My family and I came here for the Formula One race and had an outstanding experience. From the moment we arrived there was no hassle. The restaurant food is outstanding, Anna and Bushra went above and beyond to accommodate us, including making food after the restaurant had closed. One of the top places I have stayed in with my family in the UK.

Our family of 4 stayed at this quaint hotel just outside of downtown Oxford for a night. Rooms were clean and modern and we had dinner and breakfast in the cafe downstairs. The cafe offered excellent food and staff were very professional and friendly. Highly recommended if you want a quite place within walking distance (15 minutes) from the city center.

Small and friendly hotel, close to Folly bridge and easily walkable to the centre and university areas. Room was clean and comfortable but only one USB port on a table lamp which was slow charging. Cafe was very good and breakfast was lovely.

Staff was exceptionally helpful friendly and accommodating, with Busna and Sam ranking among the best we’ve ever encountered in decades of travel! The hotel was also quite close to Oxford City Centre and the University, so everything we wanted to see was within walking distance. We will definitely be recommending Ethos to our friends and returning in our next trip to England!

A great find in Oxford. Well appointed, comfortable rooms with a good breakfast and even free snacks. Friendly staff. I’d definitely stay here in future visits to Oxford. It’s a good walk from the train station but doable, a ten minute walk to city centre.
