Really liked the look of the hotel, inside and outside. Room was perfect for what we needed
The only thing I can complain about was the shower temperature was too stiff for me to turn and it was on too hot. My partner had to do it for me. Would be good to loosen it or leave it on a mid temperature.

Central location
Breakfast not included in a hefty room rate. Bed was badly made with bedding not fitting the mattress nor the duvet! Not a boutique luxury hotel!

A beautiful boutique hotel with a peaceful atmosphere set in an accessible central location and only 10 minutes walk from the railway station.Comfortable beds and excellent bathroom facilities.
The staff were very welcoming and helpful.
The continental breakfasts were plentiful and enjoyable, providing for all tastes.
A small lounge area would have been welcomed.
Unfortunately, the restorative building work to the adjacent property caused noise in the mornings, but this was unavoidable and hopefully will be soon completed.

Room very comfortable if small. Location excellent right in the centre of Oxford which was perfect we were attending the Oxford Literacy Festival so most locations where only 5-10 minutes walk. Breakfast was ok but limited choice. Staff were very helpful.
Breakfast was ok but for the price I felt there was very limited choice. Since this is one of the most expensive hotels in Oxford you would expect to have more choice or something hot.

Didn’t buy breakfast because it was extra money.
The TV in my room was not working. Staff unable to solve the problem. So I didn’t watch any TV.

Great location in the centre but away from noise and bustle
Somewhat downbeat atmosphere (staff not enthusiastic) - and breakfast offering not up to standard for the price (industrial sliced bread, not much fruit, all rather tired).

Excellent location very convenient we took the park and ride from Redbridge into Oxford and it was very easy with the hotel being a short walk from the bus stop. The room was comfortable and clean, everything worked as expected and the shower was great. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff and they were very accommodating. Cant tell you about breakfast because we found a little place around the corner which served our purpose. All in all a great stay.
Nothing bad to report
