Ethos Hotel – Oxford City

Ethos Hotel – Oxford City

10/10 Excellent
"We had a wonderful stay at the Ethos Hotel, it is very well positioned for a five/ten minute walk into the centre of Oxford. There is parking available for a charge of £29 per night, with £20 of this price being redeemable in the Ethos Cafe which is available for breakfast, meals and drinks. The rooms are very clean, and towels are changed daily. The Ethos Cafe is very clean too and affordable meals available and is a pleasant place to start the day with a breakfast. The staff are very friendly and helpful and I would recommend this hotel for your stay in Oxford."
