The hotel is very pretty and nicely laid out, we were lucky to have sunshine so the restaurant garden looked welcoming on arrival. My room was nicely styled and the bathroom looked new. Staff were friendly (and a bit quirky) bustling about between hotel and restaurant. We had dinner on the property which was as good as you would eat anywhere and highly recommended.

It was a hot night and the hotel is on a main road so opening the window was too noisy. The rooms have no air conditioning and the fan supplied did a lot of spinning but didn't actually move any air - not sure how that happens. Assume on cooler nights this isn't an issue.

Reception was friendly and helpful and were then shown to our rooms, (which you don’t always get these days). Food was exceptional and staff were knowledgeable and well trained. We had booked a late Sunday lunch as the restaurant was closed from Sunday evening to Tuesday evening. The alcove we were given was cozy and comfortable, adding to the enjoyment of our meal. Breakfast was available to pre-book at various time slots and was unhurried, with continental breakfast options available too. Rooms were clean and well appointed but pillows were uncomfortable.

The hotel is situated on the A41 with the resulting constant transit of lorries outside our window very noisy, even through the night. This is an old building, having the benefit of secondary glazing to protect from drafts etc. but this was missing from the balcony door (room No. 4), making the room quite cold and noisy. After our late lunch we went to sit in the bar but were told it was now closed and there was no other communal area to relax in.

We have stayed here before and chose to stay again after a wine tasting at the local Waddesdon Manor. In this case the wine tasting was more a presentation about the origins of Rothschilds wine, an interesting tour of the wine cellar, and visitors only got to sample two glasses of their good wines, so we could have driven home. But we had already booked our room so we stayed. Five Arrows is a nice country hotel, built in the same attractive style as much of the older part of the village, and its comfortable inside. Good for a short stay or after visiting the manor. Staff were all friendly and the rooms were clean and comfortable.

On our visit they were short of staff, especially at breakfast, based on what I heard this appeared to be an ongoing problem. Because of the delay with our breakfast we considered leaving, but when breakfast did eventually arrive it was good quality.

What a delightful find. The whole place has some class and the food is delicious. By far the most comfortable bed we have ever slept in, in a hotel. But the most memorable thing about the Five Arrows is the staff, exceptional service. All in all made the stay feel like it was a home away from home.

One of the indoor plants needed watering (!! honestly, thats all the "didn't like" we have :)

The welcome from reception team !… Sally was lovely she was warm and welcoming. Our room was ready and she escorted us to it . The hotel was wonderful traditional and dressed for Christmas. Hotel ideally placed to visit the Manor! We loved also that we could eat our evening meal at the sister pub The Bow just up the road . Our breakfast in the hotel was great also .

Nothing really - just a slightly bigger room ! But this time round it was only one night so it was fine .

Liked that it was centrally located in the town the breakfast was exceptional and the staff were very accommodating. Availability of parking was excellent.

We arrived around 5 in the afternoon on Tuesday and the reception was closed. Then we had to call a number to find out about our room details. It was a strange welcome to an unfamiliar place.

You had to pre-order the breakfast the night before which meant that it was served at your chosen time. The breakfast was very good, cooked breakfast was not greasy and most enjoyable.

Our only criticism was that it would have been good to have a net curtain at the bedroom window. Our room was at the front of the hotel and was overlooked by houses on the opposite side of the road. Not a major problem but something for the hotel to think about.

The Five Arrows was perfect for our one night stay alongside our visit to Waddesdon Manor. The room was lovely and had everything that’s needed for a comfortable stay. Excellent food served in the restaurant. The grounds are easily accessible from the Hotel. The staff we encountered within the Hotel were all super friendly, in particular Sally at reception who provided phenomenal service.

The restaurant and staff were excellent. The staff went out of their way to be friendly and helpful. We eat out regularly, and this was one of the best restaurants we have come across.

The bedrooms were not air-conditioned in the bedrooms. Road noise was very loud with the windows open.

All of the meals were cooked to perfection, the staff were excellent and very friendly, nothing was too much trouble. The property was spotless. The shower over the bath was the most powerful I have ever had. The cost of food and drink was lower than I expected. The hotel sits at the bottom of Waddesdon Manor estate A National Trust property and probably the best house in the country.
