Lovely and welcoming place to stay.
We really enjoyed our stay at Wateley Hall. The staff were brilliant and very welcoming. The menu sadly did not have a gluten free starter but the chef was very accommodating and made me a special one that was gluten free. The food was very good and piping hot which was lovely. The waiter was very attentive and couldn’t do enough for us. Many thanks to all the team that made our stay so nice. Well done and we will definitely stay here again if we’re in the area. Highly recommended.

Great option for a stay
We chose this venue as it was an affordable option for a quick stop - we were so impressed! The rooms were spacious and quiet and beautifully appointed, there was a lovely woman on reception who suggested a great restaurant for dinner across the road, and the breakfast the next morning was delicious. All in all a great stay

General overview
Comfortable and clean hotel. Pleasant staff who were very helpful. Nice restaurant and bar. Hotel is in a good area close to restaurants and bars within walking distance. The hotel is a little tired but this doesn’t take anything away from it it is just an observation and I would stay there again.

Nice hotel in the centre of Banbury
We had a lovely stay in Banbury and the hotel being right in the town centre was perfect with free parking being a big plus. There were only a few minor points that stopped it being excellent e.g. intermittent tv remote, beside lamp not working and a luke- warm shower. They certainly didn't spoil our trip but, for me, prevent an excellent rating. I'd definitely stay here again though.

10/10 Exceptional

Situated in the heart of the town, the canal-side property is conveniently located near Banbury Cross, Castle Quay shopping center, and local transportation hubs. The receptionist provided exceptional customer service, offering valuable information and assistance.

Feedback
Stayed one night, reception staff were friendly and helpful. Room was generally fine and bed comfortable. However window (secondary glazing inside a very old window) meant all noise from street outside was easily heard and there was quite a bit. Also temperature control on radiator almost impossible to move. I'm not really complaining, just providing hopefully helpful feedback on a couple of things that would be relatively easy to improve

Rooms could benefit from some TLC but great staff
Beautiful building with a lovely reception and dining room. Great staff but the room was in alright condition with the light falling out the ceiling and wallpaper peeling off. Bed was very comfy and the bathroom was very clean. Overall, the staff and cleanliness make this an average stay.

Ian, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

I understand with the recent rain some of the cleaning staff couldn’t get to work. We did have to wait for our room, but didn’t mind as the reception staff let us put our bags upstairs. Overall pretty clean as the poor staff had to work extra hard. It was appreciated.
