Samuel

Good location within Oxford. The room was clean ans presentable with a comfortable bed and good size. This place would have gotten a 4 or even 5* review if it weren't for the loud music playing from downstairs. We were told this would stop at midnight, and so we made sure to stay out until past midnight. However, even returning at 1am, the music was still incredibly loud and bassy into the room, up until 2am. Do not stay here if you intend to sleep before 2am.

Clean, modern, whimsically-renovated rooms and a superb location. Noise isn't really an issue. Staff is responsive and winsome. I look forward to returning!

Liked: Staff & service
Lovely room, although extremely hot in Summer. We were grateful for a large fan left in the room. The staff were quite standoffish and we felt like we were a hassle asking for anything, so that is the main reason we didn't give this 4/5.

Fabulous hotel, great stay
The hotel was amazing! Ideally situated Lovely themed rooms, very quirky and brilliantly authentic. Spacious, clean, comfortable and great facilities. The staff were attentive and responded swiftly and positively to our communications about the booking. Attention to detail and an even a kind gift for my daughter’s birthday. Would certainly recommend.

The hotel room was extremely clean, comfortable and nicely updated. The area is walkable and close to the High Street area. The only draw back is there is a bar on the first floor and stays open very late. Very loud.

I stayed two nights in the week and really enjoyed my stay, everyone was friendly, the room was lovely and the location great. There is a bar downstairs so I expected some noise and I could hear the music, but it finished between 11 and 11:30 when I stayed so I didn't find it disruptive. I really liked the decoration in the rooms, very nicely thought out, I'd stay again.
