Disappointed

The staff were amazing, very helpful, the food was good. The hotel just seemed very dated. There was a damp smell in one of the corridors on our way to our room which got to us a bit.

Family room stay - disappointing

Family room was comfy but the condition of the beds and the bathroom were tired. Toilet roll holder missing and broken off the wall . The King size bed frame was chipped and one of the single beds was unstable . The shower was old fashioned and some hairs in the plug hole . We were going to have breakfast but didnMt because it was £6.50 for the continental which was bas silly a bowl of apples oranges and bananas and some cereal in small Kellogs boxes and a few butter croissant and the usual toast and marmalade . For £10.50 you could have the same buffet and a cooked breakfast . It wasn’t good value for money and the quality of the breakfast was poor so wouldn’t bother . For a one night Stopover it is ok. But again still pricey For the quality of the room . Premier Inn is better value and quality in comparison .

The hotel was very run down, cold as the central heating didn’t appear to be working. We paid 6.50 for the continental which was of very poor quality and was very limited, I did complain and they reduced the price. The bar and hotel closed at 10pm which was most odd on a Saturday evening...

Accomodatie was oud en slecht onderhouden. Ontbijt werd geserveerd in een oude grote zaal, terwijl deze makkelijk geserveerd kon worden in de bar, wat n veel gezelligere en geschiktere ruimte was. Afstand tot centrum stad is veel groter dan wordt vermeld.

Pleasant Place with good food and service

The Westwood Inn is on the outskirts of Oxford. The Inn and gardens were very lovely and the dinner menu selections were very appealing and quite tasty. The check in staff and restaurant staff were extremely accommodating and friendly. Unfortunately the place feels a bit worn and could use a nice sprucing up. It was also on a busy road which did quiet down each night. If you are driving to Oxford and need a place with ample parking and good food The Westwood clearly fits the bill.

Beautiful property

Lovely property! Away from the hustle & bustle of the city (& London). Our room was spacious and well lit. Having tea on the balcony on a sunny summer morning was a great holiday perk. Everyone of the staff was helpful and friendly. Appreciated their help in booking cabs to get us to & fro from the city.

My bed was quite old and not so comfortable. The paint of the walls was dirty and the carpet was also old. It need some improvement.
