The Railway Inn

The hosts were lovely, and the check-in was fast. The room was clean and warm, and the bed comfortable. Sadly there was occasional noise coming from the road nearby and the trains passing by. Overall it was good.

Cleanliness not to a high standard, food nice but also noises

I was on the top floor so the water pressure for the shower was poor. Food was lovely: evening meal and hot breakfast. Right next to the railway line so if you are a light sleeper then take some ear plugs. Room was tired but clean. Bed was comfy. Small TV Ample parking. Would I stay again? Yes, but ask not to be on the top floor. Hopefully the shower is better on a lower floor.

Hi Expedia, First, I'm not sure how you added this property to your prestige e-commerce. The amount I paid for one night's stay is not worth it. The receptionists displayed terrible behaviour; they had pets and smelled all around the bar, dining, and reception area. We went to break fast at 9:05 a.m., and they said it was closed. Not even a single customer was there, but there was no courtesy to ask for coffee or any flexible, continuous breakfast. Imagine, this 2 km/3 km surrounding hotel has no local shop or convenience store to buy. I leave the place without any food or coffee (cover breakfast). Also, she showed her face, which we could not tolerate, and complained to us, "You guys bring outside food without asking permission from us." Firstly, the dining place smelled of pets, and how was she expected to eat? Secondly, there was no food or restaurant after 9pm/9:30pm. Last night, I saw many others bring pizza and other foods to their rooms and open the balcony, too, but still, she raised questions to us. The hotel management should have declared or told us that no outside food was allowed while checking in or booking a reservation with the Expedia portal, but they surprised us by not providing food choices and by not having a food corner within 2 km of this property. There was no proper shower water supply (I complained multiple times), and the towels had a urine-like smell. I don't know how Expedia added this property to your e-commerce.

The location was ideal as it enabled me to easily attend our family celebrations.

Very nice pub and hotel. Love the location right next to the trian tracks.

The B&B is next to a train station the main line to Oxford the trains Where every 20mins throughout the night the noice wasn’t good the main road was also close and from 6am it was busy with traffic. The room was okay pillows where rock hard and the shower room needed a good clean and there was yellow slime around the bottom of the shower tray have a video of required the sink was dirty . They don’t cater for gluten free guests.

Very friendly landlady, she pointed out the places that we were planning to visit. The breakfast was great.

This was a basic hotel with basic pub grub. Very uncomfortable pillows and I had a terrible night as my room was so noisy. It is right on the railway station, and although the trains were not such an issue with a room at the back, the main road most certainly was! I hardly had any sleep. The breakfast was measly. On the plus side, the staff were lovely and the landlady Pauline was very kind and accomodating above and beyond.

What a lovely place! The owners are lovely and the food was amazing and very well priced, definitely going to be staying again when I’m back in the area

Railway memorabilia was of interest; a broken chain on the wash hand basin plug was annoying. There were no instructions for finding the property which was difficult. The property was actually in Culham and not Abingdon

Great value for money.

Will not stay here again.

Helpful friendly host. Overall a good stay and would use this accommodation again.

Brilliant, lovely stay, friendly staff and owner

Friendly host. Location very quiet Pub and accomodation very dated but clean. Ok for one night.

Why stay in a bland hotel chain when you can stay here where there are really friendly people, the food is good and the room clean and comfortable?

Really nice old school pub/Inn right next to the railway station with a long long history, not a poncey gastro pub, a proper old school pub. Really nice staff and really good prices, food was great, locals that I met were all very nice, room was cracking. Quite a few trains go past as you would imagine, but I didn’t find them an issue and slept fine with the window open, they get fewer and fewer the later it gets. I will definitely be booking this one again. This would suit anyone travelling for work, anyone wanting to discover some UK history, train buffs or spontaneous explorers.

Nice comfy bed and a decent size room. Could do with a fridge though. Breakfast was delicious, but they had no vegan options. I may stay here again, but only if the price drops. It’s too expensive for what’s on offer. I’d really like to see a fridge in the room. It makes all the difference.

Very poorly maintained tired unloved property. Hair in my dinner. Mould on the kettle tray in my room.
