The hotel was comfortable and clean, offering all expected amenities, though the room was a bit small. The service was professional and helpful, with a touch of English reserve. The location was great for exploring the city center. The dining experience was a mix of good and limited choices. Overall, a comfortable stay with friendly service in a convenient location.
The hotel exuded a quintessentially British charm with very comfortable rooms and good size beds. Although lacking air conditioning, the rooms provided excellent mattresses and overlooked the vibrant outside seating/bar area. The location was incredibly convenient, nestled in the tranquil Jericho district, just a short distance from Oxford City Centre with easy access to transportation. The dining experience offered a mix of tasty options, albeit with some room for improvement. Overall, a cozy stay with a few minor drawbacks.
I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were immaculate and had all the facilities I could want, including a hairdryer, tea kettle, fan, and iron/board. The bed was very comfortable, and the room and bathroom were spacious. However, there was a little warmth in the room, but they provided a fan. The service was friendly and helpful, but there were some small mishaps with orders. The location was convenient, not far from the center, and had useful parking. The dining experience, though limited in options, was fantastic for vegetarians. The facilities were top-notch, especially considering the value for money.

The hotel offers a mix of pleasant experiences, with clean and comfortable rooms, friendly and supportive service, and a great location for exploring the city center; however, the dining options could be improved with better menu choices.

I absolutely loved my stay at the hotel! The rooms were cosy and exceptionally clean, and the staff were friendly and helpful at all times. However, the dining experience left much to be desired due to being let down by the food. The location was top-notch, offering great access to the city centre, though it was a bit outside the center of Oxford. The hotel was a fantastic choice overall, especially for the price.
