Introducing The Chesterton Hotel, in Oxfordshire

Boasting twenty-three bedrooms, smart tech features, an inviting brasserie serving excellent cocktails and classic brasserie fare, the property is also a picturesque wedding venue for 260 loved ones!

Once inside, the public areas are comfortable and chic. A tasteful mix of smart leather, brass and touches of plush velvet to soften the effect are a draw for its fashion-forward clientele, many of whom check in for the designer shopping experience at nearby Bicester Village (2 miles away). The hotel provides the perfect post-shopping retreat with evenings of pre-dinner cocktails served in the bar, or in the luxurious lobby.
DINING, BAR & BRASSERIE
The hotel's relaxed chic vibe continues in the elegant bar & brasserie which boasts on-trend black and white chequered flooring. Seating and banquettes are picked out in rich blues and greens set aglow with the use of gold and bronze accents in mirrors and fixtures. An original fireplace makes for a striking focal point and juxtaposition of old and new. Whether for an intimate dinner, convivial family celebration, Sunday lunch or a Champagne afternoon tea, the brasserie and its adjoining bar offer a smart setting to indulge in some exquisite food.
