The Buttery Hotel

The shower was blocked causing a stong smell to fill the bathroom meaning we kept the bathroom door closed. The drain was blocked but I only discovered this in the morning when we had a shower and the water nearly flooded the bathroom. We didn't want to hang around so I checked the drain. Despite the smell indicating something was wrong, it clearly had't been serviced for a few years. I had to clear it out so we could shower. The room itself was looking quite tired and the walls were a bit grubby in places. Well over due decorating. The bed was average, certainly not a treat to sleep in. A lovely location and could be so much more. I wouldn't choose to stay there again.

Location excellent. Room clean, warm and very comfortable. Staff were friendly and helped with luggage up twisting stairs. Would stay here again.

The staff were wonderful and extremely helpful. If it were up to them, alone, then I would rate the hotel 5 stars. Additionally, rooms are quite spacious. Please note that there are also way more stairs than expected but that wasn’t the biggest issue. But if you do travel heavy, with that, this is not the best hotel for you (for both your sake and the staffs’). The biggest issue was the noise coming from the street. The noise was so loud and clear that initially I had thought the windows were open, but that was not the case. The noise did not die down until about 3:30 am and then street cleaning started at around 6/6:30 so I got a maximum of 2 hours sleep which really defeats the purpose of paying for a hotel. Additionally, I stayed during the Christmas market (I’m not from here and didn’t know there would be a market in that specific spot) and that made the noise exponentially worse. It was also quite cold and I had no idea if there was heating or how to turn it on, if there was. It is unlikely that I’d stay at this hotel again (the noise was just way too much even with the lower price of the hotel), but kudos to the staff for all their help with my luggage.

Great location, comfy big bed

Convenient and central. Noisy bedroom due to proximity to high street and student life

The staff were friendly and my room was spacious. Nice selection of teas as well as a cute complementary toiletries set. The room overlooks the street where the Christmas market was being set up so a little noisy. Also late night drinkers walking by below in the night were not quiet. However, these small disturbances were made up for by the excellent location for site-seeing, pubs and restaurants. Would stay here again.

Many stairs, nice room, help with bags.

Lovely welcome and small but lovely room. They were happy to atore my bag before and after check-in. Really helpful and friendly staff. Very central. It is up a lot of stairs so not suitable if you have mobility issues.

El.personal es super amable. El hotel es viejo pero limpio y su localización es perfecta para visitar Oxford.

I slept like a baby. Really. The door to the room opens with a skeleton key so it’s older but that’s part of the charm. Great internet and the staff made me feel welcome anytime I walked in the door.

Simple but completely adequate accommodation in the most central location in Oxford.

Our desk clerk ?yasmin went above and beyond to help us arrange a taxi to the car rental office. Many thanks

We loved the location - comfortable, clean suite and they were helpful with bringing our luggage up the stairs. 😊

Very nice hotel, located in the city centre, within 10min walking distance from the rail station. Welcoming, friendly and helpful reception. Comfortable quiet clean bedroom at the back with air con, great toiletry kit and coffee & biscuits selection. The narrow stairs were ok for me but this could be difficult for people with large suitcase. Person at reception kindly offered to take bags to the room if any problem. If it had breakfast facilities this would be perfect but they do offer voucher for next door cafe/restaurant. I would recommend it and would stay there again on my next visit to Oxford.

This location is perfect if you plan to explore Oxford City Center. Everything is super close by and the staff is great. The rooms are tiny but well kept and clean. I really enjoyed my stay.

Lovely check-in. Room cleaned Well Daily.

A unique property, with old-world charm. Very walkable, with an excellent cafe next door with a discount for Buttery guests.

We had an excellent stay at the buttery. It was a very convenient location and the room was very suitable. There was plenty of storage, places to sit, and it was easy to access outlets for charging our devices. The showers and bathroom were nice and the air conditioning was very effective. During the day, there was some noise from the street but at night it had become completely quiet.

I loved staying at the Buttery! The location was perfectly centralized and you could walk to everything. The room was clean, cool, and I appreciated the daily tea and water that was replenished in the room. It was also very quiet, despite being so centralized. And reasonable!!! I highly recommend the Buttery.
