Guest Reviews

Alexander 8.0

Lovely, helpful staff. Spacious and clean room. Good value for money. Quiet location near the river. Useful facilities in room.

Surinder 8.0

We had a good stay - many thanks. We have stayed before so are used to the location. We could have used an extra blanket at night because of the cold... Having said that the breakfast was awesome (as always) and the reception great, friendly and very helpful.

Stephen 8.0

The breakfast was so nice and staff very friendly

Andy 8.0

Excellent location to both park and ride and the city. Reasonable price for B&B with friendly staff. Our room was a decent size above the cafe with coffee, fridge and enormous TV. Bathroom OK with a static overhead shower, no mixer rail. Heating was fine with an extra plug in radiator if needed - it’s a big bed with sheets and blanket, but despite no duvet we weren’t cold. Good choice of cereals, juice and coffee for breakfast which was included in our booking - we had the full English too which set us up for the day. We were able to leave our suitcase after checkout at the property whilst exploring Oxford for the day. Use the park and ride for £4.50, it’s well worth it to save on parking and congestion charges. Bus on main road is very frequent and only a few stops away from Redbridge car park. Easy 15 minute walk into town.

Irene 8.0

Clean, comfortable, great breakfasts included in price. Lovely hot shower. Had a good night’s sleep on comfortable mattress. Friendly, helpful staff. Just outside congestion charge area!

Francoise 8.0

This is a homely, welcoming hotel, with wonderful friendly and helpful staff, and with a lovely small cafe attached that does very tasty food from breakfast until 11 pm. So helpful when you arrive late and can have good food on the spot. Rooms are furnished comfortably with hot water instantly available in the shower and taps. As everyone says, the location is perfect - a nice quiet neighbourhood with a short pleasant walk to the centre of Oxford.

Josh 8.0

Great location, very good-sized room and great in-room facilities and equipment. Really good breakfast too.

Carol 8.0

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was clean and pleasant. The location was also great being near the town centre but not noisy or in a busy area. It was also great to have a restaurant open till late in the evening where we were able to eat after a late arrival .
