The staff were friendly and super helpful and the room was spacious with a comfortable bed. The shower was over a sunken bath which was rather awkward (suggest conversion to a standard shower base). Overall, would recommend as a place to stay.
Quintessential old English hotel. Rooms are basic but clean and comfortable. Entrance, reception, lounge, breakfast area and bar are definitely 5*.

Warm welcome from front of house. Taken to our room which was fantastic. Server very reasonable drinks before heading out for a meal.
Amazing value for money we will be returning again
Charming hotel with a great location -- perfect to get a bus into the center of town . The staff were all exceptionally friendly and helpful . Will definitely stay here again .
This is a little gem of a hotel in Summertown, Oxford. Exquisite, and very comfortable for any visitor - Convenient bus routes to town centre outside, also M&S a hundred yards away.
This is a gorgeous hotel with plenty of character and a decent location in the North of Oxford, near shops and eateries. As it is a quirky old building, you do hear the footsteps shuffling of your upstairs neighbours, but I would return if ever in town again.
Fabulous stay, team couldn’t be more helpful. Spacious room, fantastic breakfast. Lovely to stay in an independent rather than chain. Will definitely return.
