Delightful hotel in the rural area of Bicester. We were pleasantly greeted and the room was exceptionally clean and modern. Lovey power shower and a comfortable bed with in-room amenities including a safe and a capsule coffee machine. The room itself overlooked a beautiful garden and lawn area. Dining options looked nice with options for non-veg and vegetarians. Bicester shopping village and the village centre is only 5 minutes away by car and, similarly, links to the M40 motorway. All in all a great stay with tremendous customer care.

A Beautiful Oasis 5 mins Bicester Village
Lovely hotel, very clean and modern contemporary. Staff everywhere were wonderful. Tucked away in a very quiet location with views over countryside yet just 5 min drive to Bicester Village. Beautiful outdoor areas sadly too wet and cold for us to use. Restaurant was very good, food excellent service impeccable and reasonably priced. Special thanks to Rosie in particular. Would most certainly return.

Nice hotel, bad service and no facilities
The hotel is quite nice but the service is not good, zero flexibility and absence of a receptionist. They serve breakfast between 7 and 10 AM but I had to leave at 7.15 to go to work, so I asked if I could have some breakfast at 6.50. Before even checking, the receptionist said that it was not possible. When I checked out in the morning at 7 nobody was at reception and nowhere to be found. Also, the evening of my stay the brasserie was closed even though I received a “welcome” email on the same day talking about the food served at the brasserie. Around the hotel there is literally nothing so I asked the receptionist what to do, she said to order Uber Eats and that she would have provided a tray and cutlery. Uber Eats in that area has literally nothing decent to offer, had to order some fast food and when it arrived at the hotel, the receptionist was again nowhere to be found so no tray and cutlery.

We are glad that you liked our hotel, but are sorry about your experience. We did contact all of our guests via email or telephone to notify them that our restaurant would be closed for this particular date due to essential work being carried out. Regarding the "welcome" email, these are sent automatically. Again many apologies!

Nice hotel! Love it! No aircon but there is fan and you can open the window! The air is quite fresh and cold at night so you surely won’t need an aircon. Great bed too! Heated bathroom! Awesome!
