Positives: great golf course, food was very nice Negatives: Breakfast and dinner service in the restaurant was very poor, lots of staff in a nearly empty restaurant who on numerous occasions ignored us. Hotel rooms are very old fashioned, lock on the bedroom door was faulty so couldn't lock it at night and the bedroom window was left open and wouldn't close so left it open for our stay! In need of a refurbishment in the main building. less

This hotel is tucked away in Blunsdon but worth finding. Neat, tidy and clean, with plenty of parking. There are two places to eat, light bites in the bar, or a carvery in the main restaurant. Wouldn't say the food is wonderful but it is value for money. The restaurant staff were extremely nice and helpful but couldn't say the same for the young lady in the bar. When ordering our first coffee, she had to finish a yawn before answering my request!! Maybe she felt she should be paid to get up that morning !! Wouldn't stop me returning though as it's just far way from Swindon to be quite. less

Our school held the Year 11 Leavers Prom at Blunsdon House Hotel. Communication with the events team was brilliant and queries were always answered very swiftly. They also managed to handle last minute changes on the day with no fuss. In our package DJ, decor, professional photographer, welcome drinks and a 3 course meal or buffet were included in the price. This made organising the event a really smooth process and a lot less hassle than organising entertainment separately. On the day the venue was prepared for us including decor and all special requests we had were laid out for us. It looked beautiful.The evening was brilliant and we couldn't fault the set up or service at all. The food was also fantastic. The entertainment included in the package was of a really high quality - everyone loved the DJ and the photographer was a great addition to capture the night. I would highly recommend Blunsdon House Hotel for any event as they went above and beyond to make our night special for staff and students alike. less

ours was a birthday and anniversary night away and choose this hotel is it was fairly close to friends we were visiting the following day. first impressions were fine when we drove up to the hotel and the room in the pavilion building was as expected and the balcony is lovely to sit on in the evening particularly in the hot weather. It was quiet in the pavilion but a large wedding party was in the main building. we were slightly disappointed that our special occasions we were celebrating had not been acknowledged by the hotel at all despite notes being put onto the booking. we go away for our anniversary every year to various chain hotels and always have lovely acknowledgement, such as petals on the bed or strawberries, etc. room and grounds we well presented and kept clean. the pool and leisure area was ok and pleased that it is adults only after a certain time. although facilities are quite small, being provided with towels was good. The golf course was very dry and quite dusty and needed a little tlc but the hot weather hasn't helped this so not too much that the grounds person can do. we used carries bar and ate in there, although a little bit of a wait for a sandwich which we put down to the large wedding party having their wedding breakfast at the same time this was good and drinks prices are reasonable for a hotel. What let the hotel down for us was the Flames restaurant; our evening meal was returned as the side dishes were cold, but this was rectified quickly (but no apology) and the meals were full of flavour so assumed it was a busy Saturday night and the chef was under pressure. Breakfast however was a shambles as the kitchen appeared under staffed and possibly the same chef on in the morning that was on shift the evening before. he could not keep up with demand and wasnt replenishing hot food until it had completely run out which with the delay of cooking times made it impossible to get a full cooked breakfast. when we did get scrambled eggs this had a lot of shell in it so wasn't pleasant. fruits and juices we not refilled all the time either. we ate at 9am and restaurant was due to shut at 10am so not as though we were the very last in. this was extremely disappointing as booked bed and breakfast as extra. less
