The beds were really comfortable and clean. Thick windows blocked out steer noise really well so quiet even though in busy area. Staff were really friendly and there was snacks in the room for free which was a nice touch given we were really jet lagged and up at 3:30AM:/ reasonably priced given the location would stay here again!

My wife and I had an excellent time at the Oxford Royal Hotel. It was our first time in Oxford and wanted a hotel close to bus and train stations. This hotel location was great for all our needs. Many restaurants were just a 5 minute walk up the street. Our bathroom was newly renovated and the beds were clean and comfortable. We would definitely recommend staying here during your stay in Oxford.

Clean , comfortable & close to everything.

Hotel is very close to train station and within walking distance of most things you’d like to see in Oxford. There’s no lift but staff will help you carry luggage up the stairs. Rooms are clean and bathrooms are big. It’s not luxury, but it’s clean, comfortable & close to everything. I’d definitely stay again.
Twin room.

Nice for a night

Well appointed spot right near the train station. We’re kind enough to hold my bags until the room was ready, then carried them up the flights to my room. Room was simple, but comfortable. lovely chocolates left on the pillows. Sits above a neighborhood bar, so it was quite rowdy at night.
