Free breakfast was adequate for a few days but got too routine for our 5 day stay. Water pressure for our 3rd floor room was unacceptable as well as water temperature. Shampoo disappeared every other day. All of the staff were exceedingly nice.

Friendly hotel

Easy check in, friendly owners. Ideally placed close, to train station and walking into Oxford. Bedroom compact but had everything we needed hairdryer on request. It was very clean and the bed was comfy. Continental breakfast and option to upgrade to cooked breakfast. Work going on outside but did not hamper our stay. Would return.

Good location average place to stay

Location good with a short walk not the city centre. Staff, very friendly. Breakfast very basic, cereals, juice, coffee/tea, some fruit, toast and pastries included anything else is charged extra. Parking at another hotel £12,50 a night. Hotel, not sure you can call it that more like a B&B, we were in the Annexe rooms, short walk from the hotel, but the room was very dated, bed was not comfortable along with very basic amenities and not even a wardrobe in the room, shared bathroom was ok, newly renovated. Place is not worth the money we paid that’s for sure.

Kia

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Breakfast was good and the staff were great, but it struggled to make up for the uncomfortable room. The ‘annex’ to the hotel is an old run down single front house that is down the street and around the corner, a bit further than we anticipated carrying our luggage. The beds were not particularly comfortable and the heat seemed to trap in the room no matter how long we left the windows open. Definitely dated for the price.

Lovely Hotel

Great hotel with excellent location to the city of Oxford. The staff were really friendly and helpful and the beds comfortable. We stayed in the annexe with a shared bathroom but this was absolutely fine. I loved sitting in the garden area and the whole hotel had a nice homely feel to it. The continental breakfast is included in the room price but for a little extra you can order hot food. This always came really promptly and was freshly cooked. I will definitely stay here again when I next visit Oxford. My kids loved it too.

Not a true 3-star—barely a 2. No soap, noisy despite odd window panels, and “free” breakfast came with a charge. Staff were kind, and location *might* be great… once the roadworks end in August 2026.

Cute hotel near train station

Cute hotel that has a BnB vibe, very close to train station. It was a hot weekend and the staff there went out of their way to provide a fan for the room. Breakfast was great and the garden spaces is quaint. Very convenient to Oxford city center and university area. Bathrooms were shared but there was a WC and shower on each floor shared between 3 rooms.

Cheap hotel I wont stay again

I had a second floor room without en suite up a tight staircase in a separate annexe away from main hotel It was a very poor standard that should be reflected more in price paid - breakfast rudimentary and charged extra for cooked. This should be made clear on your site.
