The Osney Arms was perfect for us staying over night while we attended a wedding near-by. Biplab was wonderfully welcoming and ensured we had everything we needed. Our room was lovely and had everything we could need. We’d definitely stay again and reccomended it to others.

We had a spacious room, which was great. The continental breakfast options were also great. The interior (and exterior) is in need of a very deep clean and paint refresh. It is looking and feeling worn out and tired. Adding to all this is the need to declutter, especially the dining room and kitchen. It was well located.

Great location
We arrived early and were greeted by a very pleasant young man who gave us our key and was apologetic that the room wasn’t quite ready. As it was only 10.30am we were delighted to be able to leave the car, use the bathroom and walk into Oxford. The room was quite small and could do with a paint refresh but it was clean and quiet and we had a great nights sleep.

Good location for centre of Oxford. Parking about OK. Owner/manager accessible when needed. It's what you should expect in a decent guest house.

Lovely hotel to stay in
Exactly what we needed and was a manageable walk in the town centre & back. I think a sign for the fridge would make it clearer that it's in the breakfast area rather than the kitchen but good selection for the continental breakfast

Location of the property was perfect, walkable into the centre of Oxford and also to where we were attending a wedding party. The breakfast was amazing and VERY generous. The only issue was the door to our room opened the wrong way which made getting in and out challenging, particularly with baggage!

The location was great if you are traveling by train as it is walking distance from the station. The property could be really nice with just a few upgrades, however the carpet and bathroom felt a bit dingy. The sheets and towels were of nice quality and very clean. There is no plug in the bathroom or near the mirror in the bedroom so blow drying hair was tricky. The breakfast was fine and the coffee was good.

Guesthouse, shared bathrooms
This place is a guesthouse. This means you’ll share a bathroom and other common spaces with other guests. Had a top floor room. Shared a bathroom with four other rooms; this bathroom had no shower, but a shared bathtub. The place was fine and serviceable if you don’t mind the shared arrangements.

Very good location for sight seeing and reseraunts
The room we had was on the front of the building. So road noise was a bit of a problem. Not sure if some of that was due to the fact that just up the road the were major water works going on. The bed was comfortable. Like most hotel and guest houses in the UK. It was a little run down and could do with some tidying up.
