I had a very nice stay at this hotel. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well maintained. The staff was friendly, helpful, and always ready to assist with a smile. The location was convenient, and the overall atmosphere was relaxing and pleasant. I especially enjoyed the excellent service and delicious food. I would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

The hotel is very tired and needs updating, however it was clean, comfortable and the staff were lovely. The food was excellent even though it was only myself and my wife who ate in the dinning room whilst we were there. The hotel does takeaway food and there was a steady stream of cars coming in to pick up meals which is a testament to the quality. The position of the hotel was great for our needs. It is outside of Oxford but transport links are very good.
We are in the process of looking for property in the area and we would have no worries about staying there again whilst we are looking, and will go back there to eat once we have found a place to move to.

Not the best room, lovely food

Wi-Fi wasn’t the best, my colleague had a hair in her breakfast and she had a really poor apology and was not offered anything off her stay, evening food (Indian) was gorgeous but the sizes of the meals were quite small, they should increase the portions and price. Downstairs were decorated very nice but rooms are aged, mine had a radiator in the bathroom that had metal bubbling / peaking at the bottom, rooms need a deep clean, window sill rotten and bad marks on walls, the shower curtain as dirty/ moulding on the bottom edge and the rail of the shower curtain was bubbling and rusted

Perfectly adequate but needs some TLC.

Place looked great, the rooms were lovely and spacious and the bed was comfortable. However, you look a bit closer and the whole place just looks a bit tired - the net curtains on the windows had tears in and had been “repaired” with a stapler, the window frames themselves were rotting and there were gaps around some edges of the glass where the putty was missing. The corner of the sink unit in the bathroom had worn off with the veneer missing and the fibreboard exposed. Plus general bits in the corridors like rusting radiators and walls needing a bit of paint.
Also was quite a challenge to find any staff at the front desk, had to wait a few mins upon arriving until someone appeared (no bell or anything). When we had a query later we had to wander around to find someone and there was just a box for keycards on checkout, no staff at all. The website also said there were complimentary bottles of water in the room type that we booked, but there weren’t, and they apparently didn’t have any, so we bought our own from a nearby supermarket.
Also they weren’t doing any breakfast “because the chef was on holiday”. Luckily there’s a Beefeater about 2 mins drive away the other side of the dual carriageway and they were great for breakfast.
The place was perfectly adequate for what we needed - just a place to sleep after a family event, but it needs a good renovation and better staffing. (Staff we interacted with were friendly and polite but might be better with more of them).

An interesting experience

Didn't partake in the food, smelling it through the building was bad enough. Thought I was in for a treat stopping in the main house but ushered outside to an annex building and the communal area was quite poor.

Room was OK, shower was the smallest I have been in for a long while and there was no extract fan in there so had to open the window. TV was very small and the remote control was disgustingly dirty. Not a lot of sound protection between the rooms so heard a full conversation of someone below or to the side for an hour. Check out is 11am but someone was knocking on my door at 09:30, bang went my lie in!

A nice room, although showing a lot of wear and tear. Needs a spruce up. Could be a lot more attention to detail as there was cobwebs above the shower and by the door. The extractor fan in the bathroom was very noisy but didn’t stay on too long so wasn’t too annoying. It was very cold in the room went I first went in as the radiator was off. Would be nice if it would be turned on to a low setting prior to my arrival just to take the chill off. Despite these minor negatives I would stay again but would see what else is available in the area first.

I needed a place where I could arrive very late, crash, and be off and away again very early the next morning. The staff couldn't have been nicer about the late arrival... an arrival that was even later than earlier planned, after I encountered closed roads three times on my journey. I did phone in updates... impressive that they were answering the phone near midnight, I thought. Again in the morning I encountered staff who brightened my day by their courtesy and efficiency. So! I didn't really \"see\" the hotel... but had a nice stay, within the parameters of my needs, which were awkward for the hotel. I would also mention that the location was lovely.

Nice country house hotel

I've stayed at Steventon house a few times while working in the area. It's a nice looking building and has a free parking. For me it was well located to my clients offices, while being remote enough that we were not surrounded by other buildings. It's a nice house, both times I've stopped I've been in the back annex which is separate from the main building, but comfortable and in good condition. I will be going back again when I am in the area.

A very convenient and well-run hotel.

A one-night stay after a family funeral in the area. Excellent, efficient young staff at reception and in restaurant, where evening meal was delicious and at a reasonable price. Good traditional English cooked breakfast too. Room was perfectly acceptable as a mid-price double, with ensuite. No great views and near a main road, but room at the rear was quiet. Good night's rest.

Not impressed

We booked a 1 night stay in a four poster room for 28th December. The room itself was ok, although a little worn in places and not very clean. There was a bizarre amount of ladybird bugs in the room which seemed to keep coming from nowhere.

Upon arrival, a wedding party was in the bar area. This meant we couldn’t have a drink. Then the receptionist said that we might not be able to have dinner there due to the wedding. Not impressed. We decided to go out instead.

On our return at around 9.30 the wedding party was in full swing and the music was really loud. Again we couldn’t use the bar unless we wanted to intrude on the wedding so we went up to our room on the top floor. The music was so loud and went on until 12am.

Breakfast was poor. The service was lacklustre and bacon bizarre - think it had been deep fried? Not good at all.

At 10.45 we had a rude call reminding us to leave by 11!

Upon checkout I politely explained that we had been unhappy with our stay and the service. The receptionist was shocked and said there was nothing he could do about it. I asked to speak to the manager and he said he was the duty manager. He said we instead needed to write to the owner for them to consider. Absolutely ridiculous. There was no apology at all and zero interest.

Overall I wouldn’t recommend this hotel unless you’re part of the wedding. A waste of money and awful customer service. Not how we wanted to celebrate my husband’s birthday at all.

First impressions were good as the hotel and room were very smart, the welcoming member of staff was friendly and talkative, unfortunately I was woken very early in the night by a loud continuous noise (I think from a boiler in a nearby cupboard), this noise was continuous, loud and kept rising and lowering in pitch making it impossible to ignore. I tried everything to get to sleep but the noise was constant and continued through the entire night keeping me awake until my alarm went by which time I was considering going to my car to try and sleep. I was so tired that I was slow to get up. At breakfast there was no high fibre cereal available at all which was all I wanted as I was due to run in the Abingdon Marathon (also the male member of staff at breakfast was obsequious), this meant more time was lost and I missed the start due to these factors. My whole weekend was spoilt by this and my race time severely affected so I will be sending an official complaint in and asking for a full refund plus compensation for my costs over the weekend which will amount to a figure ten times the small discount given at the time.
