Great location, comfortable bed and good shower. Ideal for a stay over so you can see Oxford.

The only issue was the hotel wouldn’t accept my debit card, their machine declined it so they took down my card number. But after that I got 30 odd scam calls, and have had to put a freeze on my card and order a new one. So my bank, Halifax, obviously are very suspicious of the hotel, my partners card was exactly the same.

The staff was very kind. They allowed us to leave our bags after check out so we could have a bit more time exploring the surrounding shops and college gardens before having to leave for home. The room provided a comfortable place to recoup after a day of adventures.

Staff were so polite and helpful. Hotel is immaculate and you have everything you need in your room. There isn’t a restaurant but you’re right in the middle of everything and there are plenty of places in your immediate vicinity

Being really picky but a bit pricey taking into account breakfast not included

Lovely helpful staff member whose pleasant demeanour added our positive reception of hotel

Only accessed via stairs and unfortunately I had recently completed hospital treatment and found the climb with bags and toddler challenging but for any other couple or family in reasonable health this would not prove an issue.

Staff helped to carry our bags to our room. The hotel was centraly located.

The stairs were terrible. Not everybody manage to carry bags up to the rooms. The bed was really small. We needed to ask for additional duvet as we didnt want to share one as mother and daughter.

Location and helpfulness of staff

The bathroom would be improved with a flexible shaving mirror that can also be moved to enable the reflection of the back of the head in the main mirror. Windows could be better sound proofed; I was woken by people talking in the street at 0330am

the room was clean and functional the shower was great good thick towels

I did have a rather compact room - about a third the size of my colleagues and hence sitting on the bed was the option rather than the single chair

Perfect location. Bus from Park and Ride stops outside hotel. Very friendly staff. Good value for money. In the town centre. Close to restaurants. Walking distance to all attractions.

A lift would have been good but as travelling light this time ok.

The location was perfect for what we needed, just by the theatre and by restaurants. The room was clean and ideal for one night to go to the theatre. We would definitely stay there again.

Nothing not to like, it was just as described.
