As at Jan 15th 2024 the hotel has just been refurbished - only one week reopened. Excellent welcome, really goof breakfast, lovely staff. My room was very quiet, comfortable, good shower, though could have been a tad stronger. Only downside for me was the lack of Wifi out of the bar and breakfast area (i.e. not in my room - a disappointment tent, as I'd intended to do some work in prep for the next day). Careful driving needed through the passage to the parking area - only just enough clearance for a Qashqai - proximity alarms on most of the way through. The hotel is pleasant though, and right next to the Cross that features in the nursery rhyme! I wish them all the best in getting re-established: they're well placed as a base for anyone wanting to visit all sorts of attractiopmns, be it Oxford, Warwick, Coventry, Silverstone, Bicester, the Cotswolds, and they've even got a railway connection that'll take you into London or Birmingham.

Good location in Banbury and it's an OK hotel but highly dependant on which room you get. In the old building soundproofing is non existent and floor boards creak so loudly that you will be woken every time someone in a nearby room gets up or walks around.

It was used to be a old ancient times hotel in England, but it renewaled. Clearn and lovely,but I liked the style of the old England types.

We stayed one night. All staff encountered during our stay were welcoming, friendly and keen to help. Our room was very comfortable, nicely decorated and the bathroom was modern and spotlessly clean. The menu in the restaurant offered a good range of high quality and very tasty dishes. We will happily stay here again should the opportunity arise.

The property was very tired - many marks in carpeting which felt unclean. The garden was basically worn grass. Our room was spacious; bad was comfortable. I booked through *******, which indicated breakfast was included, but it really wasn't. Banbury is not a lovely town. I recommend staying elsewhere.

Beautiful hotel from the front, the back part of the hotel very tired looking and a little dirty in places. We stayed in the back had a lovely garden view, room was a good size, lovely large bed. On first glimpse it was decorated well and clean. Some furniture was tired looking but overall ok. Problems we had was tv bad signal and control not working properly. Bathroom was clean but water pressure was terrible, im 5ft 7 and could only just get under shower my husband couldn't fit under so had to have a bath which took forever to fill. The windows in the room and wall underneath were moldy. I did notify reception on leaving and they took pictures and have reported it to management.

Property was beautiful old and quirky. Staff were lovely. Garden was a joy to sit out in. Breakfast great. Hand soap in bathroom please. Will return

Whateley Hall is a lovely old house but with all it's associated creaks so don't expect silence as people walk outside your room. Also being the old house it is, it was built around mid 17th century, there's no lift. Something to consider if you have mobility issues. The room itself is a decent size and very comfortable but I found myself sliding off the edge of the bed if I'm just sitting near the edge as they appear to use something like a duvet under you. Breakfast is plentiful with a wide choice. Fresh fruit, usually apples, are available around the clock next to reception and while waiting to be attended to we were brought coffee (or tea if you prefer). All in all, a delightful stay in a delightful town.
One last but significant point is that the access to the car park is through a narrow stone lined passageway. Drive carefully if you don't want your wing mirrors scraped.

Pleasant hotel that needs a refurb. Good location.
Payment policy is shocking as payment was taken without communication or permission. Staff dismissed the questions about this.
