Great venue, poor staff.

Hotel was great, reception staff very helpful. Dining room, bar. Young staff who don’t know how to communicate, tables left uncleared, when we requested a table for dinner we had to request it be cleared. This was done, we further asked it be wiped, they never did this. Left waiting at table, no one advised us menus were at the bar. Food served, two knives and one fork in the table pot. Just all in all frustrating, no one seems to care about service anymore. If you’re going to employ youngsters with no face to face skills whatsoever, pleased teach them how to operate in the hospitality industry. Spoilt that aspect of our stay.

A lovely and memorable stay

We have been to The Cotswolds many times, but this is the first time staying at the Prince of Burford. We were made very welcome from the beginning and was even offered a complimentary drink on arrival, which you don’t get in all hotels. Room was lovely, spacious, clean and comfortable. Food was outstanding and the staff very attentive, friendly; all members of staff went above and beyond even though they were short staffed and busy. Special thanks to Jake, who served us dinner one evening, for his friendliness, advice on food choices and exceptional service. Many thanks to the Manager Chris and his wife for also making our stay one to remember. We will have no hesitation in recommending the Prince of Burford to our friends and family, and we will most definitely be back! Paul & Lynne W

A really beautiful stay. The staff at the property were so friendly and nothing was too much trouble. The room was beautifully decorated and the fresh cookies each day were a treat! Have already been recommending to friends.
