Hotel Description
England's oldest hotel (from 1220) in England's first capital offers quintessentially English service and hospitality. Experience levels of service that you would find hard to better anywhere in England. The highly rated Old Bell reputed to be England's oldest purpose-built hotel is adjacent to the famous Abbey in the historic town of Malmesbury on the edge of the Cotswolds 5 miles from Junction 17 of the M4 motorway and near Chippenham. The Old Bell is steeped in character with log fires paintings stone-walls and period furniture. The bedrooms are individually furnished: those in the main house are more period in character some with beams and fireplaces; those in the Coach House have a light and airy feel to them.

High calibre historic hotel.

Liked: Charming old hotel, perfectly placed for exploring Malmesbury. Lovely touch of complimentary prosecco, and the tea/coffee offering in the room was superb. Staff were very friendly and breakfast was good.
Disliked: The room was a little hot but they did provide a fan to help with this.

Wonderful, relaxing stay whilst visiting...

Liked: Delicious breakfast. Dining room was not overcrowded as breakfast service spanned three hours. Good choice of food and liked the fact that it was locally sourced where possible. A personal preference but an option of overnight oats would be a great addition. Room was lovely. Spacious and peaceful despite overlooking the road. Decor was bold and quirky but so appropriate for the hotel.
Disliked: Nothing.

Superb

Liked: The hotel decor is a feast for the eyes, staff were friendly and helpful and they had a great breakfast selection.
Disliked: Unfortunately our room was at the very top and we were there during a heat-wave. We managed to sleep, but it was very hot.
