Great location steeped in history
The hotel is located in the middle of Marlborough 's unique High Street. Our room was large by UK standards with a clear view of the high st. The staff are friendly but our room did not get made up after the first night. There is ample free parking but for our visit most of the places were blocked off for a marquee . No alternative was offered.

Grim grim grim
Terrible. Room was dirty and the condition of the furniture was shocking. Headboard looked like it had been clawed by wolves, furniture was cracked and smashed up. Blood stains on the walls. Dirty carpets. The water went off for the day with no warning so I couldn’t flush the loo or wash my hands. I stayed in a hotel in Charlotte once where someone was murdered outside my room. Overall it was a much classier stay than my night in the Castle and Ball and frankly the carpet was cleaner after they took the body away.

Quiet, clean linen. Plumbing could do with some attention although it's it is an old building, tired room, in need of a facelift!!
