Very welcoming. Delicious food. Value for money.Comfortable room. Quiet. Would recommend . ##### Elisabeth Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### STEWART 7 Oct 2025 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Really lovely The room was lovely-much better than I’d expected. The staff were very friendly. We had an evening meal and although the menu range was quite limited, I still had trouble choosing and what you are eventually served with is high quality and presented really carefully. The only blot on the copybook was that my Mum, who I was sharing with, was the first to use the toilet and on lifting the lid was greeted by a bowl full of pungent waste. Other than that this was a lovely place to locate ourselves for access to Oulton Park ##### STEWART Stayed 1 night in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Violet 13 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Wonderful weekend A lovely 2 night stay. The Royal Oak had everything we needed. The bedroom and bathroom were spacious and airy. We appreciated the quiet room as we had early starts at the nearby Oulton Park race circuit. Lovely garden areas too and welcoming and helpful manager. We will make this our hotel of choice when in the area. ##### Violet Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 21 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Lovely old building, spacious rooms Room was lovely, spacious , bathroom was spacious and clean. Shower was great. Building is really old so big high ceilings old windows etc . Would definitely stay again. We had breakfast which was great apart from our toast arrived some time after breakfast, seems a bit petty but they weren’t busy and a really simple fix, they also only brought white so I had to go and find someone for some brown. However, the breakfast was nice. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### martin 6 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Excellent all round.
