Just a couple of minutes away from the train station and very close to the city centre. Very friendly staff who were more than helpful to give you suggestions for seeing things in Oxford outside the obvious ones. A bit old and basic but perfect for a couple of days in Oxford. Some noise outside as there's work at the road to the train station, but that's obviously not the hotel's fault.

This was one of the best hotels I have stayed in. The standard of housekeeping and cleanliness of the room was exceptional. All staff were professional, polite and efficient. The breakfast buffet provided a good selection of healthy foods. I would definitely recommend others to stay at the hotel and would book again if visiting Oxford in the future.

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.

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.

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.

We booked the hotel for seven nights. Upon arrival will the manager took us to the room that he assigned to us that was not in the building where we checked in but an outhouse. The house looked tumble down and he walked us up about 50 winding narrow stairs to what looked like an attic or a crows nest. The room had two single beds and had only room for the beds and had a small window in between with a ram shackle, drape and no air-conditioning. It was horrendous! I told him that we were not going to stay there. I have never seen anything that terrible. When I booked, the pictures provided were beautiful. Breakfast was included and was only yogurt and some muffins, and if you wanted a real breakfast, you had to pay for it. Construction and barricades are completely surrounding the hotel, and there was no mention of that either needless to say. The housekeeping was wonderful and the bathroom and room was very clean except for it the dirty carpets. The staff was very kind and helpful except for Will who gave us the worst possible room, even though there was no one else in the hotel! It was in a great location, but I would not stay at this place! Terrible!
