Pros - Very clean, air con excellent, staff superb and very central indeed! Lovely toiletries provided. Cons - Can hear outside noise but this was expected being so central and in a busy high street. Shower was very powerful and filled tray but it didn't cause an issue for us. Overall a good stay at this hotel.

This is not a 3 star hotel as advertised, but rather a 1 star hotel with very limited/poor facilities. It is centrally located, but very noisy, as it is near bars and night clubs. It was very loud and noisy until 3-4 am.

We were so happy with our hotel room at the Bocardo which is on George Street so nice and central to everything in Oxford. We did a lot of sight seeing and tourist activities and everything was only a few minutes walk away. The reception staff also gave us a map and marked out our locations for us on it which was really helpful. Our room was nice and spacious with big windows that opened and also had effective curtains that blocked out the light. As an added bonus the room also had air conditioning which can be rare in the UK. We were so comfortable there and the staff were lovely and so kind. We would highly recommend the Bocardo to anyone staying in Oxford.

The staff were very friendly, and we had a comfortable stay. The amenities were excellent as well. Since it’s on a street with many restaurants, the noise at night was a bit noticeable, but apart from that, I was very satisfied.
