    A member of staff in the bar area was somewhat abrupt and not at all helpful.

    Lovely room, food was excellent and location perfect for T5.

    Breakfast starts at 0730 that prevents an early option like we used to get. The locals were not especially welcoming so we think it is time to find alternative options.

    We have preferred this property over the normal airport stock for a long time. The staff remain exceptional.

    The room's ensuite facilities weren't all together in a bathroom, they were seperate. Mostly disliked having the vanity in the main area as well as not having the warmth of a carpeted floor.

    Good location to Heathrow airport and M4 motorway.

    My room (3) was on the ground floor of the pub, facing the main road, so there was quite a bit of noise from traffic, in addition to aircraft landing and taking off from Heathrow. (But late at night it eased off and was quiter.)

    The room was a really good size, plenty of space. Great bathroom and shower. Ground floor room, so easy to access. The breakfast was really nice. The staff were friendly. The free car park was very helpful.

    There was a musty, mildew smell to the part of the building our room was in. Though the bed was comfortable? The pillows were lumpy. There is no counter space in the bathroom, no place for towels. There is no place to set things in the room. Could use a cabinet in bathroom with extra counter space.

    The service was wonderful. All of the staff were friendly and helpful. The food was amazing. I highly recommend the Osteich drink! Our room was very clean.

    It was a bit tough figuring out that we needed to enter the pub in order to check in. Perhaps a cute sign out front to guide guests to go through the pub to check in.

    The staff was so warm and welcoming. The food at the pub is excellent!

    My room was lovely and suited me perfectly. Although I’m glad it was quite grey & miserable weather, for had people been smoking & drinking outside, I’m guessing it could be quite noisy.

    I used to live nearby so when I needed somewhere to stay over it was my first choice.

    Nothing really, met all our expectations.

    Stop over before an early morning flight from Heathrow, but it exceeded my expectations regarding cleanliness and comfort. Food in the evening, although a little expensive (realise it is on the outskirts of London) was excellent.

    The lighting in the room was a little wonky.

    We stayed at The Ostrich on the last night of our two-week trip to England and it was the best food we had, both lunch and dinner. We saw breakfast served in the morning and were sorry to have to miss it. Absolutely charming. I hope to go again... I mean, it's been there since 1109.

    It was rather busy and the staff seemed preoccupied. Food took a while to arrive. But we were treated well.

    Location very convenient for Heathrow and more pleasant environment than a standard hotel. Interesting historic building. Excellent and convenient parking. Very comfortable room and good food. The Ostrich Strawberry gin is highly recommended.

    It's about an hour away from London's top sites, but so is London Heathrow Airport, so it is what it is. You can easily take the 703 bus and the tube (underground train, Picadilly line going towards Cockfosters) into the city, which is what I did, with no issues.

    Established in 1106 AD! I love this place--I've stayed here twice. It's beautiful, the pub is very good, the rooms are nice and comfortable, and it's only 10-15 minutes from London Heathrow Airport (terminal 5, use line 703).
