Very Disappointing
A really very disappointing experience for our stay at Oxford VOCO Thames , we made our reservation through hotel.com, the room type that we booked is "Premium Room, 1 King Bed, River View". When we checked in, we were told that there are no room with river view were available. The hotel should have better management to ensure the room type that we paid for is available when we arrive ! This was a really bad experience.

Lovely Oxford Stay
What a great stay - Every single member of staff we met was friendly, polite & helpful. The hotel is a fantastic building, in a lovely quiet setting next to the river but with very easy access to the city and surrounding attractions. Breakfast service was well organised with a good choice of hot & cold food.
