Very good
All reviews shown are from real guest experiences. Only travellers who have booked a stay with us can submit a review. We verify reviews according to our guidelines and publish all reviews, positive or negative.
The bathroom in our ensuite had an aroma of effluent. Night staff were advised but nothing was heard of this again so assume nothing was done about it. Outside the hotel in Merton Street there was a drain with the same problem.
There was a continuous sound of a working airconditioning , maybe..?? so sleep was a problem

Excellent location. Small but adequate room. Did not sleep well either night: room was too hot especially with very warm douvet as only cover and none of 4 pillows soft enough.
Great location, quiet and neat room with good shower pressure. All amenities including bathroom products. Friendly staff, and very comfortable beds. We shall stay again!
The hotel has a beautiful lobby area and gives the vibe of a historic building. The hotel sits across from the Examinations College of Oxford University. The hotel is right off High Street and its an easy walk to the university, shopping and restaurants.
Easy access, clean rooms, lovely spot for a brief holiday.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort
Comfortable and fuss free
A comfortable stay without any issues. For the price, it was fine though do note that things are a little dated and like most old Oxford buildings, the floorboards can be a bit noisey but overall, it was pleasant and clean.
Couldn’t control temperature in room despite using aircon on wall. Far too hot at 3am. Very poor lighting in room. Staff very nice and efficient. Decoration feels ready for a refurb.
