The room was beautiful and large. Their location is excellent. Close to all the sites. One issue was the level of noise. There was construction in the adjacent building creating noise throughout the day. At night noise from the cafes down the street. There was also a large party at the Oxford Union across the street. Something that probably doesn’t happen regularly, better quality windows may have helped. The AI concierge service was non responsive when asked for a recommendation for lunch.

You stay here for the location, which is ideal for walking to much of what Oxford offers. The building is old enough to be historic, something to keep in mind when choosing. Lots of atmosphere, small room with floor that slopes. The bed was very comfortable and the linens nice. I liked having the Nespresso machine in the room for coffee to go with my morning TV news. Bathroom nicely updated. I did object to the worn-out carpet and extremely dirty windows. For that I requested, and got, a reduction in the breakfast charge. Staff pleasant and helpful. Agreed about the carpet and said windows cannot be cleaned because of access constraints. Breakfast room pleasant and a good place to chat with fellow travelers.

Hotel & Staff were excellent, informed us of services at the hotel and also nearby. Hotel had prepared relevant papers for the visually impaired guest in our party, presented professionally with no fuss. Room great, lovely bath and shower.

Sadly the room was not great. Horrible cheap very uncomfortable mattress on a wooden bed that everything we walked near it we bashed our knee on. Room small. Used the wardrobe and ripped a good linen shirt because the door handle was fitter with a screws going all the way through and sticking out the back to far. Bathroom appalling. Mouldy shower curtains and due to it being a disabled one there was no room to stand and shower without bashing yourself on all the handles and chair. Totally flooded floor everytime we used it. Wet feet going to the loo at night then! Shame as it is in a perfect position to enjoy oxford. Sadly not the best 35th wedding anniversary stay. But Oxford is fab

Super location, very central to everything in Oxford. Polite staff. Clean and spacious room. We did not eat breakfast in, so can't comment on that, but loads of options nearby. Heads up to older visitors that there is no elevator, so perhaps ask for a low level room.

It was a great stay. The room was very large and the beds were super comfortable. The location is just fantastic for central Oxford. There was some noise in the street in the morning, but you will not escape that in the centre of Oxford. I would definitely recommend the hotel

Location is great. The room was very small. Not enough space to fully lay out a cabin size suitcase. Also there are no elevators in the building. Dragging your stuff two flights up the stairs is a great way to start and end a trip. Staff was helpful. Rooms were cleaned daily.

Step into Room 18 , although signed , is a bit precarious if you are unsteady on your feet . Light switch to bathroom kept falling off . Breakfast , although nice , is overpriced . Location is very convenient for city Centre .
