Lovely stay in a very cozy, quaint hotel. Beds were comfy and it was very quiet. Staff all friendly and helpful. Only negative is the room was too hot. Good value for money

I was visiting with family. I’d requested a ground floor room because of mobility issues, which was accommodated. The single room was cosy and comfortable. Nice walk in power shower with multiple heads and great selection of complementary shampoo, conditioner and body wash. I ate in the restaurant four times notwithstanding the breakfast time. The menu is varied and reasonably priced given the high quality of the food which seemed to be cooked to order. Similarly the breakfast menu was varied and is cooked to order while there is a self service continental menu. The members of staff were friendly and accommodating throughout my stay. Special mention to charming Lesley, the attentive Joshua and Vicky in the restaurant and best wishes to Jo in her fundraising as she trains for the London Marathon for a deserving cause

Lovely building in the centre of Oundle. It’s probably due a bit of refurb TLC but overall good value and lots to like. Lady on check in was excellent. Makes such a difference

Had a lovely stay but the staff could have been bit friendlier/more helpful and the room was a little lacklustre. Extraordinary history to the building though. Something missing though. A lack of joy somehow. Great breakfast though and dining staff fab.

Loved everything about this hotel. The history, the elegant room with an incredibly comfortable bed and powerful shower. The food was great and every single staff member we met was helpful, knowledgeable and very friendly. Would highly recommend staying here.

We had a lovely short stay at The Talbot. Rooms were clean and spacious, equipped with all the facilities needed for an overnight stay. The bedside book by local author was a lovely touch. The breakfast was extensive, and plenty of options for vegetarian and vegan guests. It would have been nice to have a vegan pastry option but great that a full vegan breakfast and condiments were on the menu. Waiting and reception staff were polite, kind and extremely helpful. My only complaint was that the bed in my room was uncomfortable (this wasn't the case for other guests). The mattress seemed lumpy and the bed base could be felt through the mattress, meaning I had a poor night's sleep. Aside from this, I could not fault the hotel staff and facilities, hence the 5 star review. Thank you for a very pleasant stay!

New bathroom, excellent value and work stay again.

Room clean and tidy, looks like a new bathroom was installed and was in excellent shape. Roll top bath, powerful shower and bed was pretty comfortable. Would definitely recommend. Didn’t stay for breakfast but used Beans a local cafe which I have been too several times.

Lovely old coaching inn, but had to listen to the noise of the hotel generator all night as the old window in our room wouldn’t shut. After a sleepless night, we waited ages at breakfast, then reminded them we still hadn’t received our food. So we got a lukewarm offering that had obviously been forgotten about and congealed, so had to wait again for them to recook it. Not a great stay and expensive at that. Will be pursuing a refund.
