Room upgrade as original room cold. Room could have had a rug to make it more comfy. Heated towel rail was rusty and didn't work. Food and staff excellent.

The menu was unimaginative and some food disappointing. Our chosen wine wasn't available and the replacement was just plonked on the table without ceremony. Our 'superior' room had a good bathroom except for a rusty and not-heating towel rail and there was an underlying industrial noise from the hotel's heating system. The room was large but sparsely furnished and decorated, contrasting with the quirky-abundance of post-impressionist and surrealist images in the dining room.

Most staff were pleasant and helpful except for the one wine waiter who plonked our unopened screw top bottle on the table without comment.

Surprised & offended when they attempted to add a 12.5% service charge to a glass of wine.

Atmospheric old inn with so much history for the culturally minded. The food is very good with ample size portions too. Staff friendly and helpful but I would say my Only small gripe is they seem understaffed in the restaurant which impacts on time being served drinks and food. Other than that, very good indeed..

We stayed for one night on a dinner, bed and breakfast rate - fantastic value. All staff were helpful and polite. Dinner was tasty. Hotel location was perfect for a walk along the Thames and an afternoon in Henley.

Several, items that were described on Menu were not available as described (Lack of herb butter & Peppercorn Sauce) with not being informed prior to ordering! Picked up on serving hence lack of poor service too! Bed could do with a headboard to assist with support of pillows and fan not working in bathroom, though room was decorated nicely. The bar and additional seating area after having evening meal lacked any real atmosphere or cosiness that one would normally associate with an older property. Lastly, as there was a wedding being undertaken in the adjacent tithe barn, the sound properties of the room were severely lacking resulting in a headache and unease until midnight when admittedly the noise level vastly reduced.
