Room was beautiful, dark and cosy and stylish and very comfortable. Perfectly located for our Bicester Village shopping trip. Restaurant was very nicely decorated. Price of drinks and dinner was a little over priced considering the portion, value and location but ambience was good. Staff were excellent throughout, very clean, will definitely recommend although seperate taps in the bathroom are a big no no and should be changed to mixers.

Great hotel very close to Bicester Village

We chose this hotel as it was close to Bicester village which we were visiting, it looked nice in the photos and the reviews were good. We were not disappointed when we arrived, it was better than it looked in the photos. All of the staff were very polite and helpful and both the evening meal and breakfast were amazing. All in all a lovely peaceful stay less than 10 minutes from Bicester Village.
