A beautiful building just near Banbury Cross with a large carpark. It was only a short walk to the old town and through the shopping centre to the canal We enjoyed a modern well appointed large room with sofa and Smart TV in the main building. It was unfortunate that because we were in a corner there wasn't a view of the beautiful gardens. The dining room was contemporary and did have that view. The menu had something for everyone and the food was delicious and incredibly well priced. Portions were large and service great. A good buffet breakfast was available for a small extra on booking. Overall an excellent value overnight stay.

On the hottest day of the year our room had no fan, and the radiators in the dining room were broken so left on all day - unbearable! No plates at breakfast, no bread for toast, and all the juice had run out over half hour before the end. All in all, a very disappointing stay

Charming historic building with character, but the stay fell short overall. The room was acceptable, though lacking basic comforts (no fan on a very hot day) and minor housekeeping issues (dusty bedside tables). Staff were attentive, but operations felt poorly managed - breakfast was inconsistent, with key items missing and a lack of clarity on what was available. The location in Banbury wasn’t particularly appealing, and access to parking was challenging due to a very narrow entrance. Outdoor areas also appeared poorly maintained. In summary, a beautiful property with potential, but the overall experience wasn’t memorable.

I feel the hotel would benefit from a strict housekeeper. You get the feeling it run on a shoe string .I understand the building is very old ,but the carpets are dirty.The chairs had stains .( Not sure what it was. )Skirting boards were dirty. Shower and toilet badly stained. The breakfast was fine . Plenty to eat. Young staff in the dining room very good.

Best low cost place I have stayed. Boarding on luxury. Well maintained room lots of space for all parts desk,bed ,shower, vanity and toilet. Light and bright hallways and stairs. Quiet, nice size tv (noisy bathroom fan) would be my only complaint. Also great old feel to the reception area and comfortable lounge area. Great breakfast with lots of options. And all at a good price. Walking distance bro other shops and places to eat. Would definitely recommend

The room was basic but spotless. The bathroom toiletries were lovely. Everywhere had a fresh coat of paint and bathroom had recently been resealed everywhere so looked fresh / newly refurbed. Breakfast was in a nice room by the garden and quiet. Food was ok but I didn’t like the sausages. I heard them cooking eggs to order. Car parking was a blessing and staff were very friendly. Pillows could have been less hard. Location was perfect. Overall, a great little place to stay.

Good location but the hotel itself was a bit run down. The bedroom was basic and the tele wouldn’t work. Uncomfortable bed and the pillows like rocks. My bedroom 71 was located directly by an access door to the floor and was noisy up till midnight starting again at 5:00am. Extremely noisy in general with people shouting down corridors in the night. Not a very relaxing experience after a long drive and a busy next day.
