Classic Comfort in Oxford
Pros:

Beautiful building. The decor and overall aesthetic are absolutely wonderful. The restaurant served an excellent breakfast. Comfortable rooms with cozy beds.

Cons:

Not much, it was great. A bathtub would have completed my experience, but I’m not sure if they have them.

Historic property that could use an update.
Pros:

Great location, historic and charmingly decorated property. Very close and convenient to colleges, museums and rail, bus stations.

Cons:

Bed was extremely weird. Seemed old, lumpy and too soft. Strange lighting made it difficult to read in bed as the chairs near the one reading lamp were quite uncomfortable. Bathroom sink water pressure was low and the windows looking out at the view could really have used a wash.

What ever happened to the doorman. Always there and ready to assist. There was no one to be seen inside or outside. Had
Pros:

Nice decor.
Always love the piano room.
Overall I will always return when I can.

Food fine ,location is where we wanted to be, but room was a massive let down.
Pros:

the Alice restaurant Was good particularly the Romanian Maitre .

Cons:

Room 21 should be closed and used as a boot room or something similar.It is soooo small and cold even with the aircon switched off.One of the worst rooms I have ever had the misfortune to stay in.And I have travelled around the world extensively in my time.

Pros:

Het eten was afschuwelijk. Kregen frietjes en tosti roomservice. Tosti was nog bevroren van binnen. En de frietjes waren al erg afgekoeld bij levering. De verwachtingen waren hoog. Maar de realiteit was erg teleurstellend.
