Premier Inn Swindon North

The hotel’s rooms all feature a king-size Hypnos bed and a comfortable chair (twin rooms have a double bed and a chaise longue/sofa bed), a writing desk, flat-screen television, tea and coffee making facilities and an en suite bathroom. All rooms have free Wi-Fi wireless internet access (up to 1GB per day).

The hotel also features a pub (the Cold Harbour), which has a menu of British pub classics as well as a great selection of beer and wine. The adjoining pub is in an 18th-century building with a great atmosphere that is much better than most pubs that you find attached to Premier Inns.

Premier Inn is the largest hotel chain in the United Kingdom and it usually scores very high on customer surveys when compared to other UK hotel chains. It operates at the budget end of the market and provides a reasonably high standard of accommodation for the price, and is comparable to ibis and Travelodge hotels.

The hotel is in a quiet location with easy access to the Blunsdon Bypass (A419) on the northern outskirts of Swindon. It is around 6.5km (4 miles) north of the town centre, which is around a 15-minute drive or a half-hour bus ride away (local bus route 16 stops outside the hotel).

Other than the pub next door, there is very little of interest in the immediate neighbourhood.

The hotel has free on-site parking and easy access to the A419 so it is a good option if you’re driving.
