The hotel is in a perfect location in terms of proximity to the railway station and the city centre. The road development work makes the surrounding area a mess although the hotel garden is away from that and very pretty. The staff were friendly and helpful. Our room was very small with only just enough room to walk around the bed and the furniture was old. The continental buffet breakfast was very good, with a particularly good selection of fruit. It was perfectly adequate for a weekend city break.

Delightful, friendly welcoming manager. Small budget hotel slap bang next to the main railway station. Only hitch: noisy construction work late into the night.

Lovely family run hotel in central location. It’s was a bit underwhelming from the outside but the garden is beautiful and the we enjoyed the hospitality. Breakfast was very nice. We will definitely go back next time we travel in Oxford.

This hotel is next to the train station so you will hear and see the trains from your window. There are steep stairs and no lift so I would recommend not bringing any big or heavy luggage. The breakfast is just toast, cereal (only Kellogs products), yogurt, fruit and juice (coffee and tea of course), but if you want anything hot you have to pay extra (for example, Heinz beans on toast will cost you about $5; if you want eggs with bacon and sausage be prepared to pay about $13). It is located on a very busy street and there will be a constant stream of people walking by all day. It is about a fifteen minute walk to the Westgate shopping center on the south end of town, and another fifteen minutes to the central part of town (such as the covered market). It seemed quite expensive for the type of room you get, but Oxford is an expensive city to begin with. Parking is available acrossthe street for about $16 a day.
