Ground floor room perfect as I struggle to walk. It was rather warm when we were staying and I was extremely glad we brought our own fan as no fan/air con in room.
Bed a bit hard for me, ended up with sore back.
Room clean and bed beautifully made. They forgot about our bathroom on 2nd morning.
Breakfast was ok. But get there early as it’s not big area and you could wait ages to get a coffee/tea. Staff very pleasant and polite.
At the disabled parking I pointed out that a nasty accident was waiting to happen as there was an unmarked drop at the planters onto a path. Definitely needs to be highlighted.
Overall, it was a decent stay. We stayed there as is near our daughters in Chinnor. Will be back.

Okay
Room better than last time but not cleaning (hair etc on floor behind bathroom door). We went back as the breakfast was amazing last time but really not very good this time. A coach party had been in before us and everything needed topping up but was not topped up. Hardly any breads or pastries left, no yogurt and coffee machine was not working. Reception very good but waiter at breakfast grumpy. Not sure I would book again.

Standards are dropping
I was staying at the Mercure, Lambert Hotel, Watlington on Tues 1st April this week for a business trip, prior to visiting the ercol Head Office in Princes Risborough. I arrived at 9pm after a long journey, to be told the food service was closed. I was eventually given some food.
Also, I was disappointed to find that the gym was closed during my stay. Breakfast too was a bit hit and miss on service.

Great overnight stay, the staff are brilliant, the food was lovely and the all around ambience was relaxing and beautiful. Loved every minute, the hotel is great and would thoroughly recommend them.
Book with them directly rather than a third party the staff are very welcoming and friendly and will help you with anything that you need.
