Oxford Belfry Hotel & Spa

Very nice hotel with good size rooms, very helpful staff and a good quality breakfast.

Enjoyable two night stay. Very warm, which made the pool a godsend. Breakfast was a bit cramped and bland, if I was being picky. Lovely room, great bed and good size walk-in shower. Overall, a very definite thumbs up.

We did enjoy it very much, the staff were excellent and attentive. The breakfast was excellent with a lot of choice and great quality. However the pool was a little disappointing, quite small and when looking closely there were black bits floating in the water and a small amount of litter. Maybe this is like all pools when examined closely, I don't know. Also we stayed during a heatwave and there was no Aircon in the room. For a four star hotel it was a surprise and disappointment.

Lovely and relaxing place.

Great

Room first given TV not working reception could not get anyone to sort 2nd room very good Thank you Steam room as the same from when I stayed in 2024 Green mould in there Food i had below par

Beware web site descriptions do not match realities. A 'Deluxe' room is described as having a bath tub and countryside views. We had no bath and out look across the car park. Room had no heating (helpful staff member brought in a plug-in heater), broken windows, missing light bulb and no clothes hangars. Minor things but not what you want when arriving late a night. In the morning , woken by folk in room above as the floors creek and there is a lack of sound insulation. At breakfast, bread, pastries and butter ran out. Good bits: EV chargers work well. Hotel staff all v friendly . Overall, disappointed to not receive the experience we had been offered and paid for.

Room was clean and comfortable; staff was very helpful. Grounds were beautiful and peaceful. Was a bit too far away from any other needs, and very costly to get around if you don't have a car.

Everyone and everything was really great, Thank you

The staff were very welcoming and polite. There is ample parking. We stayed in a suite which was spacious, clean and had good amenities. There is a good sized swimming pool which has allocated children hours. There was a good selection at breakfast and you can also order off a menu too. The restaurant also provided a good selection for dinner. The hotel is in a good location and a short uber ride from Oxford city centre.

Staff were fantastic. Emma on reception and Ali on breakfast brilliant

Good hotel, definitely need a car. Rooms are nice, ours was a little warm, unsure if air-conditioning was available. We were very fortunate and had a free upgrade - big room, clean, good bathroom also clean. Bar and restaurant are both nice - food at both is very good - although drinks prices are a tad high. Restaurant is a bit under staffed at breakfast, if busy getting a clear table can be a challenge. But all staff are really friendly and helpful. We also used the spa - the lounge is lovely and the pool and sauna are also both good.

Where do I start… check in-no one took a deposit so had trouble with having to pay for everything as I couldn't bill room until I finally sorted it at the front desk. Room key didn’t work second day because my reservation of adding a night seemed to confuse staff so had to be at the front desk every morning until that was sorted. Room restock was HORRIBLE. Had to call every night of a 4 night stay because staff had not refreshed at least 1-5things such ascoffee, tissue, sugar, water, spoon, coffee cups. They didn’t clean room, wipe fixtures, or vacuum. Bed was made by throwing up the duvet and haphazardly throwing the pillows on the bed. Had a young woman masseuse who thought she was a medical doctor and I had to tell her 4 times to stop working on my back in a sensitive area and she told me “but you are tight all over” so we work where it’s needed!!!!!!! Excuse me I have been in this body for 60 years and I know it better than you little girl!!!! Room was noisy as it was right next to the utility closet where the staff made a huge ruckus getting the vacuums out at 7:30am every morning. Fire alarm went off randomly one morning at 8am-no communication, information. Nothing. I ignored it as the service was so subpar I figure it was a false alarm..and it was but it went on for 20 minutes. You get complimentary items first night but then couldn’t get them again even though I offered to pay for them to get them. Got impression all staff just did the BARE minimum

There was ample parking and it was very easy to park including electric parking points. The room was very clean, I did not stay for breakfast so can't comment, but the evneing meal in the restaurant was five stars from me, excellent food. The only negative thing I have to say is that was waiting 30 minutes for desserts and the outside tables in the garden did not cleared throughout the day, and it was a sunny day, so ther ewere lots of people outside but all the tables had dirty glasses on them. Overall a very ennjoyable stay and I would recommend this hotel to my friends and family.

Upgrade to a suit that was a very nice surprise with plenty of

Staff not attentive and don’t ask how stay was or if any issues. Windows were had condensation on, and thin with outdoor noise. Pillows were flatter than tarmac and no extra pillows in wardrobe. Shower drenched floor and seeped through to hallway.

Lovely hotel, very nice place. I had a very unfortunate experience due to the fire alarm sirens going off at 12:45am until 1:30am and I had to evacuate the building. Not ideal when I had an early morning meeting for work the next day.

Really friendly and great food, just the fire alarm evacuation at 12:45 am jaded my stay

The Belfry Hotel in Oxford was a major disappointment and nowhere near its supposed 4-star standard. The room was not properly cleaned, the bathtub and sink were visibly dirty, with waste water backing up when using the tap. The carpet was filthy, and I avoided the spa entirely due to hygiene concerns. Basic amenities were lacking too, only a combined shampoo/shower gel was provided, despite Crabtree & Evelyn products being advertised. The bed was uncomfortable, and to make matters worse, a false fire alarm at 1:30am had all guests standing outside in the cold, with staff appearing disorganised and not properly accounting for people. After that, there was constant noise from slamming doors in the corridor until checkout. Food was equally poor, breakfast was below average, with rubbery fried eggs, and dinner (fish and chips) was nothing special. Check-in was slow and inefficient, and no one asked about the stay at checkout — which says a lot. At around £200 a night, this hotel is significantly overpriced and falls well short of expectations.

Staff helpful and friendly breakfast good, evening meal they good do better, as very slow, and a bit disorganised as people had to ask to place orders
