We had a lovely stay. The staff were incredible helpful with food abd transport recommendations. The decor is fun and the room was clean and comfortable. The weather wasn't great so we didnt use it, but the outside space looked lovely. Parking is a bonus, we parked and got the bus in to town, far cheaper and easier than parking in town! Will definitely return.

A mixed bag due to hotels.com and the hotel itself

When yiu book thorough hotels.com it advertisies as a superior double with king bed, thats not what you get, yiu get a double bed unless you specifically ask for a king despite the description on here. There is only one king in the hotel. You have to pay for parking, no disabled parking discount offered until i asked as its an additional £10per day per car. Lots of cobwebs, only one towel for 2 people in the room until i asked. Helpful they let you check in early is you can. Breakfast only ok, but good if yiu cant be bothered finding anywhere else. Bus stop right outside whichnis handy to get into the city

Cool hotel even if loud at times

This is a gorgeous hotel with plenty of character and a decent location in the North of Oxford, near shops and eateries. As it is a quirky old building, you do hear the footsteps shuffling of your upstairs neighbours, but I would return if ever in town again.

Quintessential old English hotel. Rooms are basic but clean and comfortable. Entrance, reception, lounge, breakfast area and bar are definitely 5*.

Very beautiful place but 3 things

Beautiful hotel but three problems: first one was that I could hear everything in the hallway and I could only assume anyone can hear anything I do as well. Second was that someone kept slamming their door so hard that my TV shook. Multiple times in the day. I have no idea what their problem was but I wanted to yell at them. Lastly, breakfast ended at 9am which is quite early. Checkout is at 10:30am. So although it was a great hotel, if people are slamming doors and you will miss breakfast if you had any evening plans, it kind of outweighs the nice bits.

Service focused quirky boutique hotel.

Service focused boutique hotel. Andrew on reception was exceptional, couldn't help us enough. Hotel is lovely, fantastic decoration and design, so much to look at it was really fun and quirky. So quirky that for breakfast a toy train runs around the breakfast room. The room was lovely (105) however the double glazing was rubbish and we heard all of the cars going past which woke us early. You can park up, pay and leave your car there and get buses into town centre. No bar but plenty of restaurants and bars in summer town.

Great stay

I only spent one night. They let me check in early, which was great since I came straight from the US so needed some rest. Room was clean and cozy. It’s well located near shops, restaurants and frequent buses to city center. I would stay again.
