Plently of sockets to charge your devices and good wifi. Spacious but cosy room. Bathroom could do with a light above mirror and hook on bathroom door. ##### ROBERT Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marcus 8 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Really good value for money in a lovely town (village really). ##### Marcus Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Susan 8 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Unique modern room in a great location. ##### Susan Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Natalie 3 Jul 2025 Liked: Amenities The hotel is lovely.

Room was small but enough room to spend a night and was clean and comfortable. Loved the garden out the back and a good range of drinks were available. Cricklade is pretty and would definitely stay here again. ##### ange Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sophie 9 May 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great single room Lovely welcome and great room- perfect for solo travellers at a reasonable price. ##### Sophie Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ingibjorg 22 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Very friendly host, dinner in their restaurant excellent. Can tell food is made from scratch. Lovely flavours, both the slow cooked beef brisket and the chicken curry. Room was immaculately clean, nice thick towels and soft bedlinen. I have managed branded and non-branded hotels so can tell when a room is clean. ##### Ingibjorg Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### kim 21 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### overnight stay Lovely overnight stay at The Vale.

The place was clean, but many issues that did not make the stay great. Many light switches not working, light on top of stairs not woking (HS issue). No door on toilet, lack of personal privacy for us and bed way too small and room very small. Check in times are very strange, no breakfast. They were 4 in a bed winner with previous managers. Defenitely not now. ##### Johan Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Alma 17 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Pity about the roadworks! The room was fine for the price. Parking was on the street behind a short walk away. The exit was down a narrow spiral staircase, quite scary with a suitcase. My stay was ruined by the roadworks right outside the bedroom window, they stopped digging at 10pm! Unfortunate timing. Noisy traffic too. ##### Alma Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dennis 7 Mar 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Great location ##### Dennis Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Paul 22 Jul 2025 Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Awful Terrible place, will never use the vale or hotels.com again ##### Paul Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jeremy 30 May 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great stay Very good place for the price.
