The Talbot Hotel, Oundle, Northamptonshire

Wonderful historic hotel. Great location. Great restaurant

We had a lovely short stay at The Talbot. Rooms were clean and spacious, equipped with all the facilities needed for an overnight stay. The bedside book by local author was a lovely touch. The breakfast was extensive, and plenty of options for vegetarian and vegan guests. It would have been nice to have a vegan pastry option but great that a full vegan breakfast and condiments were on the menu. Waiting and reception staff were polite, kind and extremely helpful. My only complaint was that the bed in my room was uncomfortable (this wasn't the case for other guests). The mattress seemed lumpy and the bed base could be felt through the mattress, meaning I had a poor night's sleep. Aside from this, I could not fault the hotel staff and facilities, hence the 5 star review. Thank you for a very pleasant stay!

Amazing 17th century hotel with excellent restaurant in the centre of Oundle. Friendly helpful staff.

professional and friendly staff

Very comfortable and friendly.

Room clean and tidy, looks like a new bathroom was installed and was in excellent shape. Roll top bath, powerful shower and bed was pretty comfortable. Would definitely recommend. Didn’t stay for breakfast but used Beans a local cafe which I have been too several times.

beautiful hotel in a lovely old town.

Lovely old coaching inn, but had to listen to the noise of the hotel generator all night as the old window in our room wouldn’t shut. After a sleepless night, we waited ages at breakfast, then reminded them we still hadn’t received our food. So we got a lukewarm offering that had obviously been forgotten about and congealed, so had to wait again for them to recook it. Not a great stay and expensive at that. Will be pursuing a refund.

Nice spacious rooms that have been recently decorated. Accompanied with a great breakfast and organic shampoo, body wash etc

This beautiful hotel and amazing, friendly staff is a must for any stay around this area. The rooms are gorgeous, and the breakfast (included) is sensational. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. I cannot believe it isn’t a 5 star hotel. Will definitely visit again. Absolutely no complaints whatsoever.
