Absolutely perfect - in every way Travelling from Scotland to Oxford for a couple of days with work I initially looked at staying in the city and then after seeing the Talbot Inn (a 15 min bus ride away) online I quickly changed my mind and I'm so glad I did. I picked up a hire car and drove from Luton Airport (super easy) and arrived late morning to a lovely welcome - friendly and inviting. Parked up (in large car park) and unpacked in a beautiful and freshly decorated twin bedded room, grabbed a quick shower (big fluffy towels and fancy double rain shower!) before deciding to abandon the car and hop on the bus (stop immediately outside) into Oxford for some meetings. Booked dinner in the restaurant for the evening and it was absolutely first class. Lots of choice, fresh local produce and delicious. Busy with local customers on a Tuesday evening always tells a good tale! Booked again for the Wednesday evening and once again wasn't disappointed! Yum. As a frequent traveller (work and personal) it is rare to find a gem like the Talbot Inn. One which ticks every hospitality box - excellent food, friendly staff AND customers, comfy beds, a room offering a desk big enough to work comfortably, sympathetically decorated with lots of lovely touches (see photos), ample parking, delicious breakfasts, ooh and it's on the Thames Walkway so perfect for walkers and their pooches! Thank you all. Next time I'm in the area I'll definitely return!
