Stopped in for lunch. Excellent food - especially try the scotch egg for a starter....The main meal was superb, and generous in terms of portions....The meat tender, vegetables cooked perfectly and the service was exceptional. Thoroughly recommend.

A nice hotel to spend a few nights. Well situated near the town centre. The room was clean and well appointed. The staff were polite although at times noticeable by their absense. The food was OK and the breakfasts cooked to order. Free WiFi was reliable where ever i was. The off road parking only had realistic spaces for four... More

They even made a fruit salad for us on Sunday morning. Room fairly comfortable, a bit stark but with enough for a short break. We had a room near the church and weren't... More

Having stayed at the Castle in summer for one night we decided to come back for a weekend; this time on bikes arriving on a bitterly cold Friday afternoon. We locked the bikes inside under cover and setted into our room which was spacious with lots of cupboard and drawer space, and most importantly a powerful radiator. After warming up,... More

Room was comfortable, clean, & had the basics. Hotel is walking distance to restaurants, M&S & a few shops. Ask for a room not near the stairs or over the pub. Breakfast was included & had a nice selection. We stayed for 4 nights while on business & were happy to have free wifi.

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
The Castle Hotel, in the picturesque Wiltshire town of Devizes, is a privately run 18th Century Hotel, situated near the banks of the Kennet and Avon Canal, famous for the flight of 29 locks over the 230 foot Caen Hill. Visitors from all over the world flock to the Kennet and Avon Canal to watch or participate in the famous Devizes to Westminster Canoes Race. The Hotel is, also, a perfect location for cyclists to stop off on their journey to London or Bristol. Other areas of natural beauty and historical interest nearby include: Avebury, Stonehenge and Silbury Hill. The Castle Hotel is just metres away from the historic Wadworth's Brewery offering a number of traditional brewed ales delivered to us by dray horse and cart. (*On Thursday's you will find the dray horse and cart at The Castle Hotel where you are welcome to offer the shire horses a small treat). Devizes is close to many major towns and cities including Bristol, Swindon, Salisbury and Bath, making it an ideal base from which you can explore the surrounding area. The M4 is the nearest motorway, accessible from Hungerford at Junction 18, Chippenham at Junction 17, Swindon at Junction's 15 and 16 or Bath at Junction 14. Major roads include the A4, A303, A342 and the A361. We pride ourselves on offering great service in a relaxed friendly environment, through-out our bar, hotel and restaurant. All our facilities have recently undergone a refurbishment, which has made our bar and restaurant very popular with the locals. The 19 bedroom Hotel which has always been popular with tourist and business guests alike has had lots of additions to update this traditional Hotel. ... more   less
