    Not much to improve, perhaps wider evening food choices.

    Clean and spacious room in a quiet location in in the centre of Towcester. Great service and convenient parking on site. Ideal if you are visiting Silverstone.

    2 beds joined together. A bit uncomfortable in the middle with that ridge. Window a bit stiff to open.

    Friendly staff. Couldn't do enough for me. Very helpful. Will definitely go back.

    We had two rooms. Room 16 was great, room 19 was really really dated and my son said it looked haunted

    Easy to find, nice pub as well

    First, it's a very old (18c) town centre building, with a traditional pub bar, and the bedrooms could do with a bit of updating. BUT, the staff and all the services were superb, Plus the food for both our evening event and next morning's breakfast was excellent far exceeding the standards for this type of establishment.

    No drinking water available in the room as the bathroom tap water wasn't drinkable. The cold tap was warm. Giving this, I think botted water should have been put in the room, or at least warned about it and I would have brought some with me.

    Lovely place, very clean, the location is good, the food was great. Nice friendly staff.

    Room was very warm and a fan would have been helpful. White wine served in the bar was a bit warm too!

    Very impressed with this place, considering the reasonable price for the night. Room was a good size; bed was very comfortable and there was plenty of parking. Staff were friendly and helpful.

    The bed in our room creaked and didn't help with sleep, so we had to bolster it with pillows to sort it. But, hey-ho it's an old hotel and I'd still recommend it. I'll be back.

    The staff were lovely people..... all of them were so helpful. Attention to detail was always there..... down to superb strawberries on our champagne glasses to celebrate our daughter's wedding day! Thanks Tracy :-)

    The bathroom was clean and over the bath shower was good, but there was a few small maintenance matters that made it look uncared for. Holes not filled in under the towel rail. Black stick on skirting board breaking up and coming away. New sink pedestal fitted and the gap in flooring left. Mould on the grouting in a couple of places, which a bit of a well known product would have sorted out. These things are small and didn’t detracted from the overall value but niggled and if fixed would have meant no negative comments about this stay.

    Breakfast was excellent value for money. A choice of continental and or traditional, fresh pastries and fruit each morning and a decent cup of coffee. Hot food was very good, well presented and cooked fresh. Room was a nice size and beds comfy if a little soft. Restaurant staff friendly. Food good and excellent atmosphere. I was worried staying in a pub and our room was over the bar but by 11.30 at the latest all quiet and peaceful

    Only gripe was I booked a double room which I assumed meant a double bed not to single beds pushed together!

    I was greeted on arrival by a lovely lady who was so friendly and informative, straight away I felt relaxed. The room was spacious and comfortable with a good quality ensuite bathroom. Food and drink at the adjoining pub where good quality and value for money
