We had a great time at Voco, it's a lovely hotel with great staff. Beautiful pool and grounds, great breakfast. I was a little worried about the location but it was very easy to get the bus to and from central Oxford and the perfect escape from the crowds

Lovely garden location on Thames fairly close to Oxford. Excellent beds and bedding but towels and robes could use an upgrade. Delicious a la carte breakfast.and lots of common areas and gardens. The sister property nearer to Oxford would have been a better choice for us as we would have liked to have been closer to Oxford

This is a true gem of a hotel and we felt that it was perfectly located for our needs. It is a lovely hour long riverside stroll into Oxford Our only complaint would be that you have to pay for parking on site. If parking must be made we would prefer to have the charge added to the bill rather than appear as an extra charge Every staff member was incredible and could not do enough to make our stay more pleasurable. Bonus points for having a sauna and steamroom We will be visiting again Thank you to all at the team at Voco Oxford Thames for making our stay a genuinely enjoyable one
