visit

The room was very clean,our visit was for one night there was no reception, our only complaint was ,there was no summer duvet we were just to hot ,although there was air conditioning we wanted to sleep with the windows open,but were still to hot. Hotels .com is an excellent company we would recommend anyone to book with them.When we had a serious problem health problem last year they could not have been more compassionate caring and helpful towards us .

Amazing as always

I always enjoy my stay here - the building is beautifully renovated with fantastic interiors but keeping the charm of the house too. Self check in, but always someone on the other end of the phone should you need it.

A beautiful building with stunning, high end converted rooms, right in the heart of Abingdon. Parking & check-in was easy. I’d read other reviews so knew Old Abbey House is not really a hotel as there are no staff, but this was not a problem. We stayed in a Deluxe Suite which was gorgeous, lovely bed, decor & furnishings and a fridge & cooker too. Top tip if you are staying more than 1 night I stand your own teabags, coffee & milk, as a very small supply is in the room. I’d highly recommend this place for a peaceful getaway in a great location.

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.

After a stressful afternoon caused by some hotel booking foul ups we got a last minute booking here. Once in the room both of us felt an air of calm and relaxation. Both had a really good night’s sleep. As we didn’t stay in a suite with a kitchen we ate at the Crown & Thistle less than 100 metres walk away. Looking back on our stay there was an aura of monastical peace and tranquility. Next time we are in Abingdon this will be our place to stay.

Great property with clean, well laid out room. We loved staying in such an old historic building, with new rooms and amenities. Located in the old town area, it is walking distance to restaurants and cafe’s. The market on Monday’s was an unexpected bonus.
