If you are traveling to Oxford and want to be close (within walking distance) to everything, this is a cool place. The management is excellent and really willing to help. This place is nothing special, it is a place to lay your head. But it is well cared for and has great staff and a good breakfast.

Difficulty finding and eventually parking our car. Trying to get about was awkward due to all the road works around the hotel Breakfast was ok but only hot food was really toast and coffee. Prefer a place with staff on hand Personally not for us

The Osney Arms is very well located. The communication and instructions are great. The bed was comfortable and was a real king sized bed. Many beds that people in the UK call king sized aren’t really king sized. The rooms and guest house are a little outdated but overall it is a good value for the price.

Location was good. Reasonable walk to Oxford University. The continental breakfast was nice to have. Never saw that anywhere else. Seems like a one man show and he is doing his best. Important to know what you are getting though. This is an old run down property. The carpets are old, dirty and stretched out. Bedding seemed nice.

Self service breakfast with lots of choice, teas, coffee machine, fruit, cereals, breads. Lovely clean kitchen and dining area. We had a King Sized bedroom that was very comfortable. Ensuite very clean and shoerr was excellent. Beautiful curtains in bedroom. Instructions for entry etc very clear. Excellently placed for a 15 minute walk into Oxford. Buses from train station as road closed for train bridge work. We had parking behind the property. We would recommend staying here and would certainly stay again. Thank you.
