Excellent location. Charming hotel a tad noisy from the street below, and we could hear and feel the movement of people in the hall, however the place is old and one should expect that these older houses are not built to today's expected noise elimination standards. Overall can recommend for a few nights stay in Oxford.

Boasting magnificent academic heritage, Oxford is a beautiful city where Gothic spires intermingle with medieval colleges. Comprising England’s oldest university, most of the 38 unique colleges are sadly only viewable from the outside. Two visitable ones are Magdalen College, considered one of the most beautiful, and Christchurch College whose quadrangle was used in the 1st Harry Potter film. Its cathedral choir also sings evensong.
Other notable colleges are Balliol and Merton, the 2 oldest, while Hertford College has the Bridge of Sighs. Next door is the cavernous Bodleian Library, overlooking the round Radcliffe Camera, the city’s best-known landmark.
The university also has a botanical garden and the best Oxford museums, including the Ashmolean Museum and Natural History Museum, where swifts nest in summer.
Unsurprisingly for a student town, it has lots of bars and restaurants. Oxford shopping is also good and includes England’s oldest covered market, brightly coloured High Street shops, and the Clarendon and Westgate shopping centres.
Whether you arrive by road or fly into London Oxford Airport, don’t leave without trying Oxford punting. In contrast to rival Cambridge, you punt here by standing in the front (rather than on the back). Easily accessed from the Oxford accommodation on Booking.com, the routes take in the River Cherwell and the Isis (the name for this part of the Thames).
We had a two day trip which was perfect. There isn’t a lot to see or do.
You need to have a walking tour to see the colleges and learn history. You can book to go inside a number of the buildings. The botanical garden is a lovely visit. A river trip is a good experience.
There are some very good English pubs in the city and surrounding areas worth a visit.
Blenheim Palace is worth a visit but is 30 minutes away.
It’s not a shopping city.

I liked being outside teh city centre - with Oxford you need to be right in the city (often expensive) or right out. In summer the tourist crowds can be oppressive outside teh colleges, so it's nice to hve a peaceful place to come back to.
Tripadviser has great recommendations.

It is a very beautiful, intricate and fascinating place with wonderful museums and a wide range of events and activities every day and evening. The local people are very hospitable, kind and accommodating. So many people were happy to help me and give me advice or just have a conversation with a visitor.

Beautiful city. Calm and relaxed.
Beautiful city. Calm and relaxed. People are courteous and polite. Loved the slow life. City centre doesn’t have many attractions so one can take the 2 hr. Walking tour. Many great places to eat . And all under one roof Westgate shopping centre too.

Lovely place to visit.
Lovely place to visit. I went as my family grew up in Oxford and I have never been before. Drove from Oxford to Fritwell, then onto Bicester. Lovely little trip. The city centre was beautiful, so much to do in the short time I was there.

The hotel is very unique.
The hotel is very unique. We stayed in one of the cell rooms which added to the experience. I think if you didn’t stay in one of the cell rooms, it would feel like staying in any other nice hotel. Just bare in mind that the cell rooms do not have a window that you can look out of, only a little window near the ceiling, it is literally 2-3 old Victorian prison cells converted into one room, so you wouldn’t expect there to be a window to look out of. The cell room feels very spacious and very nicely converted, with a prison vibe going on. If you are driving to the hotel, to avoid disappointment, make sure you reserve parking. Parking is VERY limited.
We had an evening meal in the hotel, which was excellent, a little over priced maybe? So I was expecting an excellent breakfast, but sadly not. I had full English and my breakfast was warm, not hot. Found the bacon and potato croquettes quite rubbery. I felt my breakfast was probably cooked an hour ago and was kept under one of them warming lights. Even if my breakfast was freshly cooked, I still think for breakfast it was extremely over priced.
Over all the hotel was superb and is in a fantastic location, centre of Oxford. Everything you want to see and do in Oxford is all within walking distance.
I would gladly recommend this hotel.
Our room was clean and had all the essentials. Staff were friendly and helpful. The decor in the downstairs area was really lovely and colourful. Breakfast was good and they had decent vegetarian options, although it finished quite early (9am). They also allowed me to check out 30 mins late as I had a work meeting in the morning which I wanted to take from the room. Also, the price is really good for Oxford which is generally quite expensive for hotels. There is a bus stop right outside the hotel with regular buses going to the city centre.
Staff throughout the hotel were welcoming, friendly, helpful and efficient.
The hotel is in the leafy suburbs of Oxford with good links to the city centre, the grounds are lovely and it felt peaceful and safe.
We had a privilege room which was larger than the standard double and very comfortable.
Breakfast was great with plenty of choice - buffet style - with individual items cooked to order.
The hotel has recently been refurbished and restyled, the terrace and grounds were excellant and the whole place had a relaxed atmosphere.
Hotel is airy, spacious, and well located for access to good restaurants in Summertown, and the 30-minute walk to the city center is v interesting, taking you past many Oxford University buildings and colleges. The aesthetic of the hotel is cool -- there are some innovative murals in the lobby, as well as an old-fashioned bookcase, and generally there's a very fresh and original adaptation of space (this is two Victorian houses merged into one premises). Staff all very friendly.
A quiet little hotel with wonderful staff in North Oxford right next to St Hughes College. My room was small but very nicely appointed with lovely views over the garden. Listening to the birds in the morning was super. Everything was so comfortable, cozy and just right. Lovely breakfast in the morning served in the conservatory with, again, garden views. It is a peaceful, well-run establishment and I look forward to returning often.
This hotel is incredibly clean and so well run, the staff were naturally friendly and helpful, a real asset to the owners. I could not find any fault at all. The breakfast was the best I have had in many years at a hotel, so we'll cooked, high quality and fresh.
Softer pillows is the only thing I could say, but that's personal preference. I won't stay anywhere else when in Oxford now.
The location is very good. It was very easy to walk to Oxford city centre in 25min. I appreciate the persons at the reception...Diana, Ruby etc...but the best of the hotel is the comfort of the bed...I stayed in a kingsize bed sleeping as in a dream :). Pillows very comfortable and the temperature of the room good for sleeping. If you are going to go in Oxford, this hotel is for you...
You can't beat the location. The hotel is located not further than 200 mts from the bus station and on a walking distance from the train station and every amenity in Oxford.
The personnel were extremely nice and accommodating. They kept our bags safely while we were out before our check-in and even after the check-out. The bathroom and linens were also very clean.
Staff were very friendly and helpful, especially during breakfast. The room was good size and clean; had everything we needed (e.g. iron) without asking room service. Hotel décor is nice. Gym has modern equipment. Oxford city centre is within walking distance. Nearby there is a Thames path and a horse field, which set the hotel in a beautiful surrounding.
This hotel is a great find. Located right in the city centre, within a very beautiful listed building, it’s perfect for exploring Oxford. Great coffee shop a few doors down where you can grab a pastry for breakfast. Staff were really friendly and helpful in allowing us to store our bags after checkout
Good value for Oxford. Convenient for St Anne’s college. Up to 30 mins walk to city centre or short bus ride but plenty of bars and restaurants close to hotel - Jericho or Summertown not too far. Lady on reception was lovely - I think her name was Anja
Breakfast was excellent with loads of options
Located in a much peaceful and calm area. But easy to commute.
Bus stop is 5 minutes away from the hotel to go to the city. Every 12 minutes service. 15 minutes bus drive to reach the Oxford city centre.
Very Good Breakfast with all egg options.
Provided couple of hours late checkout option.
Great location, easy access to buses into Oxford City centre from outside the hotel.
Hotel was lovely, friendly and efficient staff. Room was clean and well equipped, comfortable bed. Great breakfast, lots of choice.
Will definitely stay again if back in Oxford.
Location & parking. We booked this hotel due to it's proximity to Oxford City centre & that parking was available. There was no issue with us arriving a couple of hours before check-in and leaving the car in the car park whilst we walked into the centre.
This was bay far the best hotel to stay at for being in the center of Oxford but also in a small, picturesque setting. The hotel has all the facilities you could want, excellent breakfast, rooftop garden seating, nice rooms, it’s expensive but worth it.
Nick, the hotel manager, upgraded my room because my room was in an outside building that meant I would have to go in and out of the rain. I was already soaked waiting for a taxi after getting off the train in Oxford
The bed was comfortable, and the room was clean. Whilst there was nobody actually working at the hotel, when I called through the woman I spoke with was very pleasant. It was an easy walk to the centre of Oxford.
I liked that it felt more like a university conference centre (which is what it is) than like a normal hotel. Staff were helpful. Very near Oxford City Centre - not an easy place to find accommodation.
We loved the uniqueness of the hotel and it's history. The location was very convenient for a quick trip to Oxford, and it was nice not to have to worry about parking.
The hotel has a good location in relation to Oxford city centre. The staff are friendly and the breakfast, which you can optionally order yourself, is very tasty.
