Cozy, Victorian style hotel. Room was quiet and nicely furnished with comfortable period furniture. We had dinner in the elegant restaurant two times and the food was outstanding! Staff were courteous and helpful.

It's a 10min stroll through the parks to the city centre. There are excellent pubs and restaurants right across the road. In 5mins you can get to Jericho which is full of bars, coffee shops and restaurants. The parking is great, the staff are helpful and friendly. The rooms are lovely and clean.

Ok hotel. Clean
Hotel was clean. Room was small. But ok. Bed was clean. A little hard. Room was super hot. Woke me up at night. Window opened but no radiator visible to turn down. Breakfast was good. But £2.50 extra for cappuccino was ridiculous. Shower was a dribble. And temperature was either HOT. or COLD. Resteraunt was a reason I picked here. I booked a table. When I came down it was closed and I had a table in the bar. I was the only one eating. Food was nice. But no way it was cooked fresh just for me. The desert had a choux pastry. Was stale and cold. Clearly had been in the fridge. Don’t serve it if your not going to it fresh, but are going to trade of your AA rosette. Plugs in room were hard to access and none by the bed. Just a minor annoyance. Close to bus stop and close to town. I’d probably stay again. But it was an average hotel. Decor a bit dated and could do with a refresh.

We chose this place to stay because of its proximity to Oxford and open car park. While it was pretty nice it suffered from a lack of updates that should have been considered for a $220 room. The tub had a strange folding door that didn't really work right and when opened all the way made a horrendous noise. The power outlets looked like they were from the 80s. The TV did not get almost any channels and was from a good 15 years ago. The queen bed was on a box spring that was too short and the room overall was surprisingly small. It wasn't a bad place but it wasn't particularly great either.

Quiet, relaxing place to stay close to city centre. The bed and bedding was high quality and comfy. The courtyard room was warm with a good power shower. Wide choice of breakfast options which was great value for money. We plan on returning often.

high quality of service and friendly staff. Very kind of them to let us park for the whole day whilst visiting city. Although the bed in our 'Double room' was comfortable, we found the room very small for the price paid. As it only had a small window it was so very warm during the hot weather. There did not seem to be anyway of cooling it. The hallway was however nicely air conditioned.

Guest info - "Your room will NOT BE SERVICED unless requested verbally to reception prior to 1pm on day you require service and the PLEASE SERVICE MY ROOM sign is hung on the door". You have to ask for clean towels, loo roll etc. It may as well be self catering. Breakfast poor also, cobwebs in tiny room.
