Hotel The Polebarn (Trowbridge, United Kingdom)

Full of character all the way through, this old-style hotel has some dynamic features that are impressive. The bathrooms are fully renovated and modern. The rooms are clean and the sleek brick arched cellar restaurant is really cool. Original wooden sash windows are beautiful and a great complement to the overall décor. If you prefer smaller, original accommodations with great features and character, you will enjoy this hotel. However, there is no double-glazing, but that can be expected from older properties.

The staff is friendly, helpful, and full of knowledge about the history of the hotel. The family is really dedicated to keeping the nostalgia of the place. You feel welcomed and the staff and owner makes sure that your needs are reasonably met. You can easily walk through the town, so the location is in a comfortable position.

Rooms are comfy and well maintained. You are able to come and go as you please with your own key. The breakfast is superb and there are plenty of places in the area to dine and shop

The hotel stairway is grand and lovely; however, climbing them is another story. If you have a problem climbing stairs, this hotel may not be for you.

You might find the pillows and mattress too soft. Then again, this is a matter of preference as well.

Watching television in your room can be a strain on your eyes, even if you have good eyesight, as the TV is so small. It's more on par with a PC size screen.
