Staff were all lovely and incredibly helpful. I was checked in and served in the bar by a young man whose name I didn't get, but he said he was supporting from the Bedford hotel. He was super helpful despite not being 100% familiar with the hotel and did his best to answer my questions about parking etc.

We had very good sleep at a big, clean and high standard room. Great location for shopping (about 15 mins walk to Bicester Village, outlet shops and garden centre). Breakfast options were good. We are repeat customers happy to come back. There’s one thing that could be improved, 15 mins before our check out time the house keeper knocked and opened our door while I was in the bathroom. I had hung the notice (We are still in sign) on the door and use the inside lock. I have spoken and mentioned it to the receptionist Daniel. He was so helpful. I hope the train their housekeeper better. But in overall, we are happy with this hotel and we will be back.

First time in a Holiday Inn and very impressed! Extremely clean, spacious rooms and great shower! The free breakfast was great as well, better than some hotel breakfasts you pay for. Super convenient for Bicester Village too, literally a 4 min drive. Would look to stay in a Holiday Inn over some of their competitors in the future.
