Tim Couples - 26/07/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

We were attending the opera at Garsington and the hotel is 15 minutes away, so was ideal. We were very warmly greeted at reception, everything ready etc. We selected the cheapest room available (as it was only a brief stay) but it was very clean, well presented and comfortable. We had an enjoyable breakfast (the only minor gripe being that the coffee from the machine was not the best) and check out was again very simple and friendly.

This was the 4th time staying at this hotel, the previous three occasions we had courtyard rooms. This time we were allocated rooms in the main hotel. The room was small, which is ok. However the bathroom was way past the time for updating. The plastic trim on the bath/shower was black with mould. I asked for it to be cleaned and someone came immediately. What I don’t understand is how it could b3 so dirty and no 9ne noticed or cleaned routinely. The best thing about this hotel is the staff they are excellent. I will visit again but will insist on a courtyard room.

Richard Friends - 26/07/2021 Confirmed reviews ALL

Rooms, staff and restaurant, were all very satisfactory - sadly a resident Conference meant that all outside spaces were out of bounds for the bulk of our stay. Having paid the full rack rate and having reserved months in advance, we were disappointed to be treated as second class citizens.

I note your comments about the outdoor spaces being booked out to a corporate conference. As advised the event finished at 2pm and the whole of the outside areas again become available to all. Thank you again for sharing your experience, and we hope your next visit will be as pleasant as the previous one. Sincerely, Mark Tulett General Manager

Portcred 25/07/2021 TripAdvisor review

This was my second visit to Thame Lambert - we returned because we wanted a hotel with generous outside spaces for both eating and leisure. Unfortunately there was a conference and the dining patio and gardens were out of bounds until 'officially' 2:00 pm of our second day. In reality, although the conference finished around that time, the debris remained for a couple of hours and rendered the garden unusable. Apart from that, the staff were all extremely helpful, the food both at breakfast and dinner, was very good and our room was excellent - clean and comfortable. It was just a pity that a courtesy call from the management to warn us of the conference and their requirements, was not made. I imagine that the superb weather prompted the conference organisers to request the exclusive use of the grounds - management shoud not forget clients who are paying full price, NOT corporate rates, deserve to be treated as equalls, if not priority guests. We mentioned this both during our stay and at check out - we were told that our comments would be passed on to management - if they were, we still haven't heard anything from them.

Great sized room and gym availability!

This was an overnight stay before seeing family and having a business meeting nearby and it did not disappoint. The luxury of a very large bedroom and bathroom was a real treat. We pre-booked dinner and breakfast both of which were very good though the prices on the menu had gone up significantly from what was showing online. We will definitely stay again.

No evening meal,as they had run out of gas for cooking,

Dear ANDREW B., Thank you for taking the time to tell us about your experience at the Mercure Thame Lambert Hotel. I am sorry that your experience did not meet your expectations; please allow me to express my sincerest apologies. The gas issue was caused by a faulty valve on the gas flow and it locked out the gas to the kitchen thus preventing us from offering a full dinner menu. The team responded to this challenge by offering a make shift menu with certain food products that we are able to offer. We were in the hands of the supplier to rectify the issue that night and unfortunately the engineer that was called had to travel from Coventry to get to the hotel which is not ideal and we have taken this up with the supplier. I am so very sorry that this incident happened and can assure you this is something we have addressed and moving forward we feel this is unlikely to happen again, but public safety is our prime concern when such an incident arises. At Mercure, we strive to provide a superior service experience for every customer; therefore your feedback is very important to us. Please rest assured that we are taking the appropriate measures to address the problem and prevent future occurrence. We appreciate your sharing your concerns, and it is our hope that you will give us the opportunity to better serve you in the near future. Sincerely, Mark Tulett General Manager
