We found the staff friendly and accommodating. The food was delicious both a Sunday lunch and the included breakfast. The room was idea with separate access for a late return from a concert. The room was spacious and also the en suite. A lovely old property with plenty of character. Many thanks to the Royal Oak . . . We would stay there again.

Needs to be refurbished, bathroom was terrible

Hi, the rooms need to be refurbished, in particular the shower. Very week water pressure, it reminded me of bnbs from 20 years ago, the difference is these use to be £20 so you could understand. Prices are now 4-5 times the price so the least you should get is a good shower.

You get what you pay for

Location was good: right in the middle of the town, which itself is a very expensive town (restaurants etc). We had a terrible night's sleep however because of several things: There was a fire escape sign in the room which was on all through the night, illuminating the whole room up green! There was a creaky door below the room at the entrance to the pub which creaked every time it was open. This woke us up at 7am as soon as the pub opened. The room was cold and the radiator didn't work so they supplied an electric heater which was ok but we had to get under the covers to keep warm. The breakfast was ok but quite a small portion. Overall, this was the most affordable place we could find in the costwolds but we wouldn't stay again as we were both exhausted the next day from lack of sleep

During this Covid Pandemic I had to cancel my trip to the Cotswolds. I was able to cancel most of my reservations and plan for 2021, but unfortunately this hotel wouldn't cancel my reservations. Sad and disappointing!
