Great staff, great breakfast, easy access to a bus line that took you straight into town. Nice and close to a drop off f
Pros:

It was close to a bus stop, the outdoor patio area was lovely as was the indoor areas. The staff was fantastic and the breakfast was amazing and worth every penny.

Cons:

The room was pretty cramped, the location of the shower door next to the toilet meant that the toilet paper got wet

Amazing - staff are brilliant
Pros:

Very helpful staff in every area of the hotel who always said ‘good morning’, went the extra mile to be helpful and explained everything clearly.
Excellent furnishings and beautifully clean. I loved the Oxford shoes and shirt theme, which was done stylishly.
Delicious food in the restaurant (especially the Sunday roast) and generous offering at breakfast.
I appreciated staff taking the time to explain how breakfast worked and emphasising that guests could sit where they liked.
Very comfortable bed, excellent facilities in the room and throughout the hotel, with a beautiful fireplace downstairs.

Cons:

The corridor from the reception to the lift is a bit long, which might be challenging for physically disabled guests.
I struggled to get a space in the car park one evening though every other day was fine.
