Quaint, comfortable beds, good service at pub, nice breakfast
Convenient parking behind pub
Noisy as it is on a main road and close to airport however quiet during the night, no traffic
This was our second stay at The Ostrich Inn, and it is the perfect place to stay before flying out of Heathrow airport (which is only 5 miles away). The rooms are very clean and comfortable with lots of lovely touches like tea and coffee making supplies, nice toiletries, and a fan for hot weather times. Staff is helpful and friendly. The hotel is full of historic details. We enjoyed pre-dinner drinks out in the garden, and had a great meal in the restaurant. Breakfast the next day was delicious as well. This place is a hidden gem for those who travel through Heathrow!
Chanced upon this place looking to be close to Heathrow Terminal 5, its 10 minutes drive so ideal but the place itself is absolutely wonderful, full of character and lovely staff, great breakfast and good value too. I’m staying again in a week on my return it was that nice.
Despite being a very old character property. The Ostrich Inn was well maintained. Easy parking for even a large vehicle.
Had a great fish and chips that was served really quickly. Reasonably priced. Our room was clean with everything we needed.
One bedside light was needing maintenance to be fixed and tge flexible shower needed tightening but otherwise all was good.
Slept quite well, mattress a little too soft for our liking but all lovely bedding
Would stay again.
Really liked the 'old pub' feel of yhe place... combined with friendly bar staff..

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The staff is wonderful the food and the bar was great. The only problem is the property is old. It is 11 century. It was cold in our room. We had to get an extra heater, but the Inn provided that and there was an issue with the water, we had no hot water one day. But again it’s 11 century Inn, I think it’s great for a night or two, but we stayed four nights, probably won’t do that again only because of the age, TV also was not working properly. We definitely will always go there for food and drinks, but maybe will not stay as long the next go round.
Gorgeous room. Lovely shower and decor. Stunning back garden and restaurant/pub attached. Excellent service, food & drinks. Very convenient for short stay and easy commute to Heathrow airport. Spacious wardrobe in the room.
Great choice to spend the night, especially for an early flight. London center is about a 1 to 1.5 hr train ride. Very good choice if you've got a car and don't want to drive in the city. Surprisingly spacious room! Lovely place!
