Review score
Score from 361 reviews
“ The location of the Victoria House Hotel was extremely ideal for a night on the town. However, it was quite nosey cause of it's proximity to the street. Altogether, it was definitely worth the price for an overnight stay in Oxford. ”

The location, simply could not have been more central. It was extremely scruffy, the entrance was quite forbidding, reception was a bit laksidasical, one girl very helpful but others sitting around. Not helpful or welcoming.

The location was close to the bust station and restaurants. The beds were comfortable. The room was very small; there was no room to have 2 suitcases open; we had to move the tea tray off the desk and use it for one suitcase while the other was placed on the luggage rack beside the shower. The wallpaper near the skirting board under the window was mouldy and peeling off the wall. The windows were draughty. The bathroom was not clean; the grouting looked as though it had not had a decent clean in a long time. Our breakfast had been ordered for 8.30am; at about 8.45 we received a phone call to say our breakfast would be 15 minutes longer as the staff member had not turned up and would that be ok - we said 'yes', what else could we say! At 9.15 I went to the desk to ask where our breakfast was as we were in Oxford for only one full day and were wasting time waiting for a breakfast which was already 45 minutes late! The breakfast appeared about 9.30am. The bedside stand the phone sat on was wobbly and I could not put my book on it for fear of the stand collapsing totally. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone - overpriced and too small.

It was in a central position, and the room was clean. The receptionists were pleasant. The wi-fi didn't work. The manager wasn't available. The room was very small. Breakfast had to be eaten in the room, which was very cramped. The bathroom mirror light didn't work. The hot water took a long time to come on.

Great central location. Very noisy as is next door to a nightclub. The shower was cold. Breakfast served in room but nowhere to sit & eat except the bed. Mould on the walls. This hotel is VERY overpriced. I wouldn't stay again.

Convenient location. Continental breakfast was good. Overpriced for somewhere with no facilities but maybe that's just Oxford in general. Breakfasts should be advertised as cooked or continental on the site. The whole place is very small, not easy to get luggage up/down the many stairs.

Staff very friendly. Breakfast to your room. Wifi did not work but I gathered this was unusual and they had recently had some changes made that were supposed to improve things. Room and table was quite small so no space for breakfast tray apart from chair/bed/floor.

The staff is as always helpful and easy. Location is perfect for the center of Oxford. Hotel has no breakfast room, but room breakfast is excellent We had a room facing the street, and that was noisy because of the club in the basement, which closes late. We know from previous experience that the rooms to the back are much more quiet.

The breakfast arrived on time and was sufficient although there was not much choice. Weetabix, bran flakes or corn flakes! The location was good It was not very clean. The hotel is above a nightclub which stayed open until very early hours of the morning and was very loud. I did not manage to get to sleep until after 4am!!

I commend the above Breakfast in room a bit strange but probably premises demand it.Very noisy in the night owing to location and nearby premises and one guest tried to access my room at 4 in the morning. That is the reason for my answer to the question below.
