Just give it a wide berth!
The mould on the shower ceiling aggravated my asthma and gave me a chest infection. I had to leave this place mid stay due to the health problems it was causing me. Awful bed, not clean, they wouldn’t provide any kind of refund via Hotels.com. I will be reporting this place with the pictures I took to the authorities after the festive period.

Nice little place. Nothing fancy at all but the staff were very friendly and the beer was nice. Room was super basic, but was also super cheap so to be expected. Bed was comfortable enough. Would stay again if it I was on my own.

This hotel is amazing!!!! It has so much personality, great staff, a wonderful pub to go to where one can enjoy a great dinner, other great places to go to within walking distance. And it's right next to a bus stop so it is possible to go further off and just come back in the evening. This was such a fantastic experience, and I can't wait to go back to Highworth and The Saracen's Head Hotel!!!!

It is a lovely inn with two bars, the choice of food on the menu is very good, it was served piping hot, and good portions. The hotel is in need of an upgrade the mattress was soft and saggy. The room faced onto the high St and was subject to traffic noise, one of the pull down blinds was broken and did not pull up. But for the price paid it was ok

Nice stay again.
Old and querky hotel, very reasonable price and we have stayed here a few times. Bed was quite comfortable and the shower was excellent. A full English breakfast is an extra cost but well worth it. We also ate there on the Saturday evening, and although they were busy, they still managed to find us a table, it was very good food.

Old but good.
The Saracens is old but has character, the staff were very good and the food was brilliant (Chardonnay very nice too!) The stairs were a bit steep and beds a bit narrow. Not expensive, don't do breakfast but a few doors away lovely café did! A pleasant stay.
