in room Room was hot so we had to leave door open Hotel does not lock in the rooms area-open to street No parking
Convenient location, easy check in and check out nice beer garden
Food only served until 8pm
Staff were very friendly.
Very convenient location - not far from the M4 so a good stop over. Self contained accomodation. Very easy check in / out. Nice to have two armchairs in the room.
The bed was very soft - probably personal preference.
Excellent location for our visit to RWB. Lovely old English pub.
Bed was comfortable
Like some old motel
The room was unacceptable being very unclean and we couldn't stay there. The manager was very understanding and dealt with our problem in a very professionnel manner. If we could rate the manager (Paul) we would happily give home a rating of 5!
The room was very dirty, the bed was in a very bad state and the headboard was filthy from other guests greasy hair.
Friendly staff. Nice setting.
No fans available in the rooms on such a hot weekend. The room was small too which didn’t help. When leaving next morning no one was around at all so had to leave key in side and leave via back fire exit. Just feel someone should be there to ask if all was ok etc and take keys back
Room was spotless, excellent shower comfortable furnishings and all add ons like iron, hairdryer, tea/coffee and a fan.
Room was stiflingly hot in heatwave, despite opening deluxe skylight in bathroom and fan did little to help. In the morning, no-one around to offer breakfast so had to go elsewhere, not easy on Sunday. Also, I planned to have dinner Saturday but due to chef doing an event restaurant was closed. Not explained on booking or arrival so very annoying and as England match on all local eateries were full so options very limited. Royal WB is not as pretty as believed.
Lovely room with everything we needed. The Angel its self was lovely. The staff were very polite, friendly and helpful. We had a meal the evening we arrived and the food was absolutely delicious.
Nothing we didn’t like but the room could have been cleaned a bit better. The toilet had some brown staining in the bottom and the extractor fan was full of dust. Also a bit of black on the left side of the top of the bath and the side of the bath had quite a big crack in it.
Very quiet room
Hotel right on the high street with off road parking 8 am til 6 pm but free overnight.
Nothing major, perhaps a freshen up sink was cracked, bath panel damaged.
Location is good
Restaurant closes early
It was relaxed and comfortable, good value for money and the room was spacious with a nice walk in wet room shower. The rooms were arranged around a central courtyard on 2 levels. It is a charming set up.
It was hot and we needed the window open..Unfortunately our room was next to a main road, but that was the only issue.
We didn't eat
We don't eat there
The staff were lovely. The menu was simple but the food was delicious
The hotel doesn't serve breakfast and i had to ask for items to be re-stocked in my room - they weren"t naturally replenished.
All excellent now looking a little tired Rooms need upgrading and up the price possible
My room has a new shower room which I liked. Friendly staff and comfortable room. Great value. The food wasn’t fancy but it was tasty ( I enjoyed ham, egg and chips)
The bedroom is a bit cluttered but still comfortable. The bottle of water is very welcome but I suggest a bottle top.
Beautiful pub and beautiful room, parking on the street just in front
Clean and comfortable room, friendly staff, lovely pub!
Can’t fault it!
La comunicación, el acceso fácil y la ubicación. La habitación era pequeña pero cómoda.
Eche en falta una nevera pequeña y quizá una silla más en la habitación
Good location and good value
It’s a bit jaded
Lovely place to stay loved it
Only down side couldnt get breakfasts
Very comfortable bed good central location price Very reasonable
Road noise in the morning but can't be helped as centre location
Camera pulita, spaziosa e silenziosa, ben arredata posizionata al piano superiore di una tipica birreria.
L'unica pecca è che non danno la colazione
Goed verzorgd. Leuk binnenterras. Kamer op de begane grond
Everything
Nothing really just a shame it doesn’t have its own parking
Lovely pub and location, friendly staff
As usual the staff were polite, helpful and cheerful.
The weather was extremely hot when we stayed, it would probably be a good idea for the hotel to provide a fan as there is no air conditioning. A very unpleasant night!
Only single room available when we arrived, although we had booked a King en-suite. Staff told us this frequently happens as Bookings.com assume room is for 1 person so smaller room is allocated. They say they have repeatedly informed Bookings.com but nothing is done about the flaws in the booking system. Rooms in the pub hadn't been cleaned from the night before, so they were unable to offer one of those. Staff found another room in an area that is adjacent to the rear patio that was noisy with drinkers. We viewed the room and took in the broken bath panel, fan loose on wall, wallpaper torn in places and decided not to stay. Receptionist was unsurprised and said this happens regularly. Room pictures are not accurate in terms of the present condition of the rooms (we viewed 2)and photos need updating. Maintenance needs addressing; this is definitely not a 4* establishment. Pub food on offer was sandwiches or a few basic options (apparently because of the heat), so we ate elsewhere in the high street and decided to complete our journey home without staying the night. Bookings.com need to address the issues with the room allocations to resolve this for other potential guests.
Location, Price, Staff and Pub.
More attention to cleaning the room after Dog(s) have been in the room, it shouldn't just be cleaned the same way when only humans have stayed. We could definitely smell dog. Try Shake n Vac on the carpets ? Wonky toilet seat which I have mentioned on many occasions, but I've learned to live with it because nothing gets done. We did hear dog(s) barking at approx 9am.
Location good
Rooms need tlc. Mattress was dreadful - collapsed when sitting on it. Light bulbs not working. Broken bath panel. Bathroom fan hanging off the wall. Fan provided in room was welcome but was so noisy and was very intermittent
Lovely reception when booking in. Beautiful room, very comfortable and clean. Brilliant stay for the money

Sehr grosses Zimmer
Location very good and nice room, good decor and clean
Room directly onto outdoor seating area, fortunately was midweek and quiet
The room was exceptional value, spotless and comfortable and had everything we needed. We ate in the pub, the food was very good. The staff were really welcoming and helpful.
There is parking but it is restricted which wasn't made clear before our arrival. There was no plug socket near the mirror/no mirror near the socket, no where to sit and do make up or dry hair, minor issue.
Nice atmosphere
Nothing
Excellent location lovely courtyard staff very friendly
Mattress was a bit soft
Friendly reception, practical location and access for what we wanted, did the trick
I didn’t realise the rooms were set around the beer garden so if you want a quiet early night then maybe ear plugs is the way to go
Nice central location
Slightly strange entry and exit arrangements
This is our second visit to the hotel and we like it. This time we had a ground floor corner room outside. It was quiet at night, the bed was comfy. We had lunch and that was very nice. Although we couldn't eat in the evening due to having a large party and only having one chef, so we are across the road. The hotel looks beautiful from the front.
No parking at the hotel. Limited parking at the front of the hotel and only free after six o'clock, we had to keep moving the car.
Great character, excellent staff.
Local for work, nice town
We reported the toilet seat was broken on our first day and was told it would be reported to house keeping but it was never rectified. We were offered another room but declined as the room we had was one that had a smart TV, we thought we would get the toilet seat fixed as we were there all week. Other than that it was a pleasant stay.
Room
Offered Breakfast with the room
The room was excellent, with an extremely comfortable bed, beautiful bathroom, great shower pressure, and an amazing bath. We both slept very well and it was one of the nicest rooms we stayed in during our trip. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and we also had a very good dinner in the pub.
There was some confusion with our Booking.com reservation, as the property was only expecting one guest rather than one adult and one child. This meant our room allocation was changed on arrival and we ended up next to a 40th birthday party. It was noisy for a while, although everything settled down by around 11pm. There were also no staff available when we checked out, so we had to take our luggage out through the back of the pub and around to the front street.
Location and all the staff where extremely helpful
The venue was amazing, the staff were very accommodating, and the location was perfect, will definitely stay here again, we ate in the pub as well and food was amazing
Very comfortable bed. Good size room. The staff we saw were very pleasant.
Bathroom could do with a new sink and bath panel.
Good quality fixtures and fittings. Comfortable bed and good shower. Clean and tidy.
No breakfast availability
