In its old guise as The Marlborough you would have had to be deperate for somewhere to stay. However, since a refurbishment costing over £3m. the Blue Boar is a welcom addition to Witney where good accomodation seemed difficult to get. The public areas were very nice, the restaurant was excellent, service from everyone was impeccable and the rooms were... More

My only two niggles were that when we checked in, we had to complete personal data which the front desk were quite happy to leave lying around in full view while they showed us our rooms. However...

We stopped here for one night when we were in Witney for a family wedding. The hotel is well located in the centre of Witney and it has recently been refurbished so everything is very new and shiny. The rooms have good sized bathrooms which have been kitted out to a high standard. Widescreen TV with freeview, kettle and hair... More

My wife and I went to the Blue Boar last Saturday night to sample what they had to offer. First impressions were good, and I would commend the re-design of the place from what it was (rather tired and out dated) and it now very tastefully decorated and comfortable. The place was full and everyone seemed to be enjoying their... More

Recently had lunch with two friends at the Blue Boar, very impressed with the decor and stylish restaurant after their extensive refurbishment. The food certainly didn't disappoint and the service was very good throughout. Also there was a lively buzz in the bar afterwards, definitely somewhere I shall be visiting again!

Our first visit since the major refurb, we live local and booked a table for Valentines night. Food and service was excellent, the resturant looks great. Certainley not the cheapest in town but will return again. If the bar and resturant refurb are anything to go on I should imagine the rooms will be good as well. Well done to... More

We celebrated my husband's 40th at the Blue Boar in January. They were so helpful in the lead up to the party and did everything I asked, and more, to make it a wonderful event for my husband. They decorated the room, set it up beautifully had individual bills for each family that attended to make settling up easy and... More
