This central Marlborough High Street location places guests within a two-minute walk of St Peter's Church and the High Street's boutiques and eateries.

Five en-suite rooms above the pub each have private bathrooms, free WiFi, and work desks. Room designs vary, with some Deluxe King Rooms featuring a separate bathroom level with a roll-top bath or low ceilings that add to the building's character. The hotel offers secure storage for bicycles overnight, a practical addition for cyclists exploring the Savernake Forest trails.

The Green Dragon's bar serves an award-winning real ale selection, including locally sourced ales, alongside a menu of home-cooked British cuisine.

The coffee house on site and snack bar provide additional options for lighter bites and hot drinks throughout the day.
