Overall Ratings & Reviews Burford House

The staff was wonderful. Both meals I had were great. Will definitely recommend and hope to be back some day.

We had a large room with a four poster bed and a huge bathroom with a bath which could have fitted a family of four. The staff were helpful and friendly and breakfast was excellent

Fantastic stay, really enjoyable!

Lovely staff. Room needs an overhaul. Sockets near the bed, better lighting and a more powerful shower would make it 5 star.

We were warmly welcomed by the staff. The room was large and well appointed. The breakfasts were excellent! Parking in the street opposite the hotel was easy later in the day. It was great value and we would definitely stay there again.

I read some of the other reviews. But we have to remember that this hotel is over 300 years old! There’s the odd bits and bobs as you’d expect and to be fair hope for because of its age and character of this building. It’s a lovely place with great staff. The question of would I recommend it. Absolutely 100%.

Rustic four poster room - we get the vibe, but all surfaces had cup marks. No shower and taps leaked. Just needs a bit of money spent to make very good. Property is amazing, also the service. Oil the hinges too please.

Ok, where to start, at £160 a night, we were expecting a 5 star hotel. Staff were friendly, room was cute but soft furnishings and curtains were worn and tired. Bathroom was a bit grim, couple of thick black hairs floating around the place, shower lacking in power and thick with mildew and limescale, shower door hanging off. No phone for reception, no fridge and no general luxuries you’d expect from a 5 star. Hotel not manned at night. Breakfast sausages basic at best, continental part of breakfast basic but fine, no milk alternative but nice man on duty awkwardly offered to “pop to the shop” Day 2, room barely cleaned, bed not made, had to ask for shower gel and a new bath mat. Fruit bowl at breakfast was the same fruit bowl my wife had already picked strawberries and blueberries out of the day before (she’s not keen on melon). We’re trying not to be too disheartened by the hotel, it just feels a bit ridiculous at this point. We would have brought all of this up to staff but it’s a small hotel with the same staff daily and we have to stay another day yet, upsetting staff at this stage didn’t seem the one. Day 3 better room clean today but still not the best, breakfast, unbelievably, was presented with fruit bowl on day 3, remaining strawberries already showing mould. By this point we’ve had enough, we leave as quickly as possible, grossed out by the fruit bowl, we made a complaint to hotels dot com but the hotel were unwilling to make a partial refund, hence review

The hosts were very welcoming and accommodating. The accommodation was a little tired in places a reflection of a very old building. The breakfast was ok, although a little tasteless.

We visited for our anniversary weekend and did enjoy the original features of the property and the location as there are a lot of cafes, pubs and shops close by. However, the room was tired and needed a bit of TLC. The shower had black mould on both heads and luckily there was a bath however the plug didn’t have a chain which meant I needed to prise it open after use. One window was mouldy and the latch was broken so it didn’t close completely. Although our bed was made after our first night, the toilet paper wasn’t refilled and the bath wasn’t cleaned down so my partner couldn’t enjoy a bath that evening. Overall I wouldn’t recommend especially for a special occasion. I also wouldn’t give it a 5* rating. Quite disappointing.

Staff very friendly, rooms quaint, larger than expected; however, beds smaller (double) and rooms a bit warm.

Nice hotel on Burford high street. Comfy 4 poster bed & excellent brea.

Great food and service in the resturant but...the mattress was unfit for purpose, it was so uncomfortable that we didnt sleep much at all and the cleanliness was awful. The hotel needs a lot of attention and updating considering its in Burford high street. The window wouldnt close, all needs repairing, the heating was up too high, the shower needs regrouting, the towels had holes and were ripped. The only good think were the clean bedsheets. We wont be returning due to this!! Not worth the money even for one nights stay!!

The good; the staff was friendly and the included breakfast was delicious! The bad; the rug was old, dirty and quite disgusting, the spare blanket was on the dirty floor in the closet and the shower was very slow draining.

It was in a very central position convenient for wandering around the area. Cosy lobby and eating area. Staff friendly and helpful. No parking at hotel but found free space up side road. Small negatives - floorboard needed fixing under carpet in bedroom, small stain on bedspread, small area of curtain needed hooking up. Would recommend for comfortable stay.

Such a wonderful inn! The town of Burford is a great home base for visiting The Cotswolds. There are coffee shops, bakeries, local stores, antiques, a cute candy shop, a beautiful church and the hotel is a few minutes walk to all of that. The hospitality of the staff was outstanding. The stay comes with breakfast that was delicious and they also serve lunch, dinner, and drinks on the first floor in the restaurant. We stayed down there till 11 pm each night chatting and playing cards like the locals.

Locality to Cotswolds towns and villages, parking immediately opposite no cost, cottage type room with all necessary facilities for a comfortable stay self sufficiently.

Great stay, hotel team were helpful and friendly. Our room was spacious, clean & traditionally furnished (four Poster bed, stand alone bath). A good quality and selection of food was on offer. Particularly enjoyed the bar, which was regularly frequented by locals ( which is in our opinion is always a good indicator). Our room could have done with a little TLC, but nothing that would dampen our stay.

Staff were very nice and accommodating. They even started the breakfast a bit earlier as I have to leave early for work. Room was spacious with antique decor. Only issue was shower head in the bathroom wasn’t working properly but it didn’t bother as there was bath tub as well. Bed was big and comfortable. TV screen was bigger than more big name hotels and was Smart TV and I used my own login details to use various apps. Parking is on the street. Right outside 2 hours free parking available but after 6 it’s free. If you need to park during the day there are some free parking space further down opposite to post office.

Good hotel, comfy bed
