Good hotel but unhappy with hidden extra cost
Enjoyed the hotel but deeply unhappy to find an extra cost applied to our bill as a tip for the cleaning staff. We were not asked about this and therefore had to make extra effort to have it removed. Don’t like hidden costs so will stay elsewhere when next in Oxford.

Fabulous stay
What an amazing place, customer service was brilliant and the whole team were outstanding. They were polite, professional and always available. The hotel itself was beautiful and the courtyard where you could have meals or drinks was magical. Great location and even managed to park the car which in Oxford is gold dust. We stayed in a deluxe room which was beautiful and comfy ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🤩

Thoroughly enjoyable
We had a really lovely stay. All the staff were very helpful and friendly. Our room was perfect although disappointed to find all the lights on in our room after the house staff had been in to make the beds and we’d been out all day. Thought meals were expensive for what they were and in comparison with similar quality elsewhere, although delicious nonetheless. Hotel is well located for visiting Oxford centre and room not noisy.

City break
Always a lovely stay. However, I had sadly left some items in the room, on the desk. They failed to make it to lost and found, which only means one thing...... shame but items easily replaceable. Great location and always enjoy my stay here.

Very small room for the price and the queen Bed was the size of uUS double bed - very small. The room just about only fit the bed and a tiny bit extra space. Very expensive for $450 a night. Also I consistently feel like booking through Expedia in Europe you get the worst rooms.
