Wedding Stay

We let reception know we were arriving ahead of check in and when we arrived our room was all ready. The room was spacious and clean, the bed was super comfortable. Although limited time on reception, the staff were so friendly, welcoming and efficient. The breakfast was lovely too. We'd recommend this hotel whole heartedly and would stay there again. Thank you to ALL the staff.

Quiet, Comfortable and Pleasant Stau

I stayed in St. Margaret's Hotel for 7 nights as I was attending a course in Oxford. It is in a quiet, clean and pleasant area which is just a 20-minute walk into the city centre. I had a single room which I found just the right size for my needs and the bed and room itself were very comfortable. The only thing that was a little unhelpful was the 8am start time for breakfast. which meant I didn't have a lot of time before leaving for my course. However, breakfast is taken in a lovely conservatory or in the garden which is a lovely way to start the day.

We had a wonderful stay here. A very nice room, with walkable location and a marvelous breakfast too! The only demerit is the bed which was sagging quite a bit and needs to be replaced. Otherwise, it was a delightful stay for our family of 3.

Comfortable stay (for later risers)

Attending a 2 day educational course in Oxford. Friendly and efficient welcome, although I was taken to the wrong room initially (!) Everything was spotless and comfortable. Good coffee machine in the room, excellent ensuite and toiletries. No air-conditioning but electric fan was in the room. Parking on site was a big plus. Beautiful garden and plenty of seating. Negatives: the reception was locked from 6pm with no access to the breakast area reached through it until 0800, which was too late for me to have any breakfast before I had to leave for my course. Although I was told that I could collect some cold items, I didn’t get the opportunity to do so before 6pm, due to trying to connect to wifi, and therefore missed out on the hotel breakfast. Wifi did not work for my phone at all, and did not work for the TV on day 2 either. Router issue maybe? The hotel is a thick walled old building, and signal was often intermittent. It would help a lot if the breakfast room was accessible without needing to go through reception!! Second morning I didn’t have to leave as early. Excellent breakfast options, helpful staff member, and was able to leave my car there during my course after checking out.

Lovely hotel in a quiet residential area with Oxford town centre about 30 minute walk away. Staff very friendly & helpful, car park not overly big but hotel will do a parking permit so you can park on the road opposite. Breakfast was very good, plenty of selection & as weather was good we sat in the garden, so quiet, definitely recommend this hotel.

A brief but lovely respite.

My stay was amazing. It was brief, but wonderful. Spent time at the Ashmoleum Museum and then settled in at St. Margaret’s Hotel. The gentleman who checked me in was helpful with recommendations for where to get dinner. The complimentary breakfast in the morning was lovely, and I was able to meet and chat with other guests. Thank you for hosting such a pleasant stay.
