We stayed at The Randolph for three nights in September 2005. We had breakfast there three times and dinner once. The dinner was excellent and the service was superb and a tribute to the superb staff my wife and I cannot praise the food and service enough. The breakfasts were equally superb with a wide selection of breakfast food at the buffet. The room was excellent in every way and the position of the hotel for visiting the city centre and Colleges was spot on. Richard and Martine 14/09/2025.

Whilst the evening service in the Alice bar was excellent the breakfast service also in the Alice was poor, staff standing together talking whilst plates pile up on tables and no interest in coffee refills, getting a clean knife from next door table etc. Rooms were extremely hot changing the settings had no impact, was it being centrally controlled?

Needs some improvement to be a 5-star

Our connecting rooms weren’t both ready - we arrived about 20 minutes before check-in - but we were checked into one room right away - thankfully. I didn’t hear back from reception about the second room being ready (we could hear when the cleaning staff had left), but after about half an hour I called down to ask, and the second room keys were brought up promptly. A used food tray from a neighbouring room sat on the floor near our rooms (with dirty dishes and food on it) for at least two days. The rooms are decorated whimsically and the bathroom was very clean. There were several longer term maintenance issues. The dark patterned carpet had several bad stains that I didn’t notice at first. The wallpaper is peeling in several places. The towel warmer worked in one bathroom but not the other one. The electrical outlet cover by the desk was missing a screw and almost came out of the wall when I was pulling a plug. Service was inconsistent. The coffee at breakfast was terribly weak but was promptly replaced when I asked for another one. The front desk was slow at check out, with one of two staff on the phone, and the lobby did not have a card-drop box. The concierge was great and went out of his way to help us find a taxi two blocks away (the street was closed for a fair), and also helped us push our large luggage to the taxi stand. Overall the hotel is iconic, quirky, and fun but it needs some tightening up on the management side to earn a 5 star rating.

Beautiful hotel but better communication needed.

I tried 3 different emails & on hold for 15 minutes to try to book parking before arriving and did not get a response. I phoned again on the morning we were due to arrive & was finally able to book parking. It is valet parking as the hotel is in the city centre, £48 a night but we thought the best option. The hotel itself was beautiful. Our room was well equipped with tea, coffee machine, air-con & fridge. I requested a room with bath which was honoured. The bed was a good size although it felt a little like a water bed if the other person moved! Pillows were big & comfortable. Lovely decor. We had drinks in the Morse Bar & were served by a lovely gentleman in a suit whose name we didn’t get but he was great. There is limited seating in the bar but there is another bar in the restaurant with bar stools at the bar. I had a massage in the spa which was much appreciated and well done. We were greeted warmly by all staff that we encountered. Apart from the email/parking issue we would recommend.
