We had an extremely comfortable and enjoyable stay in a wonderfully central location.
Pros:

The room was stunning, with two large windows overlooking The High Street and beautiful old buildings. The style was well designed, understated luxury. The staff were friendly, respectful and attentive at all times and the food was excellent.

Comfortable and convenient
Pros:

While its location is superb, but the best thing is its on-site parking. Everything else is nice, though not exceptional given the high price.

Cons:

The design of the shower is a bit awkward.

Fabulous hotel for location and service.

You can’t get more central than this hotel for walking to all the attractions, restaurants and transport. A lovely hotel with clean rooms and friendly staff. Will definitely be staying here again.

Long term stay that was thoroughly delightful. I will be back as soon as I can.
Pros:

The only thing better than the location is the staff. I stayed for 3 weeks (!), met nearly every member of the staff of the hotel (and many of the restaurant), and they were completely wonderful, kind, accommodating, and efficient. Management is doing a terrific job. And the location -- right across from the Cathedral and the Bodleian -- is superb.

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。
