Very good,
Score from 116 reviews
“ In a great location - just on the edge of Oxford and yet sufficiently distant to get out of the city when you want to. Park and ride into Oxford is very close, there are pubs and other eateries handy if you don't want to eat at the hotel but the food at The Westwood Hotel is very good and reasonably proced. The staff were especially friendly. ”

Clean and nice interior. Staff pleasant. £145 for Saturday night. Room average. Bed squeaked every time you moved. Function on in dining room so had to eat in bar. View and smell of kitchens from our room. For the price paid we expected better. Also was a good 40 minute walk to Oxford. Had we paid half the price for the room would not have complained. You get what you pay for and we didn't.

Loved the location overlooking the forest. The outside patio area is lovely when the sun is out. Our room was excellent, very clean and comfortable. The lack of efficiency re catering. Mistakes were made when ordering snacks in the evening and breakfast was quite chaotic.

Friendly, flexible and helpful. Organised a sandwich on arrival even though kitchen was not yet open. Initial room was cold and organised to move us to another. Good mattresses so good night sleep. Vegetarian food lacked taste eg. Risotto (Jamie has a good recipe) Soup could have been thicker

I thought the Westwood was really good - really comfortable well appointed room that got the balance of taste and modernity just right for the type of hotel. All the staff were very helpful. Location was excellent for me and really enjoyed my stay - definitely coming back . I stayed in room 6 which couldn't have been better. Only one complaint - a £5 service charge for room service on a £10 food cost - I took issue and it was reversed so ultimately no complaints

It was comfortable and very kind staff specialy Elias who guid us very nicely. Location was little bit away from city center but hotel itself was excellent. I would recommend to other travelers to stay in country west wood hotel. The location and the water overly treated perhaps.
