Good hotel right in the centre of Oxford with easy walk to the theatre. Rooms were ok and breakfast was a bit basic but it's the location that makes this hotel.

Michelle, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Property lovely and very quiet while being in the centre of a noisy city. It was a very hot night when I stayed and a stronger fan would have been good! Otherwise excellent.

10/10 Excellent

Really nice stay
Paul, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Excellent location and smooth check in with helpful staff. Unfortunately my room was next to a pub and was v noisy however the staff found another quieter room quickly for me. Issues with the TV remote controls in both rooms and the air con didn’t work and the room was v warm. Breakfast was an additional charge of £20 which didn’t include a cooked breakfast so not really worth the money. Overall hotel is in an excellent location but needs some attention to detail to justify the cost.
Abi, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Tte best hotel in Oxford for everything
Leela, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

Very old rooms, the pictures give a very wrong impression. Bathroom very old, shower not in the bathroom but in the room, old carpet, dirty curtains, completely overpriced for what you get. Breakfast very simple.

Good stay

3-night trip

4/10 Poor

Only good thing about this hotel is it's location, being right in the city centre. The room was very small; there was no air conditioning or cooling (just a freestanding electric fan); the shower room flooring tiles were broken in several places;
