About The Old Bell
This beautiful period property is steeped in character with log fires, paintings, stone walls and period furniture. It is reputed to be England's oldest hotel, adjacent to the famous Abbey in the historic town of Malmesbury, on the edge of the Cotswolds.
Dine in Edwardian splendour in the award winning restaurant. This ideal location, 5 minutes from Junction 17 of the M4 motorway, makes a perfect base to explore the Cotswolds, Westonbirt Arboretum and many other attractions in the area.
Cirencester, Chippenham and Swindon are a short drive away and so are the Roman city of Bath and Bristol. **We also provide gift wrapped chocolates and house champagne, for those special occasions.
Please call the hotel directly if you wish to purchase these gifts, and we can ensure they are placed in your room prior to arrival, along with a personalised message**

Alice
An amazing stay at the Old Bell! This hotel is beautiful, and the staff are incredibly friendly and helpful.
Sarah
Amazing old building, wonderful period and eclectic decor.
Breakfasts are the best ever - huge selection and all equally delicious (and generously sized!)
Staff and especially Manager Kerry were super helpful and charming.
Dinners and lunches were also very good.
Service was spotty and a bit haphazard.
Internet was not consistent and you had to log in at least three times a day!
Room (‘character’) was OK - a bit dark and dingy given the small window and dark paint. On the small side. The bathroom was OK but a bit neglected and dusty. Everything - furniture, beams, skirting boards, beading, seemed to be painted with a dark paint that hadn’t been properly applied so it is sticky and peeling. Definitely that needs to be remedied as it makes everything look tired and tatty.
More attention needs to be given to cleaning as there was dust on every ledge, skirting board, and cobwebs in corners and in windows! everywhere in the hotel.

The hotel is amazing and Its location has mountains of character
The room was lovely and clean. The decoration was immaculate and thoughtful.
The breakfast was wonderful with the options many and the quality very high the staff were friendly throughout and the parking excellent.
The only thing that could be an issue might be air conditioning, but I’m saying that when writing this in the middle of a heat wave. The thick walls are a mitigation for this.

joseph
We had such a lovely weekend at the Old Bell Hotel. The staff is so warm and friendly which definitely made our stay. The property itself is very uniquely decorated and had so much character and charm. The staff accommodated our every need and our room (we booked a junior master) was spacious, beautifully decorated and so comfortable. I would recommend this hotel to anyone! The breakfast was also delicious!
Vicki
The town house was lovely, however the staff were dismissive to the point of being rude when we checked in. The guy who took my card and showed us to our townhouse literally couldn’t be bothered to smile or make any effort at all. We paid a lot of money for my partners birthday and he opened the door handed over the key and left. We had no idea how to use anything barely slept because we couldn’t turn the heating off. So disappointed.
However when we went for supper in the restaurant we had a lovely young waitress who was engaging, courteous and attentive.
When we checked out again the lady on the desk wasn’t interested in our complaint of the heating and barely smiled. Such a shame for such a lovely place to be let down by some of its staff.

Michael
Room was extremely clean,third time we have stayed,a little disappointed with the fish and chips we had on evening,which were very over cooked,(disappointed),we will be back though.
Charlotte
The room was clean. Check in was pleasant although Prosecco a bit flat. The menu offered in the room by the coffee facilities was totally inaccurate and bore no resemblance to the menu in the restaurant. The dishes came with potato but the side dishes were potato based and only one vegetable option -an unbalanced menu. The cod at dinner was badly cooked and inedible. A message was sent to the kitchen but there was no recompense or response. Overall dinner was highly expensive and not good value. The waiting staff were lovely. The cooked breakfast was nice. The house granola was really awful, just powdery oats, inedible. They ran out of yoghurt although they did offer to run to the shop. No smoothie available. If you don’t want a cooked breakfast the continental wasn’t good enough.
For very close to £200 for the night and then £162 for dinner we expected something of a higher quality and left disappointed and will not revisit. The staff members we met were lovely.

Very homey, comfortable and cozy. The beds were comfortable, bathrooms were clean and the water pressure was fantastic. It was a home away from home. We wish we could have stayed longer.

Well appointed town house outside the main hotel building with modern kitchen and bathrooms. Only small negative was the WiFi dropping in and out in usage.
Sally

Kerry

Elizabeth
Charming hotel, ideally situated by the Abbey. Choice of lounges to sit in the evening, loved the decor. It was drizzling so we couldn’t use the outdoor space.
Enjoyed a delicious evening meal in the restaurant and full English breakfast next morning. All staff so friendly and welcoming. Loved the stories of the local area involving pigs, emus and tigers!

Stunning family weekend away!
My family and I had an amazing weekend, we had a small child and 2 dogs with us and everything was great. The lounge area was stunning, this is where we had drinks and breakfast. The Townhouse we stayed in was absolutely stunning and actually looked so much better in person, the photos didn't do the place justice. We will definitely be back!

Sean

Thomas
An oldie but a goodie.
The Ye Olde Bell Hotel is reputed to be the oldest hotel in England. Despite the fact it has been operating since 1220, it offers the same level of service and luxurious accommodation as many of today’s modern hotels have to offer. I would go back in a heartbeat.
Lisa
Quite simply, the perfect place to stay.

Would be perfect with a few tiny tweaks
Great stay, beautiful room (room 1). It was quite noisy as right above the bar, but this quickly died down around 11.30pm. There were a few parties in on our night, so couldn’t eat in the restaurant (offered 6pm, which was too early for us), but plenty of options locally.
Only thing that would make this perfect would be:
Better pillows (they were quite hard and synthetic)
More water in the rooms. A large refillable glass bottle would suffice, instead there were two small cans of water in the mini fridge (one still and one sparkling) for two people. Most pub b&bs have this.
Fresh milk in the room. Again, for the price point of the room, I’d have expected this. Or at least be offered some at reception before being shown to your room. There’s fridges in the rooms so this would be an easy win.
Otherwise, breakfast was phenomenal, all the staff were friendly and helpful. Lovely stay in a beautiful location.
We rode in on motorcycles, and the parking behind the hotel was tucked away enough for us to feel safe leaving them secure.

Stayed in soooo many hotels and pubs around the world, this place, just loved it, and I am very picky. Bet Christmas here is wonderful. The picture is literally next door
Andrew
First class accomodation and customer service.
Eryl
Lighting in the lounges is very poor. Cannot read the magazines and newspapers thoughtfully provided.
A residents lounge would be a good idea. The garden has been covered by yet another building. Totally out of keeping with this old pub.
Loud music being played at breakfast is an intrusion
We have been coming to this hotel for 25 years Such a shame the owners have ruined it.

This excellent and very old hotel began life as a hostel for monks visiting the next door abbey. It has a wonderful old world charm. The staff are universally friendly and helpful. Breakfast is freshly cooked to order and is delicious. Dining is modern British and of very high quality.

We had a fantastic stay, by far the cleanest hotel & room we have stayed in - (& that’s quite a lot!). Excellent food & lovely, helpful staff, Nicole particularly gave top notch service. Very vegan friendly which is hugely appreciated!
Gorgeous hotel & decor. Our cosy room was perfect, not really that small either!
Highly recommend the afternoon tea - we will be back!

Had an amazing stay at the Old Bell Hotel!
It looks deceivingly small from the outside, but actually there is plenty of space to explore once inside.
The hotel has a cosy feel to it and there are a lot of areas to lounge around.
Everyone was welcoming and helpful.
Thank you :)

Friendly staff
The receptionist Jackerine is a cheerful and friendly staff. She helped to fix the lock, informed us directions and always tender cheerful greeting. The restaurant is a lovely one with friendly and helpful staff. I have allergic issue and the staff checked out ingredients and even steps to prepare the food. All good and our lobster dinner was excellent.

Avoid the annex it is not up to standard!
Well it was a very attractive hotel with interesting decor and helpful staff. Food was excellent. BUT the room was pokey,the bed was small ,the double glazed windows had blown and could not be seen through due to condensation. The corridor leading to the room was narrow and claustrophobic. The worst aspect was the parking of cars right outside our window. We did complain but felt too tired and rushed to move rooms. What we would say is the room was not worth the £250 full price. We used our Hotels.com voucher and cynically think that one gets given a poor room in this circumstance.
Raymond
Exceptional hotel. Superb breakfast. Loved the room and cannot fault the faculties or staff. However the parking was problematic at the rear on our visit caused by a car parked in a non-allocated spot (that was reported to reception but still an issue come departure).

Beautiful, interesting historical building. Clean.Friendly welcome.
Room very small with small bed . No mirror in bedroom . Builders onsite . Noisy . Drilling and hammering until 6pm . Centre of town so noisy at night with loud shouting from people in street coming out of pubs. Restaurant very noisy like a school dining room. Inexperienced waiting staff . My husband is in his seventies and we object to being addressed as “ you guys”. Fabulous food but very slow service . Staff apologetic and helpful . Took the drinks off our bill . Offered us more drinks on the house . We paid £255 for one night and it just was not worth it at all . Very disappointed and glad to get home. I do not recommend this hotel .

We stayed for two nights, but had no hot water in the room.
On the second night the hotel gave us access to another room so that we could have a shower, though this was on the floor below and through reception, not really acceptable to have to carry everything just to have a shower.

Lovely little place.
It's a lovely quiant hotel. Our room had a bedroom and a living room. Great service from the bar, with reasonably priced drinks. The bed is so comfy, slept like a log. Staff were helpful and attentive. Really nice hotel will be staying again

A perfect little foodie haven
We had a lovely stay at the Old Bell. From arrival to departure, the staff were all so friendly, helpful and accommodating.
We ate in the restaurant on the first night and the food was exceptional and so hard to make a choice from such an amazing menu that catered so well for those who don't eat meat. I could have happily eaten there all 3 nights of our stay if we hadn't already got plans.
Breakfasts were equally delicious... between us we tried the full English, eggs royale, eggs benedict, avocado & sourdough, pancakes & berries and pancakes & bacon. They were all amazing and we couldn't find fault with any of them! My mouth waters just thinking of them.
Only one little downside was the occasional brief loss of hot water in our room, but frankly it was a minor niggle and everything else was so good, it barely matters.
Would definitely visit again and hope that we do!

Loved the history of the property and the quirky decor. Cocktails were super yummy. Disappointed with the breakfast and service at breakfast. We’re made to wait a long time and had to ask for a lot of things that you would have expected to have received at that type of hotel.
