The Blue Boar

Staff and food were excellent

Immaculate room, comfy bed, nice coffee machine, warm & welcoming

This is the first time of travelling both for business and pleasure over 40 years that I have felt the need to review so negatively. Service at dinner and breakfast was painfully slow. This was not helped by the chef, in full view, who at breakfast, was more intent on bantering with his colleague than focusing on getting food out.. Not at all focused. Our breakfast took 35 minutes in what was a very quiet dining room at the time. Poached eggs were appallingly over cooked for our avocado and eggs. Room 17 smelt and felt damp. Very tired and in need of refurbishment at these prices. Very overpriced based on service, quality and comfort. I'm sorry, I'm really unhappy about what we paid for our night away.

A good variety for breakfast options. Location perfect spot as you are easily able to walk out to the shopping area. Bus stop located just outside for trip into Oxford. Lighting in dining room is abit dim. Gives an effective look but for anyone with a visual impairment it makes it difficult to read menu etc. We enjoyed our stay. Perfect for a mini breakaway to attend a wedding locally.

We stayed here for the night as we were going to the Farmers Dog pub for dinner. This is a great pub/restaurant with rooms. We were in the annexe across the court yard. Room was nice with plenty of space . Complimentary water, hot drinks, biscuits, shower toiletries and comfy top quality bedding. The only downside was the shower was a little awkward. Big waterfall shower but fitted a bit close to the taps so in order to be underneath it you had to stand right by the taps over the plug hole and it didn’t flow that fast. But we weren’t too bothered by that as only one night stay. We sat in the bar and had drinks, staff were friendly and polite, nice atmosphere. We had breakfast which was yummy with plenty of choice. Overall a nice place to stay, would stay here again.

Lovely place , clean spacious , comfortable room, nice coffee in room. Breakfast was excellent. Easy and quick check in and out. Right in the middle of Witney so really close to shops and cinema.

Overall very good. However the stay in room 15 Involved a lot of steps! Not good when in your 70s.

The family room was large with air conditioning, very comfortable mattresses and bedding, plenty of good quality towels, shower gel and a body moisturiser in the bathroom and complimentary bottles of drinking water, tea and coffee (machine). The staff could not have been more helpful with our questions and requests. We were allowed to check in earlier (£20 fee). Their pizzas were really good. There was no immediate parking but we managed to find spaces around without a problem. The location is fantastic, right in the middle of Witney town centre, with all the usual shops.

Always stay at the Blue Boar when visiting Witney. Convenient being central. Parking, though not on site, is 3 mins walk away in the Woolgate carpark and free from check in until check out. Breakfast is exceptional - waiter service and chef prepared. Room are simple, but each have an iron and ironing board and hairdryer. Toiletries in bathroom. Aircon in my room much needed as room looked on to main High Street so not really able to open windows. The night I stayed the local council decided to clean the drains during the night. The noise made for a very disturbec night. The hotel were unaware and when i went to reception at 1am they were luckily able to find me another room at the back of the hotel. Had they been full, not sure what could have been done. Price comparison with local chain hotels is a no brainer - this is far better value.

We enjoyed our stay here . The room was clean and just what we needed for the night . The staff were all very lovely, the bar area is great and the breakfast the next morning was excellent .

Beautiful place nice location. Rooms a little tired in places but otherwise lovely place.

This is a lovely central hotel in an old building which has kept its character but with sensible modern restyling

Stayed recently with a couple of friends. Had the best weekend, great central location. 5star breakfast fantastic selection. Amazing staff, extremely friendly and welcoming. Booked up to stay again. Would definitely recommend.

Great location in centre of Witney. Nice bar and restaurant- if a little gloomy for breakfast and seats could do with a bit of attention. Room was basic and looked like it needed a bit if tlc. Bathroom looked like it has or had damp issues and smelt musty. Noisy at night until bar closed as our room was across the courtyard at the rear. Stay was ok but have had better for same price . Not sure we’d stay again.

The room at a glance was tidy but there was a damp smell upon walking into the room. The bathroom extractor fan was not working, bathroom had lots of mould and extremely damp smelling. The room itself was also mouldy in places. The soundproofing was terrible. The next door room decided to watch Jurrasic Park or the likes, and tv must have been at the highest level possible because we could hear everything and subsequently took my son ages to fall asleep. Then at 1am I was woken by some people out on the street bellowing and making such a racket that I lay awake for a few hours. Terrible experience and won't be returning

Very quaint, great atmosphere being a pub downstairs with rooms above. It wasn’t noisy even on the weekend. We had a large room for 3. Breakfast choices were fabulous. The staff in the dining room were extremely nice and helpful. I would definitely return to the Blue Boar.

Great place and great location. Awesome pub down stairs with great dining.

The Staff were helpful, efficient, and very friendly at all times. No request was too much for them. Made my Christmas stay a very pleasant, stress-free, experience.

Hotel was fine and in middle of witney unfortunately they allocated us a Disability room so although a nice size the bathroom didn’t have a wow factor

No parking! Wasn’t told about no parking till the morning of arrival. Had to walk from a public car park and I have mobility issues. Not happy. Very expensive bar.
