The rooms at this pub are beautiful (I booked two rooms), very clean and the staff were really helpful. Really good pub, five minute walk into the centre of Banbury. I would definitely recommend it.

This is a really quaint hotel, the rooms are lovely and the staff are friendly, I have stayed twice in the last couple of months when travelling for work. The pub is lovely too serving a vast range of beverages. I would suggest to the property (I haven't asked so not sure if it is an oversight but was the same on both occasions) only 1 towel (although lovely towels) per person and no hand towel, also, a shower mat for inside the shower and a towel for the floor as it is extremely slippery both inside the shower and when you get out.

The room was clean, beds comfy and the staff were very friendly, ideal location for us. It would have been perfect but for fact the room and bathroom were too dark to get ready in. We were unable to sleep due to the immense heat in the room even though the temperature outside had dropped following a heatwave as there is a vaulted ceiling and only a small low window to air the room. My husband resorted to sleeping in the car!

Very friendly staff made us welcome. We were fortunate that live entertainment was on that evening that added to the atmosphere. A simple breakfast is provided in the room. We used the local eateries for our evening meal, most within walking distance. Altogether a lovely stay. Word of warning the pubs ceilings are low, rooms are fine, again adds to the atmosphere but hurts when you forget.

Mmmmm..

Pretty average pub. No breakfast option was disappointing as “we don’t have a kitchen” Room had contact lenses from previous year on the bedside cabinet .. place could have done with a clean tbh. Water only just hot enough for a warm shower.

Lovely welcome to a room refurbished a few years ago. Bed wasnt the most comfortable, but the main issue wsss cleanliness. Pics attached of dirt around the bath. There were cobwebs everywhere, the main light heavily caked in dust. Thee whole thing could do with a deep clean.
