What guests think

Travellers describe Saracens Head Hotel by Greene King Inns as a characterful coaching inn in central Towcester, with on-site parking and a setting convenient for Silverstone and nearby dining, offering straightforward accommodation in a historic building with typical period quirks.

Service is repeatedly praised as friendly and professional, and cleanliness is consistently noted. Rooms are comfortable and sometimes spacious, but some feel dated or get too warm, a few suffer from weak showers or small beds, and noise from traffic, pub areas, or closing doors can disturb. Food, including breakfasts, pies and Sunday roasts, is generally well liked with reasonable prices, though a few guests questioned value or consistency. Expect a friendly stay in a historic inn with good location and some noise and building quirks.

The stay was very nice. Easy to find and a very warm welcome. Considering we arrived late and in the storm. The lady on the reception was very helpful. The overalll stay was Good. My only negative point was that the bath was very shallow and i was looking forward to a nice bath on arrival after travelling for 3hrs. Other than the bath not being deep enough, the place smelt lovely and clean. Was very Christmasy and cosy. The bed was comfortable and we really loved the place as an overall stay. Cheap too so thats always a bonus.

We were concerned that staying in a pub might be noisy but you couldn’t hear those in the pub or outside noise. The room was a good size, but with a character property comes a few negatives. Firstly the stairs to the second floor were steep and narrow. Floors are uneven, slope and creak. The bed was too soft for us but the pillows too hard. The room was far too hot even after switching off the towel rail. A fan is provided and was kept on overnight but didn’t make much difference. The window was small and would be hard to reach if short, I’m 5’7 and struggled to reach the blind cord. The shower screen didn’t fit properly so the floor became soaked. Location was good, especially for Silverstone circuit.

We stayed in a room only basis and it cost £150 a night. We thought it was quite expensive for a room that was quite “tired” and old fashioned. However, the bed was big and comfortable. The room and bathroom was clean.

Stayed here several times but never on the 3rd floor. Room 19 shower was a dribble. There is virtually no wayer pressure in this room. Bed was small. The hotel is a quirky old coaching inn, which is part of its charm. Next time ill request to stay in another room.
