The Goddard Arms is a reversal of the usual hotel set-up. Normally you come into a beautiful lobby and then end up in a cramped and ugly room. Here the entrance looks shabby, but my room was spacious, well-furnished and clean. Breakfast was fine, and the staff were helpful and pleasant. It is well located in the much-maligned town of... more

My partner and I were in Swindon for a wedding and chose the hotel on the internet. The room rate was fine, the room secluded in an annexe. There was an unusual pay at check in procedure which was a little strange. Staff were on the whole helpful, the only problem we had with it was the fact that we... more
