A little gem!

Excellent establishment, under new management. Stayed here for a week on business. Neil, Bill and the rest of their team made me feel very welcome and nothing was ever too much trouble. The food was fantastic and the service even better. Would highly recommend. A little gem just off the M40! Will stay again for sure...

Good stopover

Really great service ! Some nice features like iron, sky tv, good WiFi (40mb+) etc and breakfast was really lovely. Decor is a little dated, and ok yes I booked last minute but price was high for the quality - that said - it’s still a good stopover if you need a bed, clean shower and good food

Home from Home

I stay over on business in Banbury on a regular basis; occasionally a town centre location is appropriate but when it's not the Bowling Green is my first port of call. Phil and Karen always extend a warm welcome; the food choices and drink choices are excellent; I've never been disappointed. Rooms are fairly basic, but spacious and comfortable with good wifi and a Sky package which includes Sports. There is a private outdoors seating area which would benefit from a little refurbishment but is nevertheless a pleasant place to be on a summer day and adequately segregated from the family geese! As a home from home, I can thoroughly recommend.

Restful Stopover

I stay in Banbury for work on a regular basis; Phil and Karen are most welcoming and flexible hosts - good food from a varied and well priced menu and the availability of premium TV channels is pretty much unique in the area

The Bowling Green.

I stayed one night en route to a business appointment. The room had everything I needed, it was clean, had tea and coffee making facilities, the en suite was clean (I loved the shower).the linen was fresh and once again clean. My evening meal was, good home cooking, the vegetables were lovely and fresh. The breakfast (I had full English) was excellent and set me up for the day. the service was excellent, I would definitely recommend the hotel, if I am in the area I will stay there again Thanks.

Pleasant Surprise

I have driven by the location of this hotel and never noticed it before. It is close to the M40, however the double glazing keeps out 90% of the noise. The room I was in had twin beds, the one I slept in was very comfortable and I had a good night's sleep. The food in the bar was very tasty, and the portions were a good size. Not one of those posh nosh places where your still hungry afterwards. Also the breakfast the following morning was lovely. The only drawback on the night I stayed was the internet was down. It was slightly annoying, as I did have work to do which meant I couldn't complete the days reports, but one of those things I guess. I would stay again, good room, good food and polite staff.

Comfortable and Friendly

Regular overnight stop when on business in Banbury. If you want to be in the middle of town and all that entails, this is not the place for you. If you want friendly staff, comfortable rooms, good food and drink coupled with peace and quiet, free wifi and Sky Sports, then you can't go wrong.

Great place!

This is a really nice hotel, located just outside Banbury. It was well located for Silverstone race track and for Banbury town centre. I stayed there for 2 nights and particularly enjoyed the breakfast. The staff were friendly and very amenable. I appreciated the fact the owners emailed the day before to say that the door would be locked so I needed to press the intercom in order to gain access. I knew what to expect when I arrived. The room was very clean and spacious. The bathroom was quite small, but it was usable. One downside was the wifi which kept cutting out. This might be because other guests were using it, but it did seem quite low speed. My main issue was with other guests, who were noisy! But the owners are not at fault. The restaurant is very busy, but space is always reserved for hotel guests, which I appreciated. The food was delicious. I would very much recommend this hotel as it was a lovely place to stay.

Weekend Break

Enjoyed our stay at the Bowling Green, the accomodation was clean, room a little on the small side, particularly the bathroom. The food at the Bowling Green was excellent and very good value, we dined in on 3 nights and were not disappointed by anything, also breakfast was very good. Overall an enjoyable and good value stay.
