Comfortable with a great breakfast
Really comfy bed, great breakfast. Probably the only thing I could say is it was very cold in the main Reception/Hall area. Such a lovely seating area but too cold to stay sat there for more than one drink.

Very Disappointing
A really very disappointing experience for our stay at Oxford VOCO Thames , we made our reservation through hotel.com, the room type that we booked is "Premium Room, 1 King Bed, River View". When we checked in, we were told that there are no room with river view were available. The hotel should have better management to ensure the room type that we paid for is available when we arrive ! This was a really bad experience.
