Excellent and we have no hesitation recommending the hotel and restaurant.
Pros:

The comfort, cleanliness, staff and restaurant were all excellent. Location was good to explore the area. Do not assume you have dined at the best Indian restaurant in the World until you have tried the Snooty Mehmaan. The staff and service were exceptional putting most 5 Star Hotels to shame.

Cons:

The only thing we didn't like was the 50mph speed of the A420 road going past the entrance to the hotel. This is not the hotels fault. The local council should reduce the speed of the road in that section to make exiting the hotel carpark less exciting.

Very relaxing place to stay with a splendid restaurant
Pros:

Very comfortable room, air-conditioning was very welcome after a busy working weekend in high-20s heat!

The restaurant is excellent, too. Had a splendid meal on the evening I arrived and a very enjoyable breakfast the next morning. Staff were extremely kind and helpful, would definitely stay here again.

Cons:

Nothing, very pleased I’d chosen this hotel.

Fantastic!
Pros:

Everything was top-quality. The hotel made sure my room was cool for when I arrived (in a UK heatwave), the room was clean and the bed very comfortable, I loved the walk-in shower with plenty of room, the breakfasts were absolutely delicious and not too greasy. I also appreciated having a large bottle of Evian free in my room when I arrived. I appreciated this kind of attention to detail. The staff were unfailingly helpful and friendly and I would definitely recommend this hotel.

Cons:

There was nothing I didn't like.

Verzorgd en net hotel vlakbij Oxford. Ruime keuze aan gerechten in het restaurant.
Pros:

Vriendelijk onthaal, heel nette en ruime kamer met goede airco, op 15 minuten rijden van een park&ride in Oxford.
Ruime keuze aan Indische en Aziatische gerechten in het restaurant. Ontbijt was verzorgd en er kon zelfs een typisch Indisch ontbijtgerecht gekozen worden.

Cons:

Kamer aan de achterzijde had enkel een velux raam waardoor je geen zicht op buiten had, maar je had dan ook geen last van straatlawaai, want het hotel ligt aan een drukke baan. Er was een brandwerende deur tussen de badkamer en de slaapkamer die nogal luidruchtig dichtklapte.

Pros:

Fabulous hospitality. On arrival we were greeted and helped with our bags to our room. Ali then gave us a full introduction to the room. Free on site parking. Very comfortable bed and very quiet. Breakfast was by menu your choice of a cooked brrakfast. The quality was excellent. Great value for money . We so appreciated the air conditioning.

Cons:

We liked everything and would stay again. The property is not in town so you probably need a car.
