Property looks lovely from outside, internally it is very tired and in need of refurb, it’s a diamond in the rough. Spoke to a few local people who know the place and worked here over 30 years ago and told us it’s never been touched since they were there!
The outside of the hotel looks nice.
The room smelled. There was a background smell of mustiness and age, partly masked by bleach and cleaning products, but still very noticeable underneath. It wasn’t pleasant.
The furniture looked as though it had been bought from a clearance-house auction for £1. Nothing matched, there was no real sense of décor or style, and for £130 for one night we expected considerably more.
Most frustratingly, the room looked nothing like the photographs we had seen online. The difference was so stark that we genuinely felt misled.
The whole place felt like a time capsule from the late 1980s or early 1990s. I half expected Jeremy Beadle to spring out of the wardrobe and tell us we’d been set up.
We couldn’t find anyone in a position of authority. The lady on reception was pleasant, but unfortunately wasn’t able to resolve our concerns. Other staff tried to help, but nobody seemed to have the authority to actually deal with the problem. We even waited in the bar hoping a manager might appear. Nobody did.
The bar prices were ridiculous too. £17 for a pint of draught beer and a gin with soda. For a moment I thought I’d somehow ended up in Dubai.
Breakfast was another low point. I’ll simply say that cracking open one of the boiled eggs from the continental buffet is an experience I’d rather forget.
We genuinely tried to make the best of the stay because Chipping Norton itself is lovely, but this hotel is not representative of what the town has to offer.
The one positive was that the sheets and bedding were clean.
My recommendation: stay somewhere else. Even the Premier Inn around the corner would be a better option, and I genuinely can’t believe I’m having to say that.
Good location
Parking difficult
Everything was great !
Nothing!
Great location staff were very friendly and the room was very clean

It was very clean in our room and around the hotel .
Our bathroom smelt very musty . It was clean but no air could get into it as no windows apart from in the main bedroom. The WiFi was not good . Could only watch itv which still kept losing connection. The breakfast on offer wasn’t good . Would have loved a proper cooked breakfast, considering the price of staying there you’d think breakfast would be included. But £9.00 for a bowl of cereal selection of bread , cakes and fruit was not worth it .
Excellent
Nice and clean room but dated needs updating

It was very quaint. The staff ad Linda were top notch.
The beds are to hard. Didn’t like the three flights of stairs. A lot for someone pushing 70
The four poster bed was splendid, a real nice touch to match the quirkiness of the property. Staff were friendly and helpful, to receive chocolates and prosecco in celebration of our wedding anniversary was a lovely touch. The bar was fully stocked with friendly bar staff. Good parking in the rear courtyard.
The only real downside was a damp smell from the bathroom, perhaps from the shower curtain set up needs reviewing as the smell was overpowering.
