From a value perspective, this location was excellent. Breakfast was provided, rooms were comfortable and there was a Harvester restaurant across the parking lot which worked out well when we arrived back after a long and exhausting day. The location is perfect if you are visiting Oxford, Cambridge, Bletchley Park and surroundings. Staff were wonderful!

The hotel is very good for a business or short family stay. The rooms are quite large with good air conditioning for the summer months. The breakfast has a good variety but the coffee machine was a bit problematic. There is a Harvester across the car park which is convenient if you don't want to drive on anywhere. I will go there again,.next time I am in the area.

We had a lovely stay. The room and bedding’s were clean. Staff was helpful. The breakfast was delicious but the same menu everyday which did get tiring after a while. Only issue was the sound from the Aircon which kept going off and on through the night. Other than that we’ll definitely be coming back when we’re in the area

Breakfast is carnage on a weekend. Staff worked hard to clear tables and replenish the food. However the food area is far too small to cope comfortably with the number of people.

Lovely friendly staff, bar ran out of a lot of drinks. Breakfast was pretty good, a selection of hot and cold. Handy having a harvester restaurant opposite that you could walk to. Good location with plenty of parking. The rooms were very quiet, we didn't get woken early in the morning by noise, which was lovely. Rooms were well equiped with iron, ironing board hair dryer and the bathroom had Dove shower gel and shampoo. The hotel is a little tired in parts, but generally its clean and comfortable and is good value for money, would definitely stay again.
