My wife and I spent a night here at the end of July. We had asked for a room on the first floor, which we given. Check-in was quick and easy. The room, whilst small, had all the aminities necessary, including a kettle with branded tea and coffee, sugar and sweetners, sachets of milk in the mini fridge and two biscuits. There were also two cans of still water in the fridge. There was also a 32-inch flat-screen TV and Free WiFi which worked well.The bathroom toiletries were by L'Occitane and there were plenty of towels provided.
The central location was excellent for seeing the city sights. It was only five minute walk to the bus station and a food market was just around the corner.
I was particularly impressed by the amount of information provided by the hotel prior to our arrival, infrming me of ID to bring, local parking facilities, check-in time, etc. If we visit Oxford again I will certainly consider the Bocardo as my place to stay.
