Reviews and Ratings
The hotel has a great location near free parking and shops in the village center. The rooms offer an excellent bathroom and a comfy bed, but the price could be more appealing. The service is outstanding, with lovely housekeeping and a welcoming drink. Dining options are satisfactory but could use more variety. Overall, a convenient stay with some room for improvement in pricing and dining choices.
The hotel is perfectly situated near the town center, making it convenient to explore the Cotswolds. The charming village center with free parking on Sundays adds to the appeal, but it was a bit noisy being near a busy bay. The rooms were well-equipped, boasting a comfy bed, excellent bathroom, and a lovely sociable round table. The service was top-notch, especially the efficient housekeeping and the delightful welcome drink. The dining experience, with homemade pasta, was a highlight. The facilities were modern and convenient, but the pricing was a bit steep for the overall value offered.
The hotel offers a cozy stay with a very comfortable bed and excellent bathroom. The location is perfect for exploring Highworth, but dining options could be improved. The service provided is top-notch, and the fair pricing adds to the overall positive experience.
