Unique property but not even remotely luxurious. Clean and spacious but sparse. Uncomfortable furniture in the sitting room. Poor lighting throughout (especially the bathroom). Friendly staff. If you are looking for anything more than a 2.5 star experience look elsewhere. If you don’t care about comfort and want a great location this is for you

Tired building,great staff

The place is very tired and needs a lot of work The room we had was small and at the front of the hotel and therefore noisy. The chair in the room was stained. In the bathroom the tap in the basin first would not give us cold water and then stopped working completely. The staff were great and did what they could to help with bottles of water.

The room was clean and pleasant with an outdoor seating area. The parking was convenient if not cheap. I had intended to dine in the hotel restaurant on my one night stay, but there was no one around to welcome me, show me to a table, hand me a menu etc so I ate elsewhere.

Characterful coaching inn situated in this lovely market town. My room was large, warm, with a four poster bed, clawfoot free standing bath in my ensuite, and French doors opening onto the small garden. Excellent breakfast.

Disappointing stay

I have stayed here previously a few years ago now.But today it is looking rather tired. It needs a refurbishment and bringing up to date. The tv didn't work very well the toiletries were in sufficient. there was a very loud noisey pump next to the bedroom wall. The breakfast menu was very limited in its options. Needfess to say i ate out every night during my stay.

Was upgraded as Room 6 very small and old fashioned. Not happy to pay £5 to park in the hotel car park (hotel doesn't own the car park behind it). This could, and I am sure will once again, become a destination hotel and I'm aware that renovation work is ongoing. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Best situated hotel in the town (central). I wish the hotel success in the future.

pretty happy in Thame

Loved the town and the people. Hotel is perfectly located. Hotel is also in need of some upgrades and they know it. Historical appreciation only takes you so far. Comfort is key. Replace the damned tubs with showers only. You could kill yourself getting out of that tub. Like baths?? Stay in London or go back to the 18th century. Loved the towel warmers.

The hotel is very tired and desperately need an update. The blind in my room did not work the bathpanel was taped in place and there was no bath plug. No info in rooms regarding Hotel (e.g. WIFI code) The bed was very comfortable and linen was clean. Breakfast was mediocre at best. I don't think I will be back

The staff at this hotel are great. All staff were helpful, professional and welcoming. Unfortunately, the hotel needs major refurbishment. The decorations are tired and worn, paint chipped, the heating is very wasteful and old. We were pleased that our room had been upgraded, but we had to be moved, as the heating pipes for the radiator in the corridor outside were situated right behind the bed, making noise which made it difficult to sleep. The staff were very helpful in offering another room, but the radiators are difficult to control, so we had to have a window open in the middle of winter. It is a shame that such good staff are working in a run-down environment that needs total refurbishment. You will find many little quibbles, such as bottomed-out chairs that need re-upholstering, just because everything needs overhauling. The location is excellent, right in the centre of Thame, with lots of great cafes, restaurants and pubs.

Lovely suite at the Spread Eagle

We booked a suite at the Spread Eagle. It was excellent, very spacious, over two floors, which was good for me as I dislike sleeping on the ground floor. The bed was a super king, which is always a gold star as that's what we are used to at home. One of the most comfortable beds we've ever encountered in a hotel. The bathroom had a good sized shower and an excellent bath-wider than the normal hotel bath. I would have liked a little information in the room about the wifi, the restaurant, menu etc. We chose not to have dinner as we had visited relatives earlier and didn't feel we needed another meal. The breakfast was a little disappointing. It took some time to come-the waitress apologised for the delay-and when it arrived it appeared to have been standing for a while. The sausage was overcooked and one bacon rasher was hard. There was a good supply of coffee and plenty of bread and pastries. There was no fruit available. Overall we were happy with our stay and we will probably return as we visit in the area regularly

Needs updating and more attention to detail.

We booked an Executive Room however it was only average. The French Doors had bolts, one bolt was impossible to open. The wi-fi didn’t work. The shower wouldn’t stop dripping but at least the door stopped us hearing it all night. The wardrobe door wouldn’t shut properly. Despite it being a hardwood floor there wasn't even a rug/mat at the side of the bed. The bed and pillows were extremely comfortable. When ordering our Evening Meal instead of Caesar Salad a plate of pasta was delivered. The salad was advertised as being with Gem Lettuce leaves however it was served with drenched iceberg lettuce leaves with pieces of ham instead of lardons. There was no yogurt available at breakfast. The general decor and carpets looked extremely tired.

I can identify with many of the bad reviews listed. I have stayed here several times in recent years because it is convenient for family visits - there is no other option in the center of Thame. The staff do their best but the impression is of disinterested owners who are happy to run the place into the ground for the sake of profit. I get the impression that the place is understaffed and that the staff are given little/no authority to resolve issues. Arrived at check in time to be greeted by a sign saying “call this number if reception is unattended”. No one answered the phone. The other couple waiting to checkin went to the restaurant and were told that someone would be along soon. 15 mins later someone did arrive to tell us the rooms weren’t ready yet. Our room was fine but had a smashed electrical socket at the vanity table with live electrical wires exposed - lethal. Surely the cleaners would have noticed and reported it? It’s really run down and it’s obvious that minimum money is being spent on maintenance and repairs. Staff as friendly and as helpful as they can be.
