It's an old historic hotel so the room is dated and basic. But amazing view facing a college. Sofa bed unconfortable should be replaced. The price is too expensive as it's looks more like a guest house.
The good points: Tea, coffee & cake in the room and amazing view facing a college, Fantastic location very easy walk to main attractions .
We liked: Old fashioned property with local charm. Walkable to everything that Oxford has to offer, the university, shopping, culture, pubs. Short walk also to bus depot and train station.
The room was spotless. The bathroom modern and well appointed. The staff was friendly and helped with our luggage.
If you are in need of ambulatory assistance or not in good physical condition, you should request a room on the first floor. We are in our 70s. The stairway to our 3rd floor room was narrow and somewhat trying.
When you check in request a top sheet for the bed. The quilt was way too thick and hot.
Great location. Room was pretty big! Loved the cozy vibe. Lots going on around the hotel so my day time nap wasnât ideal but thatâs not the hotelâs fault. Worth noting itâs a lively area though.
Staff was super helpful.
My only complaint is the door uses a physical key and when your in your room you must use the key to lock it! I would suggest that they put a lock on the inside! I feel this could be a fire hazard as it took me a few minutes to get the door locked and unlocked.
