Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Really impressed with Village Hotel, Swindon. I've stayed in Village Hotels before and they've been good but this was next level. From the moment of arrival to departure, I felt valued and well attended to. The young staff all had a great attitude and couldn't do enough for us. The facilities were all in good order and very clean. It was obvious that this hotel was very well managed from behind the scenes and gave the impression of a much higher cost accomodation.

Yikes….. we chose this hotel as it was super cheap but this really freaked me out. First of all the check-in lady was very sweet. It’s one of those help yourself go punch in your name & get your key - but there’s a lady there to help. It’s all very modern downstairs with a Starbucks & a restaurant then when we went upstairs in the lift. we honestly felt like it looked like a prison…. Barely lit. The hallway was horribly decorated- the designer should be fired - browns and odd colors which made the place look dingy & not practical because people came out the room & bang the walls and doorways, and so there was lots of chipped woodwork. Which you really noticeable The room was the same - large, but not cozy not comfortable. But we got a really cheap deal so I can’t really complain. We did eat at the restaurant and the food was OK

My wife and I stayed overnight at the Village Swindon as part of a cycle ride from Scotland to Rome for ARL2R From start to finish, we’re were hugely impressed with the service and facilities at the village for going the extra mile. My wife and i are frequent travellers and when staying in the UK, my preference is always a Village hotel. The village brand is consistently good with nice size and well equipped rooms, good food, great gym and spa facilities, a Starbucks and plenty of parking and Swindon is no exception. However, the best part of our visit to this hotel was the friendly and professional staff. From the reception team (Matt and Sarah?) who looked after us when we arrived and continued to help us get organised for a long day on the bike in very unpleasant weather. At breakfast, Wendy went out of her way to ensure we had everything we need before we started on a leg of our journey and couldn’t have been more helpful if she tried… Fantastic service and a real credit to the village brand. Kim downing (DOS) and Jayne Knowles (management team) greeted us and went above and beyond to ensure we were well supported for our journey. All in all, a top notch experience at the village once again and and will most certainly return in the future
