Trendy, great ambience. Nice place

We stayed here for the night as we were going to the Farmers Dog pub for dinner. This is a great pub/restaurant with rooms. We were in the annexe across the court yard. Room was nice with plenty of space . Complimentary water, hot drinks, biscuits, shower toiletries and comfy top quality bedding. The only downside was the shower was a little awkward. Big waterfall shower but fitted a bit close to the taps so in order to be underneath it you had to stand right by the taps over the plug hole and it didn’t flow that fast. But we weren’t too bothered by that as only one night stay. We sat in the bar and had drinks, staff were friendly and polite, nice atmosphere. We had breakfast which was yummy with plenty of choice. Overall a nice place to stay, would stay here again.

The family room was large with air conditioning, very comfortable mattresses and bedding, plenty of good quality towels, shower gel and a body moisturiser in the bathroom and complimentary bottles of drinking water, tea and coffee (machine). The staff could not have been more helpful with our questions and requests. We were allowed to check in earlier (£20 fee). Their pizzas were really good. There was no immediate parking but we managed to find spaces around without a problem. The location is fantastic, right in the middle of Witney town centre, with all the usual shops.

Always stay at the Blue Boar when visiting Witney. Convenient being central. Parking, though not on site, is 3 mins walk away in the Woolgate carpark and free from check in until check out. Breakfast is exceptional - waiter service and chef prepared. Room are simple, but each have an iron and ironing board and hairdryer. Toiletries in bathroom. Aircon in my room much needed as room looked on to main High Street so not really able to open windows. The night I stayed the local council decided to clean the drains during the night. The noise made for a very disturbec night. The hotel were unaware and when i went to reception at 1am they were luckily able to find me another room at the back of the hotel. Had they been full, not sure what could have been done. Price comparison with local chain hotels is a no brainer - this is far better value.

Average at best

Great location in centre of Witney. Nice bar and restaurant- if a little gloomy for breakfast and seats could do with a bit of attention. Room was basic and looked like it needed a bit if tlc. Bathroom looked like it has or had damp issues and smelt musty. Noisy at night until bar closed as our room was across the courtyard at the rear. Stay was ok but have had better for same price . Not sure we’d stay again.

The room at a glance was tidy but there was a damp smell upon walking into the room. The bathroom extractor fan was not working, bathroom had lots of mould and extremely damp smelling. The room itself was also mouldy in places. The soundproofing was terrible. The next door room decided to watch Jurrasic Park or the likes, and tv must have been at the highest level possible because we could hear everything and subsequently took my son ages to fall asleep. Then at 1am I was woken by some people out on the street bellowing and making such a racket that I lay awake for a few hours. Terrible experience and won't be returning

Very quaint, great atmosphere being a pub downstairs with rooms above. It wasn’t noisy even on the weekend. We had a large room for 3. Breakfast choices were fabulous. The staff in the dining room were extremely nice and helpful. I would definitely return to the Blue Boar.
