Fabulous stay

What an amazing place, customer service was brilliant and the whole team were outstanding. They were polite, professional and always available. The hotel itself was beautiful and the courtyard where you could have meals or drinks was magical. Great location and even managed to park the car which in Oxford is gold dust. We stayed in a deluxe room which was beautiful and comfy ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🤩
