About The Old Bell Hotel

Welcome to The Old Bell Hotel at Malmesbury – a luxurious Cotswolds hotel with a cosy bar, outstanding restaurant and individually designed rooms. Our historic building, in the shadow of Malmesbury Abbey, hints at our heritage: we are reputed to be the oldest purpose-built hotel in England.

Since 1220, The Old Bell Hotel has provided refuge for weary travellers. Today our guests still find the sanctuary of a quintessential Cotswolds hotel, where old fashioned values include impeccable service, utter comfort and a focus on the pleasures of eating and drinking. Escape to Malmesbury: whether for a coffee and newspaper on our squashy sofas, dinner in our renowned restaurant or a break in one of our classic rooms, a warm Cotswolds welcome awaits.
