Lovely place.... Comfortable room, great food, welcoming staff including the cleaning staff who are a laugh and easy to chat to.... Thank you and I'll be back!!
Although there is a lot of competition in this upcoming vibrant town the Goddard Arms is still above the rest. Great food, drinks and staff. The manager is also a constant delight.
Really lovely place with great food! Love the new menu!!
The best in Swindon. I recommend this place. And it has rooms that are reasonably priced.
Always a great place to start the night off with friends it was my birthday so was partying hard it just an easy bar always seems a happy place I tend to bump in to people I've not seen in years witch make a great evening, it's friends bar staff, friendly door men, and a clean place.
We found the Goddard Arms very pleasi g they booked us in showed us our room the food was very good didn't have to wait long for it to arrive the staff were very pleasant and room was fine would stay there again
The best fish and chips and quick service I've enjoyed for years!

Was given a gift experience for xmas and we used it for our anniversary, well what can I say, amazing food and fantastic staff! Couldn't have asked for more thank you to everyone at the Goddard arms that made our evening memorable x
Great atmosphere and surroundings. Steve the doorman is such a nice bloke, always welcomes us and is a good friend of my husband. Always found rest of staff very friendly also.
Great atmosphere and amazing staff ππ
We stayed B&B for 1 night,all the staff were very helpful and friendly, the room was clean and tidy and the brekfast we had was second to none.
This has become my new local and other than a pint of coke now costing about Β£4.30, it's brilliant. It has everything you need and want from a pub. The staff are amazing π, the food menu has a good choice and is served quickly. I'm summer they have a large (for old town) beer garden with plenty of space and the ability to order to the table. I end up several times a week and never had a bad experience. In fact I shall be heading there agian today to get so.e work done. There is loads of tables inside so it's nice to get out the house, have a coffee, use the free WiFi and get on with some work.
Went to the pub restaurant for a works do, group of 12 of us but food was all excellent and brought out together. The pub itself was very clean and overall good atmosphere. You also get free parking with a voucher at the bar but staff were very accommodating to extend this for us with us being there for longer than 3 hours. Overall great experience 10/10
It was spacious.
Customer service was wonderful. Smiles all the time and pleasant conversations and gestures from the staff. It was a nice change especially in this current climate of roulette customer service.
You have to pay for parking but if you validate your ticket at the bar after your first purchase, parking will be free.
The food was not as tasty because I enjoy spicy well seasoned food. This was bland but it's just personal taste. I took one star off for this but again it's personal preference.
I didn't stay in the rooms so I cannot comment on it.
I would recommend this place. ;)
Loved this place. The staff were absolutely amazing. Helped with every detail, even when they were off duty. The bar has plenty to offer with a nice place to be. The food menu is adequate, but unfortunately, they dont cater for gluten-free. Room prices were very reasonable. If you're in the area or passing through, it's definitely a place to stay.
Amazing team, great rooms and a wonderful full English breakfast. Would highly recommend, the Lamb Shank on the Specials menu was also fantastic. Quality pint of Tribute too.
The food in this pub is amazing. Staff are friendly, they go above & beyond to satisfy their customers. James and Wendy are excellent host, they are ensuring the customer experience is faultless. I highly recommended the place.
This review is about The Goddard Arms as a restaurant/bar, not about the hotel aspect.
During a recent visit to the UK, I booked a four-person "classic afternoon tea" at The Goddards, for a 45-year reunion of our A level music class: three students and the teacher. We had not been together as a group since summer 1978. It was an important event for us and I asked for a quiet table where we could enjoy great conversation.
The Goddards folks came through. The table was perfect. The food was superb, and far more than the four of us could eat.
I've loved then Goddards for several years, and this tea experience was a new one for me: highly recommended.
Called in for a meal, the lad at the bar called Jack was just lovely, funny and had a nice manner about him. Food was good but the pudding was really nice. Donna was attentive and ran around seeing to everyone. Food good, service from staff π
An enjoyable stay was had at this pub. Even though rooms were dated, they were clean and well sized. Bed was comfortable and a good night sleep was had. Breakfast was excellent and service couldn't be faulted.
Had a long business stay in Swindon, All the staff were very friendly, attentive and professional.. but these ladies are the unsung heroes making sure the rooms were clean and the beds made daily and always with a smile
Thank you all for the fantastic service I look forward to my next stay.
I was not sure what to expect from a pub and hotel in one. I have actually been very impressed. The room had everything you need from a tea/coffee making facilities to a TV. The shower was powerful too. The staff have all been very attentive and friendly. If you need to go to Swindon i would highly recommend this little gem.
Not familiar with Swindon but this was a nice little find. Attentive staff, great food and a lovely atmosphere. Will definitely visit again when we're in the area and wouldn't hesitate to book a room. Looking forward to our next visit.
The wife and I love this place, and enjoy a breakfast in here as a treat. The food is always good, the staff are super nice and the location is ideal for a quick mooch around some local stores.
We always go here for the breakfast, and Sammy always delivers with a friendly smile. The food is lovely and just right and is our weekly treat. Lovely atmosphere and lots of friendly staff.Would highly recommend.
