As soon as I booked in Bridget made me feel right at home.which as a solo traveller I really appreciated. I observed other staff being friendly and welcoming to customers, not in a way that made them sound as though they had to be like that but because they genuinely behaved like that. The room was a good size very clean and the bed was comfortable. The food I had was good too. All in all an excellent experience with a team being led by a lady passionate about giving quality service Thoroughly recommend a stay here

A place to definitely stay when visiting Swindon.

We had an amazing stay at the Sun Inn. The manager Bridget was very accommodating, welcoming and thoughtful towards our needs. The staff were all friendly and the service was fantastic. The room we stayed in was very spacious, clean and beautiful. We will definitely be going back again.
