Stay away!!

Appalling, only thing clean was bedding, boiling water coming from both hot and cold taps, trip hazzard from bathroom to bedroom re carpet away from floor. No kitchen facilities on site although was advertised for breakfast. Cleaning staff friendly and helpful. Apart from when we checked in there was never anyone around at reception so nobody to voice our complaints to. We were booked for a 3 night stay but left very early after one night to move to another hotel., didnt even unpack!! We would not have stayed that one night if we could have booked another hotel but it was bank holiday weekend and everywhere was booked up.

The staff were friendly but the room was very tired. Whilst the bed was very comfy, the shower was mouldy and didn't work. The carpets were coming up at the corners and the whole room needed some tlc. There were bulbs missing from light fixtures and one of the windows wouldnt stay open due to the rope being broken. If you want more than basic this isn't for you. But we felt welcomed and slept well. Its a good location and the free car parking was a bonus for town centre.

The hotel was basic and good value for money. Beds were comfy and the room clean. We had an evening meal in the restaurant, there was a very limited menu, but what we had was excellent value for money just wished there had been more choice. Breakfast was lovely we only had the small breakfast but we felt there was plenty of it. Staff are so friendly and we felt at home from the minute we walked in. All trying very hard to make sure we had all our needs met.

It’s barely 2 star. Access is not good for an 80 year old, my case was carried up to my room on arrival. Room was clean, plenty of clean towels, tea and coffee, milk, and bottled water. This was essential as the water from the tap in the bathroom was undrinkable. I never had Wi-fi and to make matters worse my tv didn’t work. I reported it at 6.30 pm on the first night. Nothing was done, when I returned on Wednesday evening it still was not working, 2 very nice young guys came up and eventually worked out the hand set needed new batteries. These were obtained and tv was working. Although on a main road it was not noisy. I really feel this hotel is grossly overpriced.

GOOD STAY.

The Kings Arms Bicester is a very friendly, comfortable hotel. We were made to feel welcome and were looked after during our stay. Breakfast was great. The hotel was spotlessly clean as was our room. The bed linen and towels were so white it was so good to see. Special thanks to Stacey and Chloe the chef who is very humerous. The car park was ideal for us. We parked our car and walked the 10 minutes to the shopping village. Bicester town centre is across the road from the Kings Arms and is pedestrianised. It is colourful with the planters and trees in bloom.

My initial impressions were OK, I couldn’t get WiFi in my room and was upgraded without any fuss. My new room was large and the bed very comfortable. It was, however, very hot and the window opened but didn’t stay open and I had to use a hanger to keep it open. The fan provided rattled off of the side and was too noisy to use. The bathroom was spacious and looked clean but the tap dripped constantly and the tiles were lifting off of the floor. I could have forgiven all this but on my last night the experience I had was, in my opinion, unforgivable II couldn’t get the key to open the main door. I was stuck on a busy road, with lots of drunk revellers and I was a solo female. I called the number on the door and the man that arrived was very rude. He tried my key and of course it worked, and he accused me of being rude! The look on his face was extremely intimidating and made me more nervous than I was when stuck outside. I tried to apologise but he continued to be aggressive. I understand that I was at fault but it was 11.45pm and I was flustered, he was on call and presumably it is part of his job to help customers, even if they are stupid!

Appreciated cost of the public car park was covered by the hotel. And the guy who checked me in was friendly, but he didn’t ask my name or anything just handed me a key and front door card - I could have been anybody so would recommend formalising process. I just felt the quality of the access/room and overall accommodation experience and usability elements weren’t as good as they could be: Building and bedroom interior was quite old and could do with a refurbishment to doors, bathroom and bed in particular. Door key was quite tricky to unlock and get key back out as kept getting stuck. Would be better to have keyless access to rooms. Single bed felt smaller than others I’ve slept in, which wasn’t comfortable to lie in as an adult. Lots of hotels use slightly larger singles to increase comfort so would recommend purchasing those or using a standard double even for single occupancy. I’m not particularly tall but my feet poked out off end of bed with a duvet that was badly fitted into the cover (excess material 2feet or so). Could have done with an extra pillow or different sizes offered so people can choose their optimal neck height. TV signal wasn’t great on lots of channels. Any slight movement in the room or lying in the bed and the display would distort - had to keep shifting position of tv to get picture/sound. Back external access door to the hotel wasn’t in operation which meant had to walk from car park round front of building- wasn’t ideal with luggage in the rain.
