Our third stay and it’s just a fantastic time every time. Cozy, authentic. Great bathrooms and showers, thick fluffy towels, very quiet — it feels like you’re staying in a wealthy friend’s manor house. So amazing to stay in a luxury hotel that’s not become corporate and impersonal.

I chose this hotel based on its location and other reviews and was not disappointed. Incredibly helpful and friendly staff - we arrived before check-in time but were offered a complimentary coffee before we headed back out again after leaving our cases. When we returned, our cases were already in our room and were shown around our room. An à la carte breakfast is provided in the Quod restaurant which we made use of every day. Home made biscuits, fresh milk, ground coffee, tea and bottled water in our room were replaced every day. The air conditioning was excellent - so simple to operate as well. There is an optional 5% service charge on check out but I had no qualms at all in paying this as the staff are so brilliant at making this hotel so special. We will certainly choose to stay here again should we return to Oxford in future.

All very pleasant and very English right in the middle of Oxford. Our King room seemed a little pricey, though. Great to have parking in the middle of town, though.
