Red Lion Hotel  

friendly staff, decent english breakfast, comfortable room and bed. Great location for exploring oxfordshire and the cotswolds

Handheld shower over the bath

The staff were very friendly and relaxed. There was a slight problem with the boiler on the first day, which didn't really cause us any problems, but they reduced my bill by £50!! There were also a lot of free lattes and excellent beers.

Friendly atttentive staff, lovely cosy room and a no nonsence fairly priced dinner menu

Nothing. I'd stay there again.

We booked a late availability special deal which was excellent value and suited our purpose for a visit to Oxford and visiting friends in the area.From booking in until leaving the service,friendliness and courtesy was excellent and we were very impressed by the efficiency of the staff.The Red Lion is obviously a very wellrun and managed hotel and we will certainly be returning in the future, Joyce Henderson

Value for money and reasonably priced food and drink with a good choice to select from

It would be diffilult to negotiate stairs and interlinking fire doors for less able people.

The staff were all very pleasant.

The lack of a functioning hot water supply in the shower room basin was not appreciated. The general feeling about the place was 'heavily used faux olde-worlde style, tired and in need of a refurb'.

Very little, except the convenience of the location. However, in view of the number of complaints we had, they were quick to reduce our bill, to compensate, even though we cut short our intended 3 night stay, to just 2.

Our "Superior double room" was in need of a thorough refurbishment. Scarred & shipped furniture, with tired, unimaginative decor. Restaurant food was largely microwaved, and when we complained about it, we were told "Well, we are part of Greene King!" Breakfasts were adequate, although the size of my kipper fillet was so small that the lemon slice' on top' hid half of it. We found that the spare blanket, from the wardrobe, was heavily stained, dirty & unusable, but the final straw was when we noticed that the freshly laundered duvet cover wasn't fully fastened at the foot. When we looked inside we found the duvet itself was very heavily stained, and absolutely filthy. We checked out immediately. Significantly, reception apologised for the duvet and said they were ordering a new one, from Greene King immediately. What, without checking our complaint? It left us thinking that they were aware of this well before they let the room to us. If this is the "Superior" double room, what must other guests have been tolerating?

Location to "The Cotswolds" and Oxford Room. Was comfortable and a good size

The shower was a problem as you got wet turning it on.

friendliness of all staff/management especially Vicky and Jenny.clean,comfortable quirky room,food very good ,hotel ideally located.

Comfortable and relaxed

The room was very clean and the bed extremely comfortable. The food was of a high standard and the choice of evening meals was excellent. The bar kept a varied selection of ales and the wine we chose with the evening meals was very good. The staff were very helpful and attentive and made our stay very pleasurable. The location of the Red Lion was ideally situated for our visits to Waddesdon Manor and Upton House.

The history and quality of the rooms, the excellent meals and the general ambiance.
