The Buttery Hotel

Close to everything

Great location and great rate. Easily walkable to many restaurants.

This was one of our favorite places that we stayed! It was clean, simple and quiet and right in the heart of the pedestrian center of Oxford. Staff was very helpful and this was a wonderful home base to explore the city!

Perfect place for us to stay that is centrally located to the University of Oxford and to the sites and activities. Oxford is a very walkable city. There is not a lift so this is not an accessible hotel as it is in a historic building above several stores. That being said the staff were so very kind and helpful and we had a wonderful stay!

Amazing hotel! Staff were very happy, professional and friendly. The room was great and comfortable. Next time in Oxford, will be staying here again!

Great location and nice quality room for a reasonable price.

We liked: Old fashioned property with local charm. Walkable to everything that Oxford has to offer, the university, shopping, culture, pubs. Short walk also to bus depot and train station. The room was spotless. The bathroom modern and well appointed. The staff was friendly and helped with our luggage. If you are in need of ambulatory assistance or not in good physical condition, you should request a room on the first floor. We are in our 70s. The stairway to our 3rd floor room was narrow and somewhat trying. When you check in request a top sheet for the bed. The quilt was way too thick and hot.

This property is in an excellent location. However, it is an older building and does not have an elevator.

The stairs were quite steep for a 52 step climb to our room. Room was small but clean, qiet and comfortable.

Great location. Room was pretty big! Loved the cozy vibe. Lots going on around the hotel so my day time nap wasn’t ideal but that’s not the hotel’s fault. Worth noting it’s a lively area though. Staff was super helpful.

My only complaint is the door uses a physical key and when your in your room you must use the key to lock it! I would suggest that they put a lock on the inside! I feel this could be a fire hazard as it took me a few minutes to get the door locked and unlocked.

It was kept clean and the location was great.

Our room was clean and well laid out. The bathroom was a good size, good powerful shower. The bed was comfortable, bedding was good. Nice towels and toiletries provided. Staff were friendly and helpful. Location is excellent. Would stay again.

The location of this hotel is excellent, in the centre of the city and in walking distance of all that Oxford offers. The room was comfortable but getting a bit shabby. The bedside cabinet prevented access to the wardrobe and there was a ventilator cover hanging loose. But the staff were helpful and the room was a good size with a nice view of Balliol.

Great location

Clean, friendly, and a fantastic location across from Balliol College. That said, our room faced Broad Street which can be a little noisy at night. Also, the rooms are located above the shops and require navigating somewhat narrow and steep staircases.

I used to live in Oxford and this place made it easy to explore all of the main areas and was very friendly and great privacy.

Great location. Good sized and well maintained room on the 3rd floor. Very narrow spiral stairs going up 3 floors. Ok for me but not for all.

I stayed at The Buttery Hotel for one night. I had requested a street facing room but in retrospect, a non -street facing room might have been quieter as there was noise from people in the street well after midnight. It was a very comfortable room, bed, bathroom. Check-in was easy once I found the hotel and person who checked me in was very and offered to carry my bag up to my room which was about 32 steps upstairs. I was also able to leave my bag at the hotel the next day so that it could be securely stored while I was out and about in Oxford before leaving by train late that day. I think it is a great option for 1 - 3 nights, not a luxury hotel but far more affordable. Just be prepared for many narrow steps.

This was my fifth stay at the Buttery. Its location is superb. I always prefer a room at the back, as Broad Street during term time can be a bit noisy at night, but this time my room was blissfully quiet even though there was a Christmas Fair going on outside in the front. The room/bed/bathroom were all wonderful and well equipped as usual. Staff are fabulous -- extremely helpful and kind. The stairs can be a challenge (no elevator) but I was able to get help with my suitcase. Charming view from the window of medieval colleges and other buildings. I just love staying at the Buttery.
