I really enjoyed my one night stay here. The staff was extremely helpful and took great care of me.
Nice room, good breakfast, and VERY close to the train station. If you are arriving from London you can exit on the platform you arrive on and save a few minutes walk.
Lots of construction at the station itself but this did not cause any noise problems while I was there.
Very nice stay!

Really enjoyed the amazing warm breakfast included with the room. The restaurant is a must, to have some amazing food in the evening. The hotel was quiet, and the bed comfy. The location of the property is in easy walking distance from the train station, a car rental store and also the amazing Oxford city centre.

Stayed for one night in Oxford- Room was clean and comfortable - no air conditioning - we had a comfortable night but may be unbearable in warmer weather. Staff was very accommodating - let us store our luggage both before checkin and after. Stairs leading up to room are very steep- but overall an excellent place to stay .

Excellent all around!
We stayed in a room and had breakfast and dinner. Great room! Comfortable, roomy, beautiful.
Fantastic meal! My husband got the sirloin and thought it was the best steak he’s ever had. Lovely staff, great atmosphere. I’m a vegetarian and also had a wonderful dinner. The breakfast was also delicious. Will always stay here when visiting Oxford.
