Overall good stay.

The check in was great, this cheerful lady made the process nice and easy, plenty of parking and nice location. There were small parts of the room that weren’t clean to a high standard, and a few damage parts, but overall was a decent size room and comfy bed. Breakfast was nice and the service was great.

Fabulous stay

We stayed at Holiday Inn Express Bicester for a weekend as we were attending a wedding nearby. The staff were all very friendly, from reception to the breakfast room and the lovely ladies cleaning the rooms. Everybody had a friendly smile and were very helpful and professional. The room itself was spacious and clean and the bed comfortable. The breakfast on offer was also very good in my opinion and there was a constant refilling of everything. We would not hesitate to stay again. Well done team Bicester!

Reception were excellent at solving a couple of issues. Firstly we'd incorrectly booked two twin rooms when we needed one of them to be accessible. Reception sorted this out over the phone and ensured we had an accessible room with an adjoining room which made life so much easier. On arrival we had some issues with the car charger, all resolved and compensation provided without us even needing to ask. We've stayed at this Holiday Inn Express before and the quality was excellent as before. Great rooms and a super breakfast. Very helpful staff. Thoroughly recommended.

Great stay overall! The room was spotless and the bed extremely comfortable. It was very quiet, which made for a restful night—aside from one brief interruption when the fire alarm went off. Would definitely stay again.
