Cotswolds Hotel & Spa - (Near Oxfordshire, UK)

4 /5 Aaron Limbu: Overall, a good value stay. Coming from Kent, it felt reasonably priced compared to hotels here. The rooms were clean and comfortable, though there were a few practical issues such as problems with the doors, manual keys, and a lack of mirrors. The hotel looks more luxurious in photos than it does in person. That said, the views were lovely and definitely a highlight. We stayed to attend a wedding ceremony, and it suited our needs well for that occasion.

5 /5 Janice Harris: We have just spent two nights here for my birthday. The bed is super comfy and the studio room is warm and cozy even though it is really big. Booked for two rounds of golf as part of the package and we loved the course. Interesting and well maintained. All the staff were so helpful and accommodating and I really must mention Beth, who was great from helping with our booking to checking us in and chatting to us at reception. Felt like friends. Food was lovely, particularly the main courses. Puddings weren’t so good. One guest complained there was no bottled water in the rooms but the water is perfectly drinkable. Only minor comment is from some of the rooms you have to go outside to get to reception, bar or restaurant and there is no covered walkway. I had a spa treatment which was great and value for money. The hotel just has treatment rooms, no jacuzzi or pool etc. Thank you Beth for making my birthday stay extra special!!! Hope to meet you again soon.

4 /5 Steve Darch: Great value, bedrooms were clean, and lots of space . Restuarant was very good with lovely 3 course evening meal. Buffet breakfast was superb. The bar area is comfy and good selection of drinks at reasonable prices. Overall great value . This is my third visit and was disappointed with the condition of the golf course. I appreciate the dry summer has had an impact but the course looked scruffy and lots of empty beer bottles in hedges and beside fairways. Pick & place helped but compared to previous visits there as been a marked decline in course conditions. It is a lovely course layout and well designed holes . Tee conditions were very poor! but greens true and with good speed. Overall a great value trip but attention to course maintenance needed .

5 /5 holly Makin: This is mine and my partners favourite place to stay, we’ve stayed only a handful of times but every time has been perfect. The staff at the check in desk are lovely and welcoming, the rooms are always clean and tidy and the location is incredible. We have been upgraded on at least 2 of our stays, one of which was our 3 year anniversary and it was very kind of them to upgrade us to an amazing room with everything we needed, it made our stay extra special. I have 0 complaints. We’re yet to try out the golf course but we will be coming back very soon, we are overdue a stay!

3 /5 Phil Little: We stayed in early December for a Christmas get together. Our room was nice although the whole place is a little characterless. I went to the gym about 5pm to find it in such complete darkness I couldnt find it. A staff member from the Spa (which appears to have no spa) let me in and switched the lights on. Several machines were marked out of service and the running machines were placarded as restricted to 9am to 5pm, I imagine due to being on top of guest rooms, not a great design. We joined our friends for the Christmas dinner, food was good and drinks reasonablly priced. However the disco got louder and louder until it was deafening and by 10pm conversation was impossible. We decided to go to the pleasant and quiet bar upstairs. Guess what? At 10pm on a Saturday night it was closed despite many guests already in the bar and more arriving to take refuge from the music. I cant imagine the business sense in closing the bar in such circumstances. Generally an underwhelming experience and calling it a Spa is stretching credibility.
