It was a great stay. The room was very large and the beds were super comfortable. The location is just fantastic for central Oxford. There was some noise in the street in the morning, but you will not escape that in the centre of Oxford. I would definitely recommend the hotel

8/10 Very good

Great location. The beds are not as flat as I would like but it is very clean. Staff are kind. Personally wished a little more flexibility regarding my guest being able to drop something off to the hotel on be half of me while I was preoccupied with graduation ceremony (given we had 2 rooms booked for 10 days - we can’t just disappear, and I was providing all information and full responsibility). Very well heated, but a little noisy with people above - but expected as a beautiful historical hotel.

Excellent location right in the centre of town. Room was clean, big and the bed was comfortable. Only negative would be that the room felt stuffy because you couldn't open a window.
