Reviews and Ratings
The hotel's location is beautiful, with a lovely walk down to the river creating a picturesque setting. The rooms, while comfortable, are somewhat dated and not luxurious. The dining experience offers plenty of choices but could be improved in terms of temperature and overall quality. The service was attentive, with staff showing genuine interest in guest feedback.
I was quite shocked by the poor condition of the rooms despite the spacious twin room I was given on the ground floor with a view of the Thames. The cleanliness was lacking, the shower room was in bad shape with rust and mold, definitely not what I expected from a 4-star hotel. On the bright side, the location is really well situated and driving to the nearby park and ride was convenient.
I found the hotel to be in a fabulous location, right by the river and with a lovely church nearby. The rooms were a bit small and tight, but overall, the service was exceptional. Dining had its ups and downs, and the facilities were satisfactory. It was a peaceful stay with some minor inconveniences.
The hotel is in a stunning location surrounded by beautiful gardens and a river, making it very easy to get to and offering a relaxing atmosphere. The rooms are bright and airy, though may be too lit up early in the morning for some, with lovely views. The service is top-notch with extremely friendly and helpful staff, although the restaurant food could be described as odd. The dining experience offers an extensive selection of food types, but some aspects like the lack of certain essential items were disappointing. Overall, a wonderful location with a few dining improvements needed.
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were unexpectedly spacious and cozy, complete with bathrobes and slippers, yet there were some issues with stains on the bed linen and mold in the bathroom corner. The service was somewhat lacking as the staff, while friendly and attentive, seemed competitive with each other rather than cooperating. The location, though accessible from the city and offering a lovely atmosphere, had some drawbacks like a damp smell and outdated facilities. The dining options were limited, but efficient, and the facilities were decent overall.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were clean and tidy, and the size was good, though it was a queen room, which could be seen as a downgrade. The service was mostly friendly and welcoming, but there were some issues with the waitress during dinner. The location was great, especially with the wildlife around, and it was just outside Oxford in a peaceful setting. The dining experience had its ups and downs, with some good meals but also some disappointments. Overall, a decent stay with a mix of positives and negatives.
