Great Stay!
Had a really lovely stay at The Heyford. The staff are very welcoming and can’t do enough for you. Our room was lovely, we were upgraded to a room with a balcony, very clean and comfortable. Whilst there aren’t any facilities outside of the hotel other than Sainsbury’s opposite we felt this didn’t matter as you can drive to so many fabulous places. The hotel has a bar with drinks and food, pool tables, bowling alleys and a lovely restaurant.
We would definitely stay here again.

Modern & clean. Staff were friendly & efficient. Dinner was good & breakfast excellent. Bed was comfortable.
Didn't like lack of radio in room & would have liked more storage drawers. Flashing light on smoke alarm (?) in room ceiling was a bit of a nuisance at night.

The property was exceptional in appearance, staff were very welcoming , friendly and helpful in all areas.
Food we had for dinner in evening was so good and the breakfast we ate in the morning was of an exceptionally high standard. Parking available outside which was free was an added bonus. Would highly recommend this hotel to others.

Lovely quirky hotel with great friendly staff. The rooms are stylish and clean. It’s in a small quiet village setting and makes a great base for visiting surrounding destinations like Bicester village and Oxford. The hotel has a nice bar with big screen tv and pool table, very pretty restaurant and it also has a small bowling alley!

From the moment we got to the Heyfords to when we left ALL the staff we dealt with were professional and friendly. We have never stayed here before but we made to feel like long term guests. We will definitely be returning to this amazing hotel.
