What's not to like here... Excellent location near the station (hopefully the construction will be done at some point in the future). But the real BANG is Porterhouse itself. Small scale hotel. Comfortable/luxurious rooms in a charming old building. Excellent beds (with duvet!!!!). Super luxy bathroom. Awesome shower. And then there is the restaurant. The breakfast is so good that you don't anything until supper. Go for the Porterhouse Grill. And then supper... Boy. That meat... We first had the sirloin which was super good, but even that paled in comparison with the chateau briand. The staff was friendly, helpful and showed a good sense of humour too! Maxium number of stars. And then some!

Totally out of the hotel's control: the construction work in the near vicinity. Slightly annoying, but we will remember our stay because of the many, many positive things.

Hotel Review We stayed at this hotel for one night with a friend and absolutely loved it. The location is convenient, and there’s a lovely pub downstairs with an aesthetic interior and delicious breakfast. The room was spacious, warm, and beautifully designed, with a very comfortable bed. Everything was excellent and of a high standard. The staff were also incredibly friendly and welcoming. Being close to the train station made the location even more convenient. Overall, our stay was wonderful, and if we visit Oxford again, we’ll definitely stay here.

The room was a generous size and very comfortable. Shower was great and bed was comfortable. Breakfasts were included and delicious we loved the Eggs Benedict with bacon. We did not eat dinner there but enjoyed the beer in the comfortable bar. Most of the staff were helpful and friendly and we enjoyed our stay there. Great location for walking into Oxford and close to the station. Would recommend it and would stay there again.

The lighting by the bed is inadequate. We are readers and luckily travel with small book lights which we definitely needed! There was construction going on close by so a bit noisy in the mornings but not the fault of the Porterhouse Grill.

beautiful cozy hotel in very english style, comfortable bed, all equipment needed. Location is also great, over the corner from the railway station, aprox. 15 min walk to the center, but you can also take the bus.

the only downside would be the breakfast. the waiter was very confused first forgot about us, then left completely, croissants were not eatable.

Room was nicely decorated. Bed was comfy and there was a coffee machine in the room with milk and water in the fridge downstairs. Good location and lovely breakfast in the morning.

One downside is that it was a really warm day so we had to sleep with the window open as the room was absolutely boiling. Even with a dyson air conditioner and a fan, it was really warm. There is a smokehouse in the kitchen somewhere so our whole room stank of smoke as we must have been directly above it. Really unpleasant smell, so had to keep the window shut so we couldn't get any ventilation.

The room was large and comfortable. The shower was excellent with instant hot water and plenty of water pressure. There was plenty of room to store things conveniently. Breakfast was very high class in the steakhouse, with steak, bacon, muffins, and poached eggs, as well as cereal, yogurt, juice, and tea or coffee. It was easy to find walking from the train station.

We stayed on the 3rd floor (no lift), and the stairs were narrow and a little wonky, so getting luggage up and back down was tricky.

The breakfast was excellent, especially the porterhouse grill breakfast which was the best I've had in any hotel in the UK, it actually had a small piece of steak! And it tasted unbelievably good, the eggs were so tender, I've never had such a tender poached egg. The room is spacious and well-equipped. Water, milk and fruit are provided at the corner on the first floor. The bedding is very comfortable.

The location is a little bit far from the town center but close to the train station. 17 mins by foot.

Nice location really and it’s a fit in-one place. Love the restaurant and the bar. The food was excellent at dinner though embrace yourself on the cost.

Awful breakfast options, at that level of restaurant for dinner … breakfast should be far better off. Feels like the chef and kitchen quite calm on the breakfast. Dinner or restaurant also start too late. I think 6/8 but I wanted to have dinner early to avoid late eating but couldn’t.

4 minute walk to Oxford train station. The rooms were exceptionally clean (albeit slanted because of the old building). The bed was superbly comfortable. Breakfast was very limited but you did get to order one a la carte item which was average: the staff were very friendly but there was no microwave in the property at all!! So no reheating coffee even. Which was very strange. Perfect for what I needed.

No lift, older house meant lots of stairs!

The room and dining hall were decorated very sophisticated. Great value for money. Close to train station, so easy to drop off bags and then go to explore. Dinner at restaurant was delicious. Staff was very attentive and polite. The room even had Dyson fans.

The only criticism I have is that it would have been great to a have a bigger smart TV that had app options. To allow for streaming netflix on it. I forgot my laptop at home. And nothing on Freeview Easter weekend. Otherwise it was a wonderful stay and the room and staff were amazing.
