My stay at the hotel was delightful. The rooms were modern and spacious, with a small balcony facing the internal garden, and the bathroom/shower was superb. The decoration was top-notch, although it could get a bit warm at night, and the air conditioning was a tad noisy. The location was perfect for exploring Oxford, just a 5-minute walk from the city center. The dining options were a bit pricey but enjoyable, especially with various locations to dine around the hotel.

Staying at this hotel was an absolute delight. The rooms were the cleanest and most comfortable we have experienced, even compared to 5-star hotels. The warm ambiance made it feel like a home away from home, though we did struggle with the air conditioning settings. The service was exceptional, always going above and beyond without being intrusive. The location near the gorgeous St Giles parish church in Oxford was simply perfect for exploring the city. The dining experience was both fantastic and a bit pricey, but the overall value for money was excellent. We were impressed by the facilities and the attention to detail throughout our stay.

The hotel rooms were not overly large, but they were lovely and quite spacious with a separate sitting area for comfort. However, some chairs needed to be changed as there were too many, which was detailed on the website. The service was a bit mixed, with young staff members who were extremely helpful over reserved parking and late check-out, but there was an issue with noise and chair movement. The location was excellent with a real fireplace and charming interior design, although it could get crowded. The dining experience was somewhat disappointing, especially with the need for assistance with bags and the limited meals offered. Facilities were good overall.

I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms were beautifully appointed with modern amenities, and the Junior Suite upgrade came with delightful treats. However, the room was a bit small and lacked storage space. The service was exceptional, with attentive staff willing to go above and beyond to ensure a pleasant stay. The location was perfect, surrounded by the charm of Oxford University campus and within walking distance of attractions. The dining experience was delicious, but the additional charge for breakfast was a downside. The facilities were top-notch, adding to the overall enjoyment of my visit.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The rooms were by far the cleanest and most comfortable I have experienced among many 5-star hotels, but they were a bit small and cluttered with too much furniture. The staff was incredibly welcoming and super friendly. The location next to the gorgeous St Giles parish church was ideal for exploring the main attractions of Oxford. The dining experience was a bit on the expensive side, but the Thai dishes were delicious. The facilities were great overall.

Staying at the hotel felt like being at a posh pub through the restaurant. The rooms were basic but clean and ok, with nice touches like a Nespresso machine and sensor lights in the bathroom. The service was quite nice with over reserved parking and late check-out options, though there were some young and enthusiastic staff members who seemed to lack training. The location couldn't be better, a short walk to town yet quieter, surrounded by the Oxford University campus. The dining experience was excellent, despite some areas being overpriced. The facilities were well-maintained and offered a charming stay for Oxford sightseeing.
