Cherry Tree May review

Our stay at the Cherry Tree was a comfortable stay for a business trip. The checking in system was efficient and the notifications from the owners were received in a timely manner and were very helpful and friendly in manner. We will definitely consider staying again on future business trips.

We stopped here as it is very convenient to the M40. We loved the charm of the building and the decor of the room we had was tasteful and beautiful ( Stag). Our ground floor room had a lovely open outlook over fields. Large bathroom. We had dinner in the restaurant which we really enjoyed although the hotel was very quiet. The owner could not have been more attentive. Lovely stay and good value for money.

A great hotel and a great nights sleep

A very helpful team for my late arrival. Everything was out in place and room access was straightforward. The room had a comfortable bed, a great TV, fridge and a good shower in the bathroom. The hotel was quiet at night which led to a great night’s sleep. Thank you The Chiltens Fox. I’ll be back.

Hidden little gem

Booked this hotel last minute as a stop over on the way to London and glad we did. The room was exceptionally clean and tidy as well as being well decorated and comfy. Quaint little bar and restaurant is attached, we didn't eat but did enjoy a drink in the courtyard style patio. We were given a ground floor room (named wisteria) that was a great size with a huge bathroom, the room had a smart TV and some very welcome air-conditioning during a heatwave. Would definitely stay again and even considering stopping on our way home.

Arrived relatively late (about an hour after my dinner booking at the time of last food orders) but was welcomed and well looked after by Tim and the team, not rushed at all, and fed and watered and entertained! Very lovely relaxed evening, great breakfast. Good food, comfortable and unpretentious. Hugely preferable to an airport hotel if you are on your way to Heathrow the next day, as I was - 30-40 minutes drive depending on traffic. But would definitely come and stay again regardless.

Beautiful little stay, lovely staff

Absolutely lovely stay at the chiltern fox! Our babysitter cancelled on us last minute and we had a night away for our anniversary with wine tasting so had to cancel the wine tasting and added our 4 month old to our stay at the chiltern fox and they were so accommodating to us for our little boy! they upgraded our room for us as we informed them our situation which was so kind! the room was beautiful and the service and food was fantastic, we felt really looked after! It’s a beautiful little stay, out of the way which is nice. We’re looking forward to rebooking again when we redo our wine tasting!

On arrival it was a poor check in experience a table in the bar that can’t sell alcohol as it has no licence. No information as to breakfast times etc. So didn’t have it. Room was very nice but cold had to ask for heating to be put on in hotel. Went out for a meal got back at 830 from door locked. Had to bang on window to get attention. Staff have no clue how to do service. I also kept getting messages saying my room had been cancelled which it hadn’t.

Broken promises

We arrived at 4pm on a Sunday, we asked if we could book a table for evening meal & was told the kitchen closes in one hr, we decided to eat straight away even though we had only eaten our lunch 2 hrs before, the meal was very good. I asked what time we could have breakfast tomorrow, they said the chief was off, I pushed them and they agreed to get someone to come in to prepare. When we went down the next day for breakfast, there was a note at the bottom of the stairs saying, sorry no staff, no breakfast!!!

WOW, WOW, WOW!!

I was given a ground floor room. Was amazed when I stepped into the bedroom. It had a desk, 2 bottles of water, one still and one sparkling. It boasted a really comfy lounge chair and a bed that was so comfortable that I didn't want to get out of it! The bathroom was large with in one corner a freestanding bath with a shower attachment. In the centre of the bathroom was a double sink and in the other corner a fabulous walk-in shower. It had a rainforest shower head and a separate shower attachment. Everywhere in the hotel was very clean. Customer service was brilliant and the staff couldn't do enough for their guests. I stay in a lot of hotels and if this was in the city centre, it would be at least double the price! I can't rate this hotel highly enough and genuinely would recommend it to everyone and anyone 5*

One to avoid

Said they hadn’t received the notification of my booking so had to prove it with the confirmation email. A really unfriendly welcome. Having been emailed after I had booked to say to bring my own wine to the restaurant (they had no alcohol licence), they then tried to make me pay it and denied that I had been told there was no alcohol being served so I had to show him the email the hotel had sent to make myself believed, point out the large sign by the bar that said to BYO and the fact that the waitress had provided glasses. Made to feel like I was a liar and an inconvenience (even though I was the only one there!). A really uncomfortable experience. However the room itself was lovely, the food on the one occasion I ate there was great and with a little light, heating, atmosphere and music, it could have been lovely so maybe my experience was down to one individual. Had they behaved differently this could have been a very positive review.

Pleasant but very average and needs improvements

The hotel looks very appealing from the outside and in a lovely location. We were happy with our first impression. As we checked in, we were welcomed with a heavy smoke in the bar area which we blamed on where they may have just lit the fire but this lasted all evening unfortunately. The food at dinner was outstanding, so tasty and the staff were very friendly & attentive. Our room was extremely hot and we tried to turn the radiator down but we were only able to turn it down slightly so had to sleep with the windows wide open all night. The room was pleasant and tidy. The bathroom was average and I think could benefit from a little TLC in areas due to slight rust in places and built up limescale on the shower head and shower doors. Due to this built up limescale and half the door hanging off its hinge, you weren’t able to close the shower door. Breakfast was delicious, coffee was lovely but the smoke made it unpleasant again as the whole bar area was full of smoke, we’ve come home and stink of smoke unfortunately. Even with the best efforts of opening the windows, it was still an issue. I think the bar area & restaurant would benefit with some music or some sort of background noise as it was very quiet and awkward. Overall a nice pleasant stay, very average but definitely needs some improvement.
