Fanfastically atmospheric old coaching inn, in an equally fantastic old market town, which seems to be dominated by a public school which has seemingly bought up several of the town centre buildings to expand, and in doing so has created a hogwarts like atmosphere

A lovely character hotel in a great location.
The food and service were excellent. Staff were particularly helpful, pleasant and professional. We were allocated an accessible room even though I hadn’t booked one. The large shower room was sadly lacking hooks/shelving on which to put things. Also the window would not open more than a fraction and looked as if it needed replacing. It was hidden behind a blind. The bedroom was huge and well equipped. There’s a nice relaxed atmosphere and the location in the centre of town is perfect. A lovely hotel, despite the shower room.

The Talbot Hotel is a well maintained, historical, comfortable Hotel in the region. I have stayed there in and out for about a month due to business purpose nearby. The stuffs are extremely friendly and helpful. It feels like "at home" whenever staying there.

This is a beautiful property in a very quiet and quaint town. The staff for the on-site restaurant and bar are friendly, although service is a little slow. The food is wonderful and the ambiance is old world charm and cozy.

A real gem
Only stayed for one night. We were upgraded to the Oundle Suite, and it's a very, very nice room, or should I say rooms. The hotel is a beautiful building dating back to 1600's snd is a collection of buildings with a unique character. Fantastic grounds, lit to perfection at night and looks like something from a fantasy movie. This is topped off with a wonderful eaterie and bar. The staff and manageress we lovely and could not do enough for us. We will definitely be returning.

Lovely stay in Oundle
A really lovely Hotel with very nice gardens in a lovely setting. We had an exec room which was great, had everything you could wish for and the bed was very comfortable. Only one small criticism that a mistake was made at breakfast and we waited over 45 minutes because the order was missed, but it can happen and it certainly didn't spoil our stay. We would return and I would reccomend the hotel and Oundle.

Bathroom could do with modernising and the cooked breakfast was not to my liking. Expected better quality for the price paid. However, cleanliness and staff service were excellent. Our room was also topped up with water, biscuits and coffee, as we stayed 2 nights. So not all bad.

A delightful hotel in the centre of Oundle. Staff all very friendly and helpful. The only issue was the shower head over the bath. We had to sort out the height of shower head and angle. Must people these days use a shower, so a cubital shower would have been much better. We accept that might be difficult for families with small children so suggest keeping a few rooms with baths. Some tiles surrounding bath need the mould treatment. When doing future updates to bathroom, would suggest a larger space for guests to place 'wash bags' etc. Toiletries supplied were very nice. All in all, a very nice stay.

Beautiful building and wonderful staff. I stayed here the night before my wedding with my bridesmaid and the night of my wedding with my husband. The staff were incredible and so welcoming even though my wedding was not at the hotel. They couldn’t have done more for me. The suite was beautiful, such an amazing room and the bathroom was out of this world! Thank you so much for everything you made our stay so special x
