Swindon Great Western vs. Bath RUH

Has anyone had experience with giving birth recently (or know women who had), ideally with both to compare? What has been your experience with quality of care, including postnatal care? I am inclining towards Swindon as they have an attached midwife led birth centre in the same building, and then I have the option to be quickly transferred if anything goes wrong.
Thank you!

I have had 3 csection. None at RUH. One at GW.
I have a 4th at GW end June/ early July.
Out of all 3 sections GW was by far the best!
(Others at Truro, cornwall and Teeside, up north)
The staff were friendly, professional set up etc. After care on ward was great, couldnt fault. I had awful experiences at other 2 hospitals xx

I had my 2nd at Ruh, was fantastic up to the hospital i had my 1st at which was an absolute train wreck. I was left labouring on the ward with an audience, despite pressing the button 4 or 5 times and ignored, think that was the midwife more than anything but i think thats my only gripe. Nurses were helpful, all the MCA's were lovely, food was okay, hospital was clean, id go there again.
