    Nothing to dislike

    My partner and myself loved everything about it. Sean and Gemma were wonderful so friendly and welcoming, nothing was too much trouble. They are a credit to the hotel. The evening meal was superb and the breakfast was just as nice with plenty of choice. Our room was luxurious, comfortable and clean. We honestly couldn't fault anything about our stay, we found a little gem and would definitely return, also recommend to anyone who is planning on visiting the Cotswolds to stay here. Bampton is a pretty place and an ideal touring base. Thank you to the Fleur de lys and especially to Sean and Gemma for making our stay a special one.

    The music in the restaurant was too loud for us (personal taste as we both have slight hearing issues) but that was quickly remedied by the waiter who turned the volume down. We found the lighting very dark. We had to use the torches on our phones to see the menus. It would also have been nice to be able to see what we were eating! There was one minor issue with the bathroom but the staff said we'd receive some feedback at some time. None of this would stop us from staying again though. The comments are not meant as criticism, simply for consideration for future guests. It was an excellent stay in an excellent location and fully deserves an exceptional score.

    The food - dinner and breakfast was fantastic. The accommodation - room with bath in bathroom was lovely. The room also had a lovely sitting room for us to use. The bed was really comfortable. We were initially concerned that the room, on the main road, might be noisy at night (single glazed window, presumably a listed property?). It was actually really quiet with no disturbance in sleep. We also heard no noise at all from the bistrot restaurant below. The village was lovely for a short walk. The staff were very helpful and polite.

    Lovely welcome from very helpful lad who helped us carry everything up to our room. Absolutely stunning hotel, we all loved the French decor which made the stay extra special. Beds were enormous, top quality bedding and soo comfortable. All rooms were spacious and well thought out. Everything was immaculate and we couldn’t have asked for a better stay!

    The Perfect Stay - by Fleur De Lys Bampton
    • Leisure trip
    • Couple
    • Standard Double Room
    • Stayed 2 nights

    The stay had to end. Honest...if I could afford it...I'd live here.

    A wonderful experience! Fleur de Lys is set apart from any other place we've stayed. Recently refurbished to exceptional standards it's sited in a wonderful location close to Oxford but central to the Cotwolds. . The rooms we're of exceedingly high quality with decor, fixtures and fittings chosen and installed with great taste and workmanship. But the pièce de resistance was the Bistro....a wonderful (all too rare) dining experience. A beautifully balanced menu that from produce, prep to plate is a real joy. Even if you don't stay (and I recommend you do) visit the Bistro...we loved every morsel from Baked Cod to die for.... Cassoulet to shoot your mother for...and Beef Bourguignon...well choose this dish for the day the world ends...it will make it bearable I promise. But let's make clear why Fleur De Lys works....it's people. Ellie (manager), Sean, Reef (front of house) and chef Nathan...work their proverbials off to make your stay special. Will be back...

    Wine was pricey. The lunchtime : "value" menu continued as a cheaper option into the evening during the week but was the same choice three evenings running . Steak was excellent tho as was the wonderful French onion soup.

    Stunning restoration of this wonderful old building. Everything like new again but retaining character. Gorgeous fresh food from limited menu. Easy parking in the road outside. Absolutely wonderful cosy superior bedroom. Excellent breakfast included in the price. Staff were very welcoming. Good value accommodation mid week.
