Always fantastic
Beautifully decorated to such an high standard and in an incredible building. It is quite clear there are no staff on site when booking - they are always available over the phone and very helpful.

Ideally situated for exploring Abingdon and the lo
Second stay at the hotel and by coincidence it was the same room.. Much easier to check in this time, the check-in is fully automated so having gone through the process previously this time it wasn’t an issue. The room is comfortable, not overly large but the bed is comfortable you have your own temperature thermostat and it’s clean, so all the major important boxes are ticked. Certainly, would not hesitate to use the hotel again.

really good value, room was very nicely finished and clean. The temperature was too hot and the thermostat didn't seem to make any difference. I struggled to find the WiFi log in details, they were hidden in some other text

Spacious, tranquil, gardens
Lovely modern spacious room with kitchenette and comfy bed. Parking with electric charger. Located in fabulous quiet back lane right next to ruined abbey and metres from both River and town centre. Hope to stay again. Carpet could do with a shampoo, head board not fixed properly, tv aerial not plugged in - all minor. No reception or dining, but automatic check in easy peasy. Will stay again.

Ok , not as good as photos on website
check in was painful as I never received an e mail with the hotel booking number only the Hotels.com itinerary number which didn't work . I had to contact Hotels.com who eventually provided what I asked for after a frustrating interaction with virtual agent . The room was ok but no desk so it meant i had to work on the bed . TV signal was intermittent so could not watch . Towels smelt a bit damp . As a basic a bottle of water in the room would have been good

We enjoyed the contrast between the historic building and surroundings and the high-tech, automated check in. The room was very tasteful and the ammenities made for a comfortable stay. Also, a perfect location to access Abingdon.

2/10 Poor
Sep 10, 2024
One of the worst hotel experiences I’ve had.
Zero service. Poor room layout. Terrible heat/cooling. Lack of tea and water. Terrible sound acoustics from court yard with window open to cool room. The place can only be described as a business hiring out rooms with a bed but nothing else.

We stayed at the property while visiting the Abbey Buildings for an event.
I was initially uncertain when I realised that it was a self check in and there weren't any staff, but actually it was fairly straightforward to get in.
The hotel is beautiful, really lovely decor, stylish and clean. The setting is lovely and we had a nice view of the Abbey Gardens.
The free parking and EV charger were great as well.
We would definitely stay again if visiting the area

Unfortunately my room wasn’t made up. There was a security guy who phoned management and I was upgraded to a wow room.
Shame no tea bags and left over bottles in cupboard.

Disappointed
What a disappointment. No soul and a lot of problems for a new hotel. No air conditioning. Broken windows. Decoration showing signs of flooding. As an ex Abingdon resident - this place is a disappointment to the town.
