Checked in early evening with no problem, free upgrade to suite on 2 floors with a four poster bed! Some of the complaints in previous reviews seem to expect Premier Inn facilities forgetting that this is a ex-16th century coaching inn and it certainly shows its age, but it is a lot cheaper. Yes, the websites need updating as they still give the impression with photographs that it has restraunt & bar facilities, but it does state they are 'coming soon'. The decor is dated and rather tired but the gentleman who checked us in and was in attendance during breakfast was very helpful.

This is a lovely and really old property with very interesting features. Unfortunately it is not now used to its full potential but was a comfortable place to stay for a night. We had everything we needed even though one or two places could do with updating. Meals, other than a buffet breakfast, are not provided, so it would be necessary to find somewhere else for an evening.

The property was lovely - but sadly in need of repairs- our room was clean and acceptable - we got what we paid for - staff were friendly enough - shame about the overall appearance of what was a beautiful building at some point - the water wasn’t good to drink at all - so advise not to drink

OK for a lay over but don’t expect much

Guy on reception friendly. Car park is across from a very busy road. You take your life in your hands! Building quaint but very run down. Continual breakfast was probably the poorest fare I have ever been offered. Traffic very noisy, no air con so don’t stay in hot weather.

Disappointed that the pub part of the hotel is closed, but advised as open. Very run down such a shame as it could be a beautiful place. Stair way to the room was very smelly. The room was ok but could have been looked after a little more. Bathroom not the cleanest.

Lovely 17th Century Inn, Great Rooms, and Staff.

Our second stay at this lovely 17th Century Inn. Full of character and charm. The rooms are comfortable and clean, and the staff are very friendly and helpful. Good facilities, very good WiFi. It's a very quirky and quant place. Great Value. We have already booked to return.

Lovely room, comfy bed and lovely staff. The pub is no longer open so no food or drink available. Communal areas a bit tired, but lovely dining room for continental breakfast. I took a picnic that I had in the lovely courtyard at I read from reviews the pub part is shut. Very handy for motorways and Bicester Shopping Village.

This hotel could be beautiful but sadly the decor was old and dated the toilet was dirty the shower didn't have hot water the taps were loose. The whole room was filthy. They told us there was a free English breakfast...it consists of Weetabix or toast I paid £111 for one night. Was totally ripped off there are much nicer hotels in the area

Avoid - mould and stained towels

After waiting for 20 minutes for somebody to turn up and check me in, I was shown into a room that had mould and stained towels. The room also stank of smoke. I didn't even stay, immediately left and went to another hotel.

OK for a stopover

OK for our one-night stopover. The room was clean, adequate and comfortable but in need of a bit of TLC. We had to ask for an extra light as it was quite dim! The TV remote was missing. The one member of staff we saw was helpful and friendly, but seemed rushed off his feet.

Good intentions. Lack of investment resources! First impressions: (Superior Double) Having visited many years ago (under different ownership) I was disappointed to see the buildings & surroundings had deteriorated, lacking maintenance. The room was reasonably clean & quiet, with adequate bathroom facilities & plentiful, instant hot water. The room was well facilitated with fan, ironing board, hair dryer, lighting, furnishings etc., but the fridge was not functioning & the weather & room were hot. Thankfully, we carry our own mobile mini fridge & were able to use this in the room. The room smelled strongly of body odour, which we tried to dissipate by opening windows, using the room fan & our own freshener sprays. We rely heavily on WiFi access. Despite being specified, we could not get a connection in the room. The password repeatedly failed, although the QR code worked, but gave very poor intermittent access. Poor, local signal strength provided no mobile data. The TV was problematic, and the lack of WiFi access as a substitute, exacerbated the problem. The one member of staff we encountered was very polite and helpful to a couple of special requests. Despite many years of using hotels, we had always specified "Full English breakfast" and never stayed where only continental breakfast was available, but we were pleased with what was on offer (except for lack of the traditional English marmalade in the jam selection) and we left well sated.

Looked lovely but not a comfortable stay I’m afraid. Mold in the bathroom with hairs everywhere and the carpet on entry to the room, stained and dirty. Bad TV signal but not sure nothing could be done about that. Unfortunately I won’t be staying there again.
