Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel has a lovely garden view with rooms featuring a generous tea & coffee tray. The shower being in the bedroom may not suit everyone, but opening windows overlooking the beautiful garden make for a pleasant stay.
The hotel is conveniently located in a pleasant residential area in Oxford city centre. The rooms offer a generous tea & coffee tray and a lovely view of the garden. The shower inside the bedroom may not be for everyone, but it adds a unique touch to the space. The service is excellent with friendly staff ready to assist. The dining options cater even to vegetarians with quality products and good taste. Although the facilities are good, some may find the lack of certain amenities disappointing.
I was pleasantly surprised by my stay at this hotel. The room with a garden view was unique, with the shower right in the bedroom, and the so-called private bathroom had opening windows overlooking a beautiful garden. Although the layout was unconventional, it added a quirky touch to the room. The location was ideal, situated in a pleasant residential area that was close to the city center, making it easy to explore Oxford's outer areas. However, the dining experience, even for a vegetarian like me, left something to be desired. The homemade bread was a nice touch, but I felt the overall quality of the products could have been better.
