A great stop over in Oxford to explore the University. Parking nearby is very expensive.

Comfortable 2 days in Oxford
Pros:

Comfortable bed, room was big enough for 2. Tea, coffee etc available and topped up daily.

Cons:

If you have problems negotiating stairs then let them know. We were on the top floor and no lift as far as we could tell. The shower pressure wasn't very good at all.

Vicino alla stazione ma non centralissimo
Pros:

La vicinanza alla stazione è il personale gentilissimo. Cadeaux all’arrivo e bagni molto spaziosi e nuovi.

Cons:

Senza ascensore e un po distante dal centro, struttura non nuovissima nelle parti comuni. Reception un po trascurata.

Empfehlenswertes Hotel in Oxford in zentraler Lage. Gern wieder!
Pros:

Kürzlich renoviert, für ein traditionelles englisches Hotel sehr gepflegt, großes Zimmer, großes, Bett, zeitgemäßes Bad mit wirklich großer Dusche. Ruhig (wir hatten ein Zimmer zum Hof, wobei die dort vorhandene Haustechnik durch die Fenster kaum zu hören war. Für GB außergewöhnlich gut!). Nettes, zugewandtes Personal.

Cons:

Für uns kein Problem, aber kein Lift fürs Gepäck. Die Frauen an der Rezeption bieten an das zu tragen, aber als alter weißer Mann fühle ich mich unwohl, eine Frau mein Gepäck die Treppen hochtragen zu lassen. Das schaffe ich schon noch selbst 😉
