Kings Arms Bicester

There was no food available. Both decent beer taps were off and there was a pop left in the toilet

Carpets dirty , no cold water in shower , shower didn’t work properly, no handle on toilet chain. Window was propped up with a toilet roll . Tv didn’t work , shower head was filthy. Room didn’t get serviced and was unbelievably hot

After we checked in the guys on reception kindly carried our heavy cases to the top of the building, room 17 is up a narrow staircase. The building is very old. The room slopes in many directions but was spacious with a super-king bed, the bathroom was also very large but it was impossible to stand in the bath/shower as it was under a sloping roof. Our pillows had no pillow protectors & were heavily stained a foul yellow colour from sweat. The bed didn’t have a mattress protector either. We showed the guys on reception our unsavoury pillows & asked for new pillows or at least pillows that were clean - they didn’t have any so they gave us extra pillow cases. As the town was booked out we had no choice but to go with this. It really is totally unacceptable to have such low standards of cleanliness, this hotel really needs to lift its game. Would we stay again - NO!!!

This small town inn is rather run down. We can only comment fully on our room. The room was on the second floor and was spacious and airy - unfortunately it is in need of repair to the point of possible being unsafe. The window frames are rotten, that in the bathroom having lost its bottom right corner. All the windows can be opened fully to an extent that is dangerous for children and the sashes are broken - so the windows do not stay open unless propped. The tiles on the bathroom floor are broken and loose and my wife hurt her foot on some broken edges. We complained about this and the hotel effected a minimal repair of the worst area - though many more tiles were loose. In general the room was grubby, though to be fair it is so large and the general condition with broken skirtings and redundant, former central heating pipes would make a thorough cleaning difficult. There is a hatch in the bathroom ceiling the wooden surround of which is brown with dirt. The exterior of the property is very tatty. The window frames are in sadly need of attention and there is unfinished demolition work in the car park at the rear. I am sorry to be so critical but our room in this hotel was over £100 a night which made it poor value for money. The public areas were cleaner and smart and the general decrepitude of the building was not so evident. An additional issue was that our daughters camp bed had a duvet without a cover.

Booked for the lads for working away. They were disappointed with the cleanliness. Pubes in the bedding and in the bathroom. They have asked me not to book this one ever again.

Horrible stay , no air conditioning/. no fan / hot and cold water bad / bad smell all around the hotel . Never go back there again.

The bed is very comfy room and bed large

Awesome, hotel and location! :)

So disappointed. The photos and description make you think you’re staying at a quaint little village coach house. Wow. So run down and tired. Bed was so noisy with creaks that I couldn’t move without waking up the whole hotel. It’s wasn’t clean. Plug sockets hanging off the walls. Shower was a sprinkle at best. It was like a ghost town. Not one single person seen apart from the receptionist/watchman for the whole stay. Eerily quiet. Not one single good thing to say about it. I could have stayed in. Premier Inn and saved myself the extra £50. Didn’t even stay for breakfast.

It was exactly what we needed a stop gap between trips. Nice little pub would stay again
