Perfect location for attending a wedding up the road. Walkable back at night.
Lovely friendly staff, beautiful room with character and fantastic bathroom.
They were also great at accommodating me for lunch and breakfast as a Coeliac.

Nothing! The room stank of gloss paint - it was overpowering. The bed was ok, however the linen was “brand new” and still had the manufacturers dressing on it. The bathroom had a lock on the outside of the door, but, importantly , not one on the inside of the door. The mirror was suspended by string, was heavy, and if dislodged would have caused serious damage. There were no net curtains, to provide some privacy at ground floor level. The television didn’t work. The only light switch in the room meant having to switch off, by the door, and then blindly find your way to bed. There was no catering, no breakfast, and no evening meal. The man on the desk was very rude and not helpful, or interested. To be charged £120, for this lack of any hospitality, is an insult and a disgrace. The “hotel” should be closed until such time as it is able to provide any hospitality. The description on booking.com, is absolutely and totally misleading. We were advised £100 and then billed for £120, adds insult to injury. And it makes our faith in booking.com, severely tested, and in doubt for any future bookings. There are many other booking agents.

Michelle was welcoming and friendly, the location and parking were spot on - with the town centre a short walk away. The room exceeded our expectations and the breakfast was perfect. It’s a classy classic B&B and you will love it!
Well presented and comfortable. Correctly furnished kitchen and utensils. Good lounge area. All windows openable and working blinds snd curtains. Banbury was easy to get around. Good shops znd restaurants. Pleasant to be along the canalside on a Summery day.

Charming hotel located in a small village of thatched cottages. We only stayed one night as a stop-over on our way to see other parts of the UK. I did not research the area to see what was near by for those who may want to stay more nights. Loved the decor and had a lovely outside garden area to relax, and enjoy drinks or meal. Food was very good, reasonably priced and friendly service. Dinner service was a bit slow however.

Banbury itself is not the greatest spot (I used to live around the area for many years myself before moving away) however, there are so many other places to visit it doesn't matter. Banbury is excellent for grocery shopping with all tastes catered for and a range of supermarkets from Lidl up to Waitrose. Enjoy !

Banbury has a good shopping retail park called Gateway which is a drive away and on a bus route.
Town centre has lots of cafes, a few decent pubs and cocktail bars. Not sure about restaurants in the town but travel a few miles out of town , you’ll find some good pubs/ restaurants.
Lock29 in the shopping precinct is vibrant and a good choice of foods on offer by different vendors. Behind the precinct is the Banbury canal with a few food outlets, cinema and pub.

Came back for a family visit. I was born here. The town has grown, and along with it, the traffic, which is very heavy, but I suppose that comes with growth..
So many beautiful places to visit all within an easy drive of Banbury make it a n ideal location to stay.
We found great places for evening meals, light afternoon snacks, in fact so many we were amazed.

We were using Banbury as a base to visit relatives and did not explore Banbury in depth, so cannot give an authoritative view. It is actually a good base to visit places and is well positioned off the M40. (we moved on to a planned trip to Straford upon Avon after the 3 nights stay)
We very much enjoyed our one night stay at the Stag's Head. The location is lovely. The outside areas are greatly enhanced by lots of lovely planted pots. It has a Mediterranean feel. I had chicken Souvlaki and my husband Lamb Moussaka. Both were delicious. We also enjoyed our continental breakfast in the attractive dining area. The staff were excellent, the owner taking the trouble to chat to all guests. If you want a quiet break in a rural spot complete with a historical church at the top of the road this is it!!
Michelle, the owner, catered for our every needs. The room was very comfortable and exactly as the photo showed on the website. There was plenty of choice for breakfast and the large table catering for all guests, created lots of conversation. We would recommend staying at Banbury Cross B & B if you are in the area. It is very convenient for the town, which is just 5 minutes walk from the house.
Ayman and Julie could not have been more friendly or helpful. They made us feel very welcome and nothing was too much trouble. The Guest House was in a very good position, both for Cherwell Hospital and walking into Banbury centre. The room and facilities were very clean and comfortable. There was a good breakfast choice, and the cooked food was amazing. Will definitely stay again when in the area.
Sian was an exceptional host! She went above and beyond our expectations. She made us feel like we were staying at a friend's home. She was welcoming and extremely helpful in helping us get to where we wanted to go visit. The room was very neat and clean. Breakfast was delicious!! We felt right at home! We would definitely stay at Avonlea again, if we're in the area again!!
This was a lovely old building.Reception,bar and dining area was lovely and relaxing.
The breakfast was good quality and great value for money.
While I could over look the tired decor of rooms the cleanliness was really poor. The cleaners are definitely letting this hotel down as the rest of the hotel staff were friendly ,and gave a fantastic service.
AnExceptional breakfast for the price of the hotel. All staff were very helpful and friendly. Stayed in a dog friendly room, where the bed was so comfy, and the towels were pristine white. Lovely beer garden, and fantastic value for money. Would not hesitate to stay if travelling through Banbury.
great location - 10 minute walk to town. Lovely friendly hosts - gave excellent tip on where to eat. Lovely comfy bed and bright spacious room with nice ensuite. Beautiful gardens - if in Banbury area again will definitely use this B & B again. Great also if visiting Oxford.
Nothing. It has to be the worst room we have ever stayed in and certainly the most dangerous. Luckily, we found an excellent place to eat (not in Banbury where were directed to go by manager but a drive away) and we had somewhere lovely to go to outside of Banbury.
Very clean, nicely decorated, very comfortable. The neighborhood appeared safe and for the most part, quiet. Beautiful park with an aviary and rose garden nearby. Can walk to grocery stores and more shops. Even walked to Castle Quay. Very charming area.
Hosts were very friendly, the room perfectly silent and breakfast good. The hotel is much cheaper than hotels in Oxford, but but the travel by fast train takes 19 minutes, so this hotel can be good for this who has something to do in Oxford.
Good location in the centre of an attractive north Oxfordshire village. Plenty of interesting places to visit in the surrounding area. Welcoming bar and dining areas. Ample car parking. Quality bedding and towels.
Easy to find and a very handy location for a night out in Banbury. Cheerful welcome and the the host allocated me a room with an extra long bed. Very fast wi-fi, which made me realise how poor other places are
The breakfast was good, I liked the fact that it was freshly cooked and tailored to my requirements. Everything else was pretty much as I hoped for. It was nice to stay in a hotel with character.
Close to the railway station and all the pubs and restaurants in Banbury.
Lovely quiet area and not disturbed by other guests banging doors all night.
Far better than we expected.
Clean. Lovely Room, staff very friendly and helpful.
