You must stay here.
This is one of the best stays we have enjoyed in a hotel. Everything was amazing and we felt so relaxed. The staff are helpful and friendly and the food was delicious. We had intended to eat out but ended up enjoying our meals in the hotel. It is exceptionally clean and well presented with attention to detail. The riverside walk into Oxford is a bonus. Thanks for a lovely special birthday treat.

Staff were welcoming and friendly at all times, from receptionists to cleaners. We use this hotel as a base for visiting granddaughter at the University, it is convenient for that, for shopping in the Westgate Centre and for some beautiful walks along the river.

Car parking charge
In advance of the stay I contacted the hotel on two separate occasions to query a charge for car parking. I was not aware of a charge being levied at the time of making the reservation. I have not received any response from the hotel to my two separate communications and disappointingly had to pay the charge on arrival/check in.

We stayed here when visiting our Son, it was just what we needed after a busy day around Oxford. Lovely comfortable bed. We requested extra pillows for our daughter and they were delivered to our room whilst we were out. Good selection of food for breakfast and staff were very attentive.
