Nice hotel just needs a little tlc

I have stayed there a few times its a lovely old hotel full of character and is very close to the high street.

Nice hotel friendly staff

Good value for money for an overnight stay

.

The hotel is well situated in the city, with walkable restaurants and a nice large park at the rear. The neighbourhood can get a little rough, with police being called to disturbances on the street outside frequently during our stay. Where the hotel especially fell down was when someone had vomited on the steps of the side entrance, and the staff didn't clean it up at all during our 4 day stay. So we didn't feel that comfortable there as a family, especially during the evenings.

I enjoyed my stay. The Hotel was close to town, so was able to walk there. Breakfast was okay, the bar area and lunch were very good.

A warm welcome & the room was comfortable. Bedding & towels lovely, but carpet could have done with a vacuum. Food was great & staff lovely.

Room okay, breakfast very good. Staff made us welcome 👍👍

Room was very warm only small fan, clean room. Staff were very friendly and helpful , food was great, bar needed more choice of drinks. would def stay again.

Could do with aircon in the rooms. Otherwise a pleasant stay and in great location.

What a lovely old building. Loads of character and good outdoor seating area too. Breakfast was good with plenty of choice. I had to ask for soap dispensers to be filled. That should have been checked but they remedied it quickly. I would stay again.

Last minute booking, stayed for 3 nights and was not disappointed. Place of character and charm. Check-in staff member was extremely helpful and considerate with view of allocating a room that met the physical disabilities and needs associated of the person accompanying me. Room was large, clean and functional. Stayed during heat wave and a fan was supplied without having to request one. Staff greeted us in the mornings on arrival for breakfast and were accommodating. Handy for all amenities as situated centrally in Banbury Plenty of choice with breakfast. Hotel situated in beautiful grounds, very picturesque. Plenty of car parking which was a necessity when choosing a venue for us. Would definitely recommend and would love to stay here again

Breakfast was poor. All the cooked items looked unappetising. Skin on baked beans, greasy badly cooked bacon. Croissants hard

Stay each year Lovely stay and really clean rooms Comfortable beds and great service Great breakfast and staff nothing is any trouble Thank you for a wonderful stay again Whately hall great stuff 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Nice

Excellent stay would definitely return, staff really helpful asked for some bread for toast and the staff went and toasted it for us and brought it to table, great service

WiFi absolutely awful. Rooms are dilapidated, even the refurbished ones, stains on curtains, handle feel off the bathroom door. The hotel has an eerie feel. It was pretty scary getting in the loft that had seen better days. The rooms were unbearably hot and no air conditioning, wasn’t worth the money and we bookies for the character, but it’s a run down hotel that needs fully closing and refurbishing.

Room was comfortable, and so was the bed. Bedroom doors are designed to self-close with a thud, so you are disturbed while trying to go to sleep and again early in the morning. Breakfast sufficient but unremarkable. Quite wide variety of tea, but only Earl Grey (which I don't like) and decaff among "real" teas, all the others being peppermint, green, lemongrass, various flowers, etc.

The room was hotter than a sauna, impossible to sleep. It had obviously been very hot for a long period heat emanated from everything even the bed and pillows. Didn't sleep at all and ended up sleeping in the car.
