  : Charming little hotel in Summertown, just a short bus ride from Oxford city centre (the buses you can just tap on with a credit card which is very handy!) with some excellent (even starred) restaurants in the area, plus some cheaper ones, plus a good supermarket and other shops just up the road from the hotel. So, a very nice area to stay in and away from tourist hustle and bustle. We had a twin room with a clean, spacious modern bathroom, and the room itself was very nicely furnished and decorated, with comfortable beds with good linen etc. Friendly and helpful staff, the reception areas were decorated with good taste and quirky interesting pieces, breakfast in the large conservatory (with views of the garden) was good, lots of fresh fruit and a hot English breakfast etc, and only one thing - probably time to get one of those auto-coffee machine where guests can press an option and make a cappuccino or espresso etc. Lots of hotels have them now in their breakfast areas. Other than that one small thing (I'm a coffee person) it was a charming hotel and I would very happily stay at again if visiting Oxford.

  : The location was really good. Far enough away from businesses of the city centre but close enough to walk or get the bus into town. The room was small but nice if a little outdated. Plenty shops and restaurants nearby. The man on reception was also lovely
  : For the price and 4 star rating, it was not what you'd expect. Old Victorian building so can hear other guests in their room. Furnishings are slightly outdated. Understand the price is due to location, but for over £150 for one night, I was disappointed.

  : Brilliant friendly staff and really lovely breakfast. Comfortable, quiet and clean.
  : Not a fan of a pane of glass instead of a proper door to shower/toilet. Cups in room were quirky but not very practical ( two mouthfuls of tea ). A little further out of city centre than we would have liked but brilliant bus service right outside front door.
