Travelodge Thame

I found the room clean, tidy and roomy, with tea and coffee, a TV, soft white towels, a comfy bed, nice pillows, bedside charging space and good lighting. There was only one chair, though, so a second guest would have to sit on the bed. The new room design hadn't reached my room yet, but reception said the update was due soon. The helpful desk staff got me checked in quickly. Guest parking is free, but first come, first served. The hotel is a single-storey building with an older Travelodge feel, set in a 24-hour Esso rest area. There’s a drive-through Burger 🍔 king, Subway 🥖, drive-through 🌟 Starbucks, Gregg's and a small Asda "on the move" express mini mart, so I could get coffee or an evening meal without heading into town. I stayed to explore Thame, including the old market town centre, Thame Museum and St Mary's church. Robin Gibb of the Bee Gees lived in Thame, not far from the church. After my walk, I stopped at the "Six Bells", a 16th-Century pub, for a rest and some nice Fuller's beers 🍺 🍻 😁. I stayed one Sunday night, paid £24.99 😊, then checked out on Monday and visited Aylesbury's old market centre before heading back to London. I thought it was a nice base for Thame, Oxford and maybe Bicester shopping village. Hope this helps if you're planning to explore the area. Keep exploring Google maps, you never know what you may find! Thanks, "H" 😎
