Location! This was an excellent choice to walk all over Oxford, the breakfast (for a fee) was superb & met dietary restrictions. The staff and Lobby area are wonderful. My only small complaint is the general WiFi is not great, but by joining their corporate membership program, you can access a better network AND get a complimentary beverage.

Paying more than £200 for a midweek one night stay, you have certain expectations. The room was nice, the bathroom modern, the staff at check in very pleasant. We arrived during a heatwave. The room was hot (the thermostat said 26 celsius / 80F). We tried adjusting the air conditioning to cool the room, but it didn't do anything. There was a powerful fan that at least moved the air around, but no cooling. The windows were all sealed shut, even though the hotel is in a historic building and they should have been openable. Thus we sweated through the night even sleeping with the fan on and without using the comforter. The room was no cooler in the morning although it had cooled off considerably outside. Additionally the wifi was pretty poor (rhere was an option to buy better) and the coffee was Nescafe sachets. These are the kinds of things I expect in a £60 hotel room, but not in one costing three times as much.

3rd floor room, no air conditioning, ineffective fans, window not opening fully and 30 degree heat. So horribly uncomfortable we left a night early as couldn't bear another awful night. I did ask about cooler room but told hotel fully booked and offered a cooling tower. Cooling tower made no difference to room temperature. Room itself was nicely furnished, although lacked a bedside lamp on one side. Bathroom was modern but even cold water was lukewarm! A radiator on the 3rd floor was emitting heat, not great with all the eco accreditations the hotel has. Appreciate the hotel is an old coaching inn but our room was not fit for purpose in the heat. Advise to give a wide berth to this hotel in summer months. A massively disappointing stay and the first time I have ever left a hotel early. I should also mention steep stairs to get into the hotel with short metal rails - you can imagine how hot these got! Also the hotel advertised a lift but this only goes to the 2nd floor, leaving a climb up a narrow staircase to the 3rd floor.

On both occasions the day staff denied I ever had that conversation with the night shift. Really poor communication and very little compassion. Left feeling scammed out of quite a bit of money.
