Can't wait to return!

After 5 weeks of travel, this gem was a memorable last night - one of our nicest stays. A charming old hotel, its many character features were seamlessly integrated into a very enjoyable stay. The bed was comfortable and large, the in-room amenities better than most, and the included breakfast went well beyond expectations. Being an older building there are stairs to the upper levels and no AC; some may also find the road-frontage rooms noisy with the windows open. For us these were minor, understandable considerations and wouldn't for a minute deter us from returning.

This is my go-to stay when I'm in Aylesbury - it's head and shoulders above the rest IMHO, and I've tried a few! Fiona and the staff are welcoming and helpful, there are lots of thoughtful touches in the rooms and the breakfast is superb. *Highly recommend *

Not as good as it used to be

This has been a staple of our visits to the area for many years so we were disappointed with how things have changed in such a short period. On arrival we were told that the water would be off the following morning at 8am for planned plumbing works. No apology, no pre warning. In addition, the staff proved quite unfriendly - not just with us - with everyone who is not a regular. Not something we expected nor should expect of a hotel. Very disappointing over all and not an enjoyable experience.
