Mollie's Motel and Diner

Another nice stay but this time the hot water tap was not working on my floor to be able to enjoy a hot drink in the morning. There was one functional one by the desk but often short on milk too for example. Just needs and little more attention to detail. But beds very comfortable and still one of the best showers in hotels I’ve been .

Absolutely loved my stay at Mollie’s motel, everything I expected from the pictures of the property and more. Felt like I was staying in a Spa! Food in the diner was lovely and such a huge choice. Will definitely be back!

Excellent stay as usual, stayed here 15 times at least now and is constantly reliable. Clean, tidy, friendly place to stay with a lovely bit of design in the mix.

Lovely stylish and peaceful roadside spot. Fab lively restaurant for breakfast and dinner. Friendly staff. Definitely not only half an hour into central Oxford though, unless you've got a sports car and leave at 3am.

great meal and service.

Clean, comfortable room, lovely bed & pillows. Convenient free parking Nice amenities

Friendly staff, room was a good size and very clean. Overall we were very happy and satisfied with our stay. We miss having a fridge in our rooms when travelling and not having face washers provided.

Excellent beds

Great place to stay. Staff very helpful and friendly at a check-in after 10pm. Restaurant for breakfast was excellent quality.

Really great plce to stay, would really recommend mollys.

Pleasant hotel with excellent, helpful staff.

Excellent hotel, contemporary design, on site EV chargers both slow and rapid versions, fantastic dinner next door and very reasonably priced what’s not to like!

The air con doesn’t work and that’s with moving rooms the windows don’t open so can even get fresh air that way so room was very hot .. not a fan of no kettle and having to go outside of room to be able to make hot drinks .Unfortunately this hotel is not for us the only reason I gave a higher rating was because the staff was nice

Great place to stay and excellent diner next to the motel 😊

A convenient place to stay with chilled vibes. Excellent hairdryer and straighteners !

Excellent value for money, loved the reception area and the decor in the rooms. Very comfy bed and great facilities in the room, such as a dyson hairdryer and GHD straighteners. Would highly recommend.

Really impressed with the room. Nice and modern, great price, great features too. Ate at the diner and the food was really tasty and cooked fresh. Will definitely be staying again

Decent hotel for a couple of nights, great facilities and convenient diner on site

Easy access to the motel and diner. Room very good and the bed was very comfortable. Free hot water for drinks from water dispenser in the corridor. Staff very pleasant and helpful especially Daryl, she was brilliant.

This motel and the Diner is really lovely,I work away quite often.The tv didn’t work in the room to start with…the staff sorted it out no problem at all.Its screw and air conditioned. The diner gets so busy so book. I would recommend this place,both of them 100%!

Its a budget hotel, but excellent facilities. Definite recommendation for those folks wanting to do a Cotswolds weekend but baulking at paying stupid money!

The room was perfect for me and had one of the most comfortable hotel beds I’ve ever slept in. The staff were excellent - friendly and helpful at all times. I had both dinner (click and collect) and breakfast (eat in) at the diner and the food was fantastic.

Nice modern motel with modern rooms and spacious. Has a gas station with m&s which is very convenient and the diner was also great. Its around half an hours drive to oxford.

Highly recommended

Fantastic hotel, great night sleep. Breakfast v good.

Good modern clean hotel and facilities

Very spacious room, clean with lovely big bed

Absolutely fantastic, loved our stay, clean, modern, great staff, felt more expensive than it actually was, unfortunately dont do breakfast in the price but apart from that, first class.

Great staff, always welcome every time we come.

Nice

Hotel was great. But an hour into our stay, the reception desk muat have printed another key or allocated it to someone else as someone just wondered into our room while we were in there. However the receptionist at the time did massively apologise and gave us two free drinks. The food in the diner is also really good and i recommend the flatiron steak.

Motel part great dining dreadful as had to wait so long we were stressed before our wedding

Our stay was amazing we booked last minute after being let down by another venue on the day. The receptionist was very helpful her name was Darryll, our room and the facilities were first class. We would definitely stay here again.

Very comfortable, convenient fit my needs staff super friendly.

Stayed here for 1 night and was very impressed. The quirkiness of the motel was a nice touch especially having the diner opposite. The staff were very welcoming and very friendly. They were always on hand to help when needed. There is not much within walking distance of the hotel but plenty a short drive or bus ride away. Would recommend and will be staying again!

Very friendly motel. Service was great and the room was ok for a long weekend . Having a restaurant next door is a bonus.

We loved our stay. Check in was easy, the hotel and our room was so clean. The amenitiea were great including the EV charging

What a fabulous time we had staying at you facility, we loved everything about it, locality to some beautiful country pubs on the river, the Cotswolds and all it has to offer, your beautiful diner and wonderful staff, our room was everything we could have asked for, we will definitely be booking with you again, many thanks Teresa & Ian

Fantastic retro vibes with modern facilities, clean and super friendly staff

Clean and modern American style Motel

Great stay, everything spotless, very comfortable beds, the staff couldn’t do enough for you. I would however have preferred a kettle in the room rather than the quooker tap in the corridor.

Brilliant stay

Great stay, had a few issues to start with for the app and digital keycard but receptionists was lovely to help. Good size rooms with very comfortable bed. Loved the ghd straighteners and dyson hair dryer and best shower ever!

Second year covering the Witney festival and this is the only hotel we will use when working in Oxford

Shower was excellent

Was wonderful

Clean , lovely staff, was a shame we didn’t get a key to rooms as there was a problem and room very hot and stuffy but staff were apologetic and welcoming

All the facilities you need, clean and secure.

Excellent as always!

Really enjoyable stay, I will definitely stay here again and recommend to others.

Really enjoyed our stay here. Room was lovely bar a very large dark dirt mark across one of the chairs. Great location and so quiet despite being so close to the main road! Slightly disappointed by the diner as when we got there half the menu was not available due to not having enough ingredients. Other than that would highly reccomend this hotel for a staycation

It’s an American style Motel, new building, basic room which has everything you need except for a telephone. At check in we were assigned a ground floor room, we requested an upper floor room and the receptionist was kind enough to accommodate our request. The TV in the room was not working, the receptionist tried his best to get it working, however he was unsuccessful since he was the only one who was working. The hotel parking facility had an abundance of charging stations, ranging between slow and super fast. The hotel is situated in forest type environment. The diner is separate from hotel and you can have your breakfast there. There is an M&S shop and you can provide everything you need.

A pleasant and convenient location to stay for driving around the Cotwolds area. Staff were very helpful with reception open 24 hours.

Excellent affordable and convenient

Wow. What a great setup! 24/7 reception and bar/lounge. Lovely garden seating area. Next door to a diner, and a fuel station with minimart. A GHD hair straightener, and dryer in the room! In the hall a chilled water and hot water dispenser. Modern and nicely decorated. Lots of parking. Quiet area. Comfortable bed and good pillows :) The price was amazing for the quality of the accommodation. The lounge area also has an area for you to make a takeout coffee/tea on departure (with cups) , and sparkling water dispenser.

Very different hotel, a very refreshing design clean, quiet, best shower ever. 10/10

Booked a weekend here for my partners birthday. I messaged a few days before asking if anything could be left in the room on arrival (not everywhere does it but worth a try), to my delight they said a card and some bits will be left in the room. Arrived and nothing was left which was disappointing. Messaged the hotel, they apologised and told us a note has been left on our breakfast reservation for a small discount. Upon receiving the bill after we ate, shock, no discount applied. Embarrassingly had to speak to someone again and show them the message. We also had dinner at the diner. Saw a few reviews saying service was slow but this wasn’t the case. Service was quick and polite. The food however wasn’t great. I’ve only ever sent back food once in my life and this was the second. The Mac and Cheese was inedible with a horrible taste of microwaved mustard. The waitress happily swapped this for a burger which was much better although upon receiving the bill the Mac and Cheese was still on there. Really frustrating at this point. I was super excited to stay here but felt disappointed having to speak to staff so much. Things need to be fine-tuned before I could recommend mollie’s. A few stars because the room is nice (especially the shower - heaven!!!), there was a nice free birthday ice cream at dinner and the wait staff are friendly. Won’t be back but glad we tried it anyway.

We are regulars at both Mollies and eagerly awaiting the opening of Manchester, but please Oxford, sort out your Aircon!

Excellent stay, highly recommended

Room hot and ac not working

Ok

Great place to stay if visiting Oxford or surrounding area including Jeremy Clarkson's pub.

Really clean & convenient stay + staff were all lovely.

Awesome!!

Lovely place, nice and quiet, although a bit far from Oxford. Service in the restaurant could be a bit slow, although they were busy. Shower good, nice toiletries. Comfy bed. No kettle, which was a bit of a pain- there was a hot water tap in the corridor which was fine, but you had to get dressed, go into the corridor with your cup and a key, and the lighting wasn’t great so you couldn’t see how far the water was coming up. Nearly scalded myself a couple of times.

Beautiful and peaceful stay! Rooms are very clean and simple

Nice place convenient location staff really pleasant and helpful. Had to move room on first night as TV didn’t work and move again second night as WC didn’t work, otherwise all good

We loved our stay at Mollies and immediately started planning a trip to the other location in Bristol! The price was amazing value, the room was clean, spacious and beautifully decorated which added to the welcoming comfortable atmosphere. Very family friendly and a great location to go on to explore the Cotswolds.

First time staying at Mollies and we would stay again! We are a family of 4 so the connecting rooms were great for us and meant we weren’t all in the same room A few minor issues were fixed quickly and the service was very professional and friendly We ate at Mollies diner for tea and breakfast and both were good - lots of choice on the menus and kids menus available Able to pre book a car charging socket as well :) Bus direct to Oxford stood right outside the motel so no need to drive Overall a great 2 x nights

Great experience! Love it!

Everything was ok until the water had been turned off due to an issue with the next room. I wasn't informed until I went to reception. A few hours later, I was asked to move rooms.

Amazing stay, hotel was perfect and food at the diner was incredible for dinner and breakfast.

We loved our stay but the room was very warm and we couldn't seem to control the temperature. ( Maybe that was just us!). Apart from that is was perfect! Quality bedding and great food and service in the restaurant. We wouldn't hesitate to return.

Good service, clean and comfortable.

Great find and real gem. Mollies is a very comfortable, easy, cool and treat to stay at. I was looking for a place to stay on my last leg down to London. Lots of choices around Oxfordshire, but Mollies just looked less complicated. Turned out to be a very nice stay. The Motel (not really a motel, but nice Hotel) is a large Scandi Style new Wooden Building with a nice lobby down below. My room again very Scandi and large. Slick new bathroom timber walls and furniture, big glass window and blackout curtains. No road noise, because it's set back from the road and clearly heavily sound proofed (not really a Motel, more Hotel). My bed was very comfortable (very large), great water pressure and luxurious shower. I was too comfortable I accidently slept in... Lastly the Diner.... Really cool and slick place. I've actually been to a lot of Diners in the US. This was up there with the greats. A lot of time and thought was put into it, and it has paid off. Excellent menu, good naughty and good healthy food options. Food Dinner I had a Cheese Burger (fantastic), decent bun and meat was done just right. Breakfast I had a Granola Bowl and Poached Eggs on Toast. Excellent.... Importantly its a happy place, staff seemed happy???? Something in the air?? Customers happy???? What is this??? Is there something in the food??? We need more of these Mollies Diners or just Diners in general... Stay here, it's fun, comfortable and a real experience. I highly recommend.

Very average

The motel was great, the amenities were amazing and the service was fantastic. I would defiantly recommend The diner however was not so great. The food was very good but the service was shocking. We had to wait a while to get seated for dinner, then we had to wait to get are drinks and food order taken. Then after we ordered we had to wait ages for our drinks even though we could see that they were left up on the side. Then after getting our drinks, my partner was given a 'free birthday ice cream' before we had our mains! then after this we were given the bill!! I told the waitress that we had not even eaten yet which she then replied that we were third in the queue so it won't be long. Another 30 minutes went past, we had both finished are drinks and were still waiting for our food. Someone finally came back over to us (I think a manager) asking if we had eaten and we replied no. They then went and bought us our food 5 minutes later - luckily she told us that we did not have to pay. The food is very good but the service is just something else - I understand that it was busy and maybe understaffed but being bought out a dessert and then the bill before the main is just crazy. The next morning we went back for breakfast and the service was a bit better but we were still waiting for ages for our drinks and food. Again, we had already finished are drinks long before we got our food and the people who were seated just before us had eaten and left before we had even got our food.

Room was fantastic, staff were very welcoming and helpful and the bar service was good. Short walk to the diner where the food was excellent

Good

Lovely hotel, beautifully clean and staff couldn’t do enough to help us throughout our stay. The neighbouring Mollies Diner was fabulous too - would recommend staying and eating here.

Great property!

Always feel premium and amazing value for money. Location isn’t great but that’s not the point of the motel.

The hotel was warm, comfortable and cleaned everyday. The staff were friendly and approachable and very happy to help with any issues. One of the rooms I stayed in could possibly do with a repaint in the future, but for the cost and the experience I have no complaints and only praise.

The staff here were lovely. When we had a slight issue with the tap plumbing in the room they immediately tried to resolve the issue but as we were only staying one night it wasn’t much of a problem and did offer compensation. Lovely rooms and very comfy beds. Good amenities in the room and nice general store for drinks and snacks.

Motel was super. Room lovely. Diner - super breakfast

A lovely experience in a modern, quirky motel with some great touches such as GHD straighteners & hairdryers in the rooms and boiling water on tap in the corridors to save the need for kettles in the rooms too.

Cool, modern diner themed restaurant with adjoining hotel. Rooms were all clean & modern. Staff at both hotel & diner were friendly & helpful.

Staff are really good

Very friendly and stylish, good location and very quiet, nice touches such as free filter coffee. Room was on the small side with no space to put out toiletaries (nowhere even for toothbrush) and very little space for clothes. There is good quality tea and coffee provided but you have to go along the corrider for boilng water tap as no kettle is provided.

A motel with a difference - modern, well thought through and designed with flair. A Dyson hairdryer to boot!!! Friendly staff, cosy, welcoming lobby with a bar and the diner was equally so. Good food, very reasonable prices and definitely a place to recommend!!

Stayed for one night, Monday into a Tuesday. Check in was easy. Phone keypass to enter the rooms was really clever and sleek. Rooms perfect, no issues with them at all. One thing I would mention is the air con was either too hot or too cold - couldn’t quite work out a middle. But still managed to sleep perfectly. Parking is great and lots of spaces, not sure how it would be on a weekend. Only issue here, we had a plug in Hybrid car and to park in the overnight spaces it was a £15 flat fee to use. Which is way too expensive for a hybrid. Could be useful and economical for a fully electric car but not mine so instead used the fast charge spaces which were 80p per KWH so not cheap.

It was peaceful and quiet. The staff were super friendly and i really enjoyed my stay.

Interesting concept with bare minimum, but the heater should work while sleeping. Heater worked in the morning but not at night even-though we adjusted the thermostat accordingly. Consequently, we got sick the next day.

Everything was fantastic! Parking, Dining, Room, Reception/Check-in.

Stay was good as always, just one minor issue hence a 4. Staff and rooms was great as always, except heating was an issue. Room was really cold and thermostat either didn’t work or heating was insufficient. Covers on bed did keep me warm enough to sleep but was still cold. I will still return regardless just wanted to express my concern.

The room was freezing cold, otherwise I would have given it 5*

Really enjoyed our stay but probably wouldn’t stay again, room was freezing cold upon arrival and the bed wasn’t overly comfy causing both of us neck ache the following morning. Diner next door has amazing food though and the aesthetic is really lovely.

Clean easy check in and out comfortable bed- and very reasonable for an overnight en route somewhere it’s great

safe and quiet

All amazing
