Jonathan, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Staff were nice and friendly. The property was old. We were given a room that was not accessible by elevator and we had to carry suitcases up the stairs. The room was dated (particularly the bathroom). The beds were not comfortable. I would not rate it as a four star property based on North American standards. The view from the room was great.

Morgan, 5-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Large bedroom and bathroom. Everything was clean and well maintained. Only downside was that I’d hoped to book a massage in the spa whilst my husband was in a meeting, but when I rang to book before arriving, I was told it was closed on Mondays. When I mentioned it at checkout, I was told it was open!
Sue, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Perfect for a stay in Oxford

Very clean, calm and comfortable throughout the hotel. The rooms were very comfortable, spacious and a high decorative order. An excellent selection and good quality of food at breakfast. The waiting service was swift and discrete. Lots of parking and a 15 minute walk into the centre of Oxford.
