The Highwayman Hotel anmeldelser

酒店圖片是假的，這根本就不是一個酒店，我連夜離開了根本就沒敢住。連農莊都算不上。太可怕了，連照片都沒敢拍。這是我去過所有地方最可怕的酒店。 非常偏僻，門口坐着很多喝酒的人，房間很小，破舊潮濕，地板極臟，這些尚且可以忍受，關鍵是一進院子就沒有了任何信號，衹能用房間裏微弱的wifi 。薄薄的門板根本不隔音，房間的門鎖還鎖不緊，要用一把古老的鑰匙從裏面鎖一下才能從外邊打不開。在這樣偏僻的地方，感覺如果關了wifi ，我們就完全與外界失去聯繫，變成了待宰的羔羊。完全沒有任何安全可言。我們連夜離開了，根本沒有住，房主也拒絕提前離店或者退款。 建議不要訂，不是人住的地方。

Only had one night but a very enjoyable stay. Situated by the canalside on the outskirts of Kidlington, this is a beautiful old establishment is small and well maintained. We were warmly greeted and shown to a reasonably spacious room with a large on suite bathroom, which included a jacuzzi bath. We had a Sunday lunch, which we both enjoyed and found to be good value. Any criticism of our stay would be nit picking as any faults were minor. All the staff were lovely and welcoming. we enjoyed a few drinks at the bar with friendly locals. Breakfast served locally sauced produce which could not be faulted. Great value for money and highly recommended.

About the only vegetarian choice on the menu was the mushroom and pea risotto. At £14.95 this was outlandishly experience for what we were served. Expecting a wine based creamy rice what we received was an upturned rice pudding with some fried mushrooms and almost-grey garden peas. A fatty oil was drizzled around the plate and that was it. It was luke warm and served on nasty plates one of which was very badly chipped. No garnish, nothing. We had to ask for the promised parmesan shavings which was again a pretty meagre portion for four. £60 for 4 of us (about £5 ingredients and no finesse whatsoever) felt like a rip off. The beer was good and some of the other meals coming out of the kitchen looked good.

So I booked this purely as place to stay overnight as I was participating in a charity bike ride from nearby the following day. I had already emailed the owner/ manager to request if I could keep the bike inside my room or at least inside overnight for security . Upon arrival I was told straight away " no bikes in here ". How welcoming ...I explained my situation , he found the email, said he hadn't read it. Didn't change his mind and literally turned his back on me.....very unwelcoming, unfriendly and unhelpful....so I rebooted into the Premier Inn down the road....wish I had done it to begin with.....you get what you pay for.....avoid this place.

Great place ,booked as we were visiting Blenheim palace nearby. Friendly welcome , let us order food as kitchen was nearly ready to close when we arrived and then showed to our rooms whilst it was prepared. Nice , clean ,comfortable , warm and well appointed rooms equipped with everything you would need. The meal we had was nice , Well cooked and generous portions. The pub is a bit of a throw back but i mean that as massive compliment. Full of individual character ,very friendly people (both staff and the locals in the pub ) and really well kept beer . The bonus on top was there was a live singer who gently encouraged everyone to join in with him which mostly the whole pub did . Great night . Great atmosphere . Beautiful views of the canal where a new decking has just been built. Lovely breakfast, lots available, well cooked . We will definitely return,6 stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We had a lovely time staying for 3 nights. It’s definitely not a gentrified gastropub more pub rooms with a community pub with limited opening below. Backs on to a charming canal and there’s a motorhome field behind the pub. Room was large and full of character, sofa, dining table and chairs and big TV - we stayed in one night and had a bottle wine. Decor a little tired but clean. Friday night was folk night and lovely atmosphere - food was ok and reasonably priced if not memorable. Breakfast similarly ok. Lots of good local restaurants for the foodies. We could come and go as pleased and locals and staff were so laidback we had the most relaxing stay in years.

Attended a school reunion expecting a reasonable buffet for £12/hd. It was atrocious. Inedible in fact certainly did not look appetising. Boughten supermarket cakes thinly sliced. I will never visit the pub again. Shame as beautiful location, great potential with good management.

Awful. Wouldn't stay here again. The photos are not up to date. Not worth the £100 per room per night! Arrived to a very run down, tatty looking building. Overgrown weeds around the front door area which you use to access the rooms at night. No nice hanging baskets or flowers on the tables on the porch as shown in the photos. Windows and window frames were old and paint flaking off. Windows to bedrooms were all open when we arrived... clearly to try and distract from the smell of the kitchen fryers that smelt disgusting going up the stairs to the rooms! The rooms were very dated. Carpets were old and stained. Bathrooms were awful. I did not use the shower! Very old and grubby. Broken floor tile in my bathroom had been taped up with silver duct tape! There were long hairs on my pillow in my bedding and the mattress felt very old and soft. We did not eat dinner or breakfast at the pub for obvious reasons. Wouldn't recommend.

Sadly a pub/hotel that won't survive unless it ups its game. Upon arrival, we were told that they weren't serving food that evening - a Saturday night! So, after a long day we had to find a local pub to eat. We headed back to the Highwayman at around 8.30pm intending to have a drink in the bar before retiring only to find the pub was shut! We weren't the only people staying, some of whom were sitting outside nursing a drink they had bought earlier. The bedroom was nicely furnished, but the bathroom needed a complete overhaul with wobbly toilet seat and wobbly toilet. Not value for money and amazed that not only did they not serve food on a Saturday night, but they closed before 8.30pm. We shall not be returning.

we have a narrow boat nearby and booked friends into the Highwayman to join us on a cruise the holiday was spoilt because the Highwayman turned out to be a disaster the room was dirty . Bedding had not been changed and was bloodstained there was no one in overall charge, and our friends did not like to tell us how awful the place was because they didnt want to embarass us. finally they had to admit it for various reasons and at great inconvenience we had to find somewhere else no apologies or any compensation

This is a rare find in today’s accommodation and dining market - a poorly run pub and rooms that clearly don’t care about attracting more customers let alone looking after those that have booked. The rooms are just bland, tired, dirty and desperately need some attention. The bathrooms are very dated with sinks that don’t drain, mouldy mastic and showers that are very difficult to control. Breakfast was offered from 9:00am (?) - no-one was available on-site before that time. Overall a poor experience, one to avoid, there’s plenty of better choice nearby.

Amazing place and amazing food cooked by Harry will be returning Service was great and such a friendly place nothing was too much trouble, beautiful warm fire and allow dogs which was really nice perfect setting next to the canal really lovely pub thank you

A lovely traditional pub with log burner on the go. Lunch was delicious in a relaxed, warm & cosy atmosphere. Great hospitality, nice menu choice & nothing was too much trouble. Good choice of ales as well. Looking forward to coming back again soon.

Highwayman Hotel Kidlington Horrible experience. 897940665 Extremely disappointing stay despite being reassured by other reviews before booking - Signage has deteriorated, so no way to know you've arrived in the dark. Only boarding leads to industrial estate next-door. - No one to chk in, eventually found off duty staff member who kindly assisted. - Room 7 well... Grimy,dirty,mouldy with strong smell sewage. - Asked for manager next day and left note for him to call. Nick Devall has just called 2 days later exacerbated the situation by laughing at me while I tried to explain. No discussion/options offerred to resolve explained room not worth £108, which he agreed, when asked how much room is he said £100 ??? Still dont understand why he thinks would be worth £100. In our opinion we should have been paid that to stay there. Have photos happy to share. Please o not book and be disappointed.
