Beautiful building
The outside pictures don't do it justice.
The building is super old, and has been very well adapted to having the rooms.
The bed was really comfy, the shower was great, but it could have done with a better desk area. :-)

Expectations comfortably exceeded - thank you!
My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay here this weekend. We booked to stay in the Superior Double Room (also called the Junior Suite) and the hotel very kindly upgraded us to the Honeymoon Double Room (the Master Suite). This is a lovely spacious and tastefully decorated room with an excellent en-suite and a super comfortable bed. It is above the main public bar of the hotel but, unless you want to go to bed really early, this is not a problem, even on a busy Saturday, as it closes at 11pm and not much of the noise makes it up through the floor anyway. We certainly did not hear anything after that and enjoyed a perfect night's sleep.
Breakfast is menu style rather than buffet and was delicious. All in all the hotel definitely exceeded our expectations. Thank you.

This is an ancient inn so won't be perfect but the pub and garden and bar are charming. My ensuite room was very comfortable with tea and coffee and nice soaps and linens. Inn is in the middle of Faringdon and a good place from which to explore.

Quaint, quirky coaching in with fab food and rooms
excellent restuarant and food. Breakfast was excellent interms of quality and freshness of produce. e.g eggs free range with bright orange yolks, backon looked dry cured and no white foam, everything exceptionally done. Also dined for evening in Ballroom resturant we had Crispy belly pork and summer salad with flank steak, again exceptional.
