Hotel on the High street extremely convenient for walking around the town. Good food at the restaurant breakfast and Sunday roast.

Jeanne, USA

Excellent luxury hotel right in the heart of Oxford. Room was very comforable, although a little on the small side. It was also surprisingly quiet as it overlooked the High Street. The restaurant was very good.

Andrew, South Africa

The staff were excellent - they have definitely been schooled to give the greatest level of service to those who stay at the hotel- I would definitely stay at the hotel again and recommend it to others

“Excellent location and lovely hotel,but pricey.”
- • Family with young children
- • Superior Deluxe Double Room

눉Whilst our room was very comfortable and had a lovely view of historic buildings,it wasn't particularly spacious for 3 people,given the high nightly rate of around £475 excluding breakfast.
눇We were attending a University Open Day with our daughter and the location was perfect for the colleges,faculty talks, and all of the historic buildings.The staff were extremely friendly and helpful and we loved the restaurant,which was clearly very popular with a really lively atmosphere and very good food.

“make sure you only stay in a renovated room if you want to sleep”
- • Leisure trip
- • Group of friends
- • Classic Double Room
- • Stayed 2 nights
눉the bedroom we had was unrenovated despite booking 3 months in advance. the comfort of the bed was so bad we could not sleep on it. it was a shame that we were not offered another room unless we paid another 150 pounds, for the price the bedroom was extremely poor quality. the room itself was fine, the bed was just way too old and should have been replaced .
눇the restaurant was good
