This is an ancient inn so won't be perfect but the pub and garden and bar are charming. My ensuite room was very comfortable with tea and coffee and nice soaps and linens. Inn is in the middle of Faringdon and a good place from which to explore.

Quaint, quirky coaching in with fab food and rooms
excellent restuarant and food. Breakfast was excellent interms of quality and freshness of produce. e.g eggs free range with bright orange yolks, backon looked dry cured and no white foam, everything exceptionally done. Also dined for evening in Ballroom resturant we had Crispy belly pork and summer salad with flank steak, again exceptional.

1 night stay en route to the South coast
There was an unpleasant smell on the landing which led to the room. The room was small and very basic, the shower was lukewarm at best and produced a slow trickle of water It was not worth the amount of money we paid , maybe if the cost of the room was around £60 the standard and quality of the room may have been more acceptable

OK, but disappointing.
We enjoyed the evening meal. The staff were great. The room (room 1) was OK but it was at the front of the property and didn't have double glazing so we got a lot of noise from the market place and a busy bus stop right outside. The breakfast choice was disappointing - no cereals, fruit, yoghurt or croissants - the only choice was the hot, cooked option. Not enough parking. Couldn't get the TV in the room to show any terrestrial channels.

A lovely, old, characterful Coaching Inn.
1. Our twin room was a good size, and cosy. 2. The bedding was very clean and the beds snug. 3. The bathroom was smart and spotless. 4. In-room drinks included bottled water, teas, and a coffee machine including pods. 5. The employees were friendly and helpful. 6. The location was perfect with amenities on the doorstep. 7. On-site parking great. 8. A lovely, old, characterful Inn, which I would highly recommend.

Friendly staff, good breakfast, nice hot shower, very clean room. Interesting very old building going back to 1629 so the building is crooked but that added to its vibe. Parking was a little bit tight.

Good tasty food
When i got there early the manager was very good and gave me an upgrade room, which i was happy with. He aso sorted out a table in the restaurant for Sunday lunch early for me. So i was quite happy on first impressions. For over £100 per night i would have expected a larger bathroom i dont think they can call it a junior suite. The food was good. Breakfast is very important to me and i look forward to it when im in a hotel, unfortunately the was no choice of cold options like cereal, yogurt or fruit. There was a good choice of cooked food and the food was tasty. Unfortunately when i asked about cereal the waitress said there was some but i would have to pay extra, when i asked her about marmalade she said it was included and i only had to ask and she was a bit rude maybe it was because i had asked her to wipe down my table earlier as it had stains on. This unfortunately spoilt my stay a bit. The marmalade was on the table the next morning though. They did have the added bonus of Netflix so was able to watch a couple of films. So a very good start to my stay but went a bit downhill afterwards.
