Bignell Park Hotel  

The breakfast was good and located near Bicester Village!

The place was in need of repair, from the moment we arrived we had to drive around brokenrail fencing in the carpark, another guest who was disabled needed help getting up the ramp from the carpark because the concrete was broken up! In our room handles on the cupboards draws were missing, the sink had a big crack in it, a king size bed with just two cheap thin pillows on it! Could not get the TV to work, went to the bar to watch the news, no sound as they had lost the remote! Worst of all was the rush matting carpet which was uncomfortable to walk on, was coming apart in places and was so rough it ripped my wifes tights. Take into consideration we were in the best four poster room available!

Very good location for Bicester shopping outlet approx 5mins by car.

Room was dull and dated in need of decoration, bar area small and restaurant was average. Hotel living on it's past reputation and in need of a total revamp. Suited our needs.

Good staff Good location Great food

Beautifull setting, fab fireplace,

No ice in the bar, no vodka, car park need some gravel or tarmac, tiles in bathroom need to be secured

Quiet location. Spacious, clean room with good facilities.

The restaurant is fantastic.

The wifi internet is not working and the staff is not helpful to get them fixed even they know this is not the first time they hear about this problem. The first day of my stay has no hot water but guest was not informed in advance.

The rooms are comfortable, clean and well appointed, the hotel is situated within easy reach of Oxford and Bicester Village, Blenheim Palace, Woodstock and the Tews The lady who served breakfast was charming and efficient.

We were booked in through booking.com for half board on Sunday evening for a very reasonable price. We chose this hotel for pricing as well as the fact that not many places offer Sunday evening dining in the area.We drove from Devon, arrived, only to be told that the kitchen was closed, and we were directed to the village pub! The television in the room had no remote control to operate it - back to the lonely recetionist, who told us that wedding parties took the remote controls home , in the end we had to get the TV changed . The receptionist though trying to be helpful (go to the village pub) was not very well trained and did not handle the situation very well.

Location convenient to Bicester Shopping Outlet.

The room was more basic than superior. Some basic cleaning had been overlooked as the window blind was covered in dust and cobwebs. The bathroom floor needed replacing; with missing grout and cracked tiles - very poor. Breakfast was disorganised with one member of staff trying to greet guests, lay tables and serve with little useful assistance from her collegue. Cold selection limited and not replaced. Cooked breakfast very average. Only visible staff were very young and inexperienced. When we checked out we found the hotel had over charged us; fortunately we had a copy of our booking and did receive a refund.

The hotel had a nice charm about it and all rooms looked to be of a good size and standard

Location is a bit out of the way, breakfast was poor, evening meals stopped at 9pm no bar later in the evening, noisy laminate hallways.....

Location and grounds are excellent; unfortunately as soon as one walks through the door it all goes downhill.

Too few staff, nobody manning reception, same person doing bar and other tasks. Room adequate but no better than many at half the price, therefore ? Superior. Fan missing from bathroom, wire hanging out of the wall and ? air venting from adjacent bathroom. Food 'nouvelle cuisine' in style (i.e. not enough!) and the ingredients were poor. Service was slow, young staff with no direction. Breakfast average in quality, tea delayed due to 'shortage of teapots' (hotel did not appear to be full!). Disappointing weekend.

A nice quiet location, yet close to Bicester and many particularly good country pubs. The hotel environment was very relaxing; a nice garden to sit in; plenty of parking; helpful staff.

As noted in previous reviews, the tv had a mind of its own at times, the odd light did not work, and hot water was lacking if you chose to shower at the wrong time (during the early morning rush). That said, all these were considered minor issues and did not detract from what was a pleasant stay.

Location

Dining rom for breakfast dull.Breakfast just okay.

Hotel was ok for the cost of each room, my boys room was much more moden than ours.

The bathroom in our room was not up to scratch, the floor tiles wear loose and wobbley and needed to be re grouted.
