The room was stunning, with two large windows overlooking The High Street and beautiful old buildings. The style was well designed, understated luxury. The staff were friendly, respectful and attentive at all times and the food was excellent.

    “While its location is superb, but the best thing is its on-site parking. Everything else is nice, though not exceptional given the high price.”

  • Fabulous hotel for location and service.

    “You can’t get more central than this hotel for walking to all the attractions, restaurants and transport. A lovely hotel with clean rooms and friendly staff. Will definitely be staying here again.”

  • Long term stay that was thoroughly delightful. I will be back as soon as I can.

    Harrison · couple · 2026-10-15

    “The only thing better than the location is the staff. I stayed for 3 weeks (!), met nearly every member of the staff of the hotel (and many of the restaurant), and they were completely wonderful, kind, accommodating, and efficient. Management is doing a terrific job. And the location -- right across from the Cathedral and the Bodleian -- is superb.”

  • Wonderful hotel and staff
