Lovely old inn with character
Lovely historical pub with character, nice decor throughout. Room comfortable, with large powerful shower. Evening meal good with a good choice of beers and wines.
Breakfast good but charged for coffee separately which were poor, weak Americano’s
Overall a pleasant experience

Uncomfortable bed but friendly reception
Good parking. Friendly reception. Room was clean but I had a leaking toilet cistern all night and the bed was so uncomfortable. Location for my meeting was very good.

My sister and I had a fabulous stay at the Ostrich Inn, before heading off for our flight at Heathrow. It was in an excellent location, the accommodation was really comfortable and spacious, and the pub itself offers a delicious menu.

Amazing historic hotel with excellent restaurant
We always stay here the night before a flight from Heathrow. Amazing old hotel with a great history. Has been restored to a high standard but retaining it's old character. Staff always friendly. Superb bar and restaurant. Only a few minutes from T5

Lovely weekend getaway
The room was very cosy for our couples weekend get away! We got a bit cold but we were kindly given a portable radiator and soon we were very toasty. It was also interesting learning the history of the place as this is my third time staying at the Ostrich - but it made it all the more fun! It was also nice to see the exterior Christmas lights still up. I’ve always regarded this inn my happy place - thank you!
