Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was quite pleasant overall. The room, although small for two suitcases to be fully opened, was modern, comfortable, and well equipped with essential amenities. The service was exceptional, with staff being very helpful and considerate, although one receptionist seemed preoccupied. The location was convenient, being a short walk or bus ride from the center of Oxford, with lovely coffee shops nearby. The dining experience was enjoyable, with a slight limitation on breakfast timings. The facilities provided by the hotel were satisfactory.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were very comfortable and fitted to a high standard, with clean modern bathrooms and electronic shower controls. However, being on the ground floor, noise from other guests returning outside could be bothersome, especially with minimal ventilation that might make it hot in the summer. The service was nice and friendly, and the location was absolutely perfect for exploring Oxford with easy access to buses into the city and local amenities. The dining experience felt more like an upmarket boutique hotel with some homemade bread but could have been improved for a smoother breakfast service. Overall, a good value for money choice.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were lovely, clean, and comfortable, with a very powerful shower. However, the bathroom was on the small side. The service was above expectations, showing a wonderful attention to making my stay extra comfortable. The location was absolutely perfect, close to buses into the city and local shops. The dining experience was well-organised and plentiful, although breakfast hours could have been a bit later. Overall, a great spot for a relaxing stay.
I had a lovely stay at the hotel. The rooms, though a bit small, were beautifully presented and very comfortable, equipped with modern amenities like electronic shower controls and underfloor heating. I'm looking forward to trying one of the bigger rooms next time. The double bed room didn't disappoint.
