Best Western Buckingham Hotel

Just stayed 1 night here on business Positives - Good location close to Buckingham centre - Rooms clean with comfortable bed - Staff in restaurant and reception very friendly - Nice food in restaurant reasonably priced ( I had the fish and chips which was excellent and cheeseboard which is enough for 2!) - Breakfast (for ready made food) pretty good - Quiet in the bedrooms so made for a better night sleep than normal in a hotel - Plenty of free parking Not so good - Used the gym and the young girl looking after it did not make me feel the slightest bit welcome, preferred speaking to members whom she knew - Shower was in the bath with a curtain that stuck to you whilst trying to shower - much prefer a walk in cubicle (although this is a personal preference as some may like baths) - Tea and coffee in room although no biscuits or water, for £100 per night I would have expected this particularly mid week/off peak Overall I would stay here again on business as ticked the majority of boxes less

Excellent friendly staff. Cosy room and silent nights sleep. Restaurant, friendly and efficient, even though busy. Good choice of meal option - my wife enjoyed her lamb shank and I a prawn curry (hot and full of large prawns). Breakfast too was of very good quality and although full from the night before, found room for the well cooked English breakfast (eggs cooked in front of you)! My only complaint is that the sat nav insisted we did not turn in on the Esso garage and sent us around a trading estate! less

Saturday night stopover whilst visiting the area. No complaints. Room was spacious clean and comfortable on the lower ground floor. Visited the adjoining swimming pool which I found clean and water warm. Not very busy. Changing rooms a little small. Ate in the restaurant which again was quiet. The bar was being renovated so no draught beer only bottled. Service was excellent and plenty of attention given by the waiting staff. Only negative of the visit was checkout. As after a long wait to handover my key because the reception concierge type was on the phone and was unable to give me eye contact and multitask. I put the key on the desk and just left. less

I stayed here with my daughter whilst visiting Silverstone circuit. The hotel was about 15 minutes away so easy to get to. Staff were good and the rooms are a good size with tea and coffee making facilities. The beds were comfortable although I would have liked a bed sheet as well as a duvet. I will stay again when I next visit. less

I was tempted to give this hotel a five star rating. It was well situated for our trip between the two attractions which we were visiting. Quick check in by pleasant staff. We found the room clean light with tea's maid, T.V. iron, with shower and bath. Linen was changed every day. Food was really good, good choice for breakfast and our group was given three different main course choices for evening meal. All were hot and served quickly with every member of our party showing a clean plate at the end. Reception was adequate although the bar was undergoing a make over during our stay. There was a plunge pool sauna. Car parking was adequate The only thing was there was NO lift. However if you were disabled you could stay on the floor which gave access to most of these facilities. Our group of fifteen U3A members were all happy. less
