Great breakfast menu. Rooms are getting tired and need a refresh. This hotel is in a great location right in the heart of Olney. I have stayed many times before but this time I got an extra noisy room above the pub, not the best.

Only had a very quick stay but impressed with the pub, diner and the room we had, in terms of what it was and cleanliness. Bit expensive though. Staff very friendly, helpful, polite and professional. We’d happily stay there again if we can get a deal. Only thing is pub car park is extremely limited and has half a dozen spaces. However, there is plenty of public spaces around - just need to watch timings but overnight parking seems to be ok.

On opening our room door my wife and I thought nice, however after a while we decided it was not as nice as we thought, lots of cobwebs and cracks in the walls a refurbished is needed. We both had little sleep as in the early hours of the night we heard loud drilling noise as if someone was working nearby. The breakfast was nothing to write home about everything was put on the plate so your toast became soggy and only the middle was buttered, service was poor.

I’ve now stayed here twice, both times lovely rooms, clean warm and very comfortable. Food was good and the staff friendly and helpful. Parts of the hotel need some work and look a little frayed but I’m sure these will be addressed.
