Recently stayed at the Bell Inn & Restaurant at Charlbury in Oxfordshire. The room i stayed in was ultra-modern, very stylish, clean, tidy & well presented. The staff were courteous & helpful. The restaurant had no problem catering for our party of 14 & the Rib-Eye Steak I enjoyed was one of the nicest i'd ever had. Compliments to the... More

Well, we arrived to a friendly welcome but a room mix-up meant we had a small double instead of the twin room we had booked online. As there were no other rooms we stayed one night there and moved the next night to a "superior" twin. Slightly annoying to have to pack up and move but the staff were apologetic... More

My husband booked a room for our annivesary, we had visited Charlbury a few years ago whilst camping and we remembered Charlbury as being a lovely place. Room 2 was very nice and had a lovely big shower room, but upon close inspection the maintenance/housekeeping of the room was not perfect only little things but nevertheless, and we couldnt find...

A mixture of good and not so good. Nice location in a quiet village with a choice of 3 other pubs all within 2 minutes walk. Lovely room with a very comfortable big bed (we had room 11). Clean enough but not spotless, some surfaces obviously hadn't been wiped and there was a bit of mould in the shower -... More

On reading recent reviews I felt compelled to comment on my recent experience of The Bell. Myself and my partner stayed for a long weekend and we were made to feel welcome by the friendly staff and felt very much at home and relaxed in our comfortable and beautifully decorated bedroom. We only ate dinner at the hotel once due... More

It took me 7 tries to book the room, with promises that people would phone back and take messages. We had stayed at The Bell for... More

Website got us excited about staying in this little hotel ('fine dining'...tempting photos). We were disappointed....they did not meet their own promises...lack of attention to detail being the main problem. The rooms are very well decorated, but lacked the promised tea, coffee, water & biscuits...when you need something you have to wait at the pub bar along with the regulars... More

We had a 2-night break here as we were visiting Heythrop. The rooms were large, clean and comfortable and we had an excellent modern shower room. The food was of a very high standard . The staff were welcoming and very helpful.

Its now two years since we last stayed here, and stayed again recently. The rooms have been upgraded big style, the room we stayed in previously now has a massive shower room. The beds appear to have been upgraded, and the TV's in the room are flat screen, working fully with Freeview. Minor niggles - a fridge would be great,... More
