The Lismore Hotel Banbury

My Wife,3 Children and I stayed at this hotel on the 11/4/09.We booked a room last minute for 2 Adults and three Kids with Breakfast this came to £80.A bargin.
Upon speaking to the manager on booking the room, despite the child age being classified as under 7 Years of age the Gentleman had no problems with accomadating my 9,12 and 18 year old Children.
Despite reading some poor reviews about this hotel on the internet as this stay was for one night only we were not too concerned.
However upon arrival at the Hotel it was clearly evident the owners have put in a considerable amount of time ,effort and money into improving this place, if reviews read are to be believed ,which it should be noted I do not question the honesty of such reviews, as the room we stayed in was very large clean and immaculate with a four poster bed and three single beds in the room yet still plenty of space to move around. I have stayed in some 4 and 5 star hotels and paid a small fortune yet the hotels was no where near as good.
Not only did the room have tea and coffee making facilities but cartons of orange juice for the kids,a little point but nice touch. The Hotel itself is full of British Charm and Charactor, which is good to see. Everywhere was in very good condition and both very clean and tidy.
The Breakfast the next day was superb.
I am the first to complain when things are not right, and rightly so, and therefore I believe in praise when things go right.
As previously stated, if reviews read are to be believed then the management of this Hotel have clearly taken on board such poor criticism and really turned this hotel into a wonderfull family friendly hotelin which to stay and enjoy.
I wish we could have stayed longer and we certainly hope to return again soon.
I wish to take this chance to thank the friendly Manager and his team for a great stay .
