After trying several hotels in Oxford this is our favourite. The staff are all lovely and very helpful. All the rooms we have stayed in (classic, deluxe and deluxe superior) have been very clean, comfortable and have a really welcoming feel. Rooms at the front of the hotel have views onto

All very pleasant and very English right in the middle of Oxford. Our King room seemed a little pricey, though. Great to have parking in the middle of town, though.

A room on the top floor, great views but still quiet even overlooking the High Street. Hotel Staff and food in Quod excellent too. Central location and car park are much appreciated but beware the Oxford CC Congestion Charge!

Loved the Old Bank. Gorgeous rooms, delicious breakfast in a super central Oxford location. The only disappointment was the gym, a room with a Peloton and a few weights.

The Old Bank Hotel is a great place to stay. It was clean and the staff was very accommodating. They arranged a guided tour of Oxford for us at no charge with a very knowledgeable woman. And the location can't be beat! Highly recommend.
