Cons -
- Breakfast was very simple so we had to order something hot from menu.
- no workspace or sitting space in the room other than the bed.

The hotel was within very short walk from Oxford train station and the stuff was very nice. Walk to city center and the university is within 15 minutes.
Breakfast was very simple so we had to order something hot from menu.
Great location for access to the Business school. Clean room.
no workspace or sitting space in the room other than the bed.
Friendly staff and informative about sites nearby. Great location as really close to Oxford center. It was a good deal for the location and last-minute reservation.
Location, staff, cleanliness
Great location near the train station and walking distance to sites, restaurants, shops, etc. Breakfast was nice and staff were very friendly.
While we had been informed of the ongoing construction outside (not the property’s fault) the noise and hours were excessive.
Very helpful and friendly staff. Room and building were very clean. Price was reasonable for high season.
Although it’s not the property’s fault it is currently surrounded by very loud construction. Also the WiFi was very unreliable. Sometimes it was fine, sometimes it stopped completely.
Location was good. Very close to the Oxford station. Staff were all very nice. Room was a bit dated but clean and plenty of hot water was available in the shower. Breakfast in the 'sun room' facing a cute cozy British yard was very nice as well
Helpful staff, good breakfast assortment
Not the fault of the hotel, but major repairs are being done on the street and bridge outside, and it was very noisy.Earplugs made it bearable.
Great location across from train station but temporary road construction (July 2025) made location loud and difficult
The hosts were super kind and polite and the room was nice and tidy they try there best to meet your needs.Location right next to train station, town is super walkable
Wifi is a bit weak
Oxford is an expensive city but here was a really affordable and lovely hotel, friendly staff and perfect location, easy access to train station and quick walk into the city. We stayed as a family and our 2-year old absolutely loved watching the trains, buses, diggers, skips and cranes from the construction site from our window.
Convenient, but it's the staff that really shine. I'm not sure I've ever dealt with hotel staff as friendly, considerate and concerned about your comfort.
The location is noisy with the nearby construction so we generally stayed away until it got quiet in the evening. However, the staff provide excellent screens for the windows to keep out the noise.
Location was ideal. Nice garden with outdoor seating.
Would have liked the bar to be open
Good location. Helpful staff. Good breakfast, both the free and the extra to pay for
Only slight inconvenience due to construction
Good location. Very closed to train station.
Area around the hotel is during construction at the time we stayed.
Staff is friendly, hotel could use upgrades and toiletries too, feels more like a hostel
Room small but ok for stay in Oxford, breakfast nice and service very good, close to Train station so ideal and short walk into town and High street
I enjoyed the breakfasts, especially the little seating area. The location was a little far from main Oxford, but the walk there wasn’t too long.
Very central to train and bus station and central Oxford
Nothing really. Found it welcoming, room was comfy.
