Beautiful hotel in an ideal location!
Pros:

The location and courtyard were amazing. The rooms are decorated beautifully and very well looked after.

Cons:

I think our room was smaller than expected which was fine for a couple of days but any longer then it would’ve been slightly inconvenient.

日本から娘との二人旅で宿泊に利用しました。とても良いホテルでした！！
Pros:

室内は大変清潔で整頓されており、滞在中とても気持ちよく過ごしました。滞在中Uber Eatsを注文したのですが、受け取っていただいた上にカトラリーやナプキンまで乗せたトレーをお部屋に運んでくれました。朝食もとても美味しく、大満足です。

Luxurious, central and great vibe
Pros:

Amazing location for exploring Oxford on foot. Close to many bars, restaurants and cafes. Rather than prepaying for breakfast we just bought at the property’s restaurant and it was wonderful. The room was luxurious and comfortable and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Appreciated being able to park the car at the property too. Would recommend to anyone visiting for the first time as you really feel part of the Oxford ‘vibe’

Cons:

No room for improvement - all wonderful
