Booked for the aesthetic and wasn’t disappointed! The breakfast was delicious and dining area beautiful. My room was just what I needed, though the teacup/saucers were dusty and the electric kettle full of crusty flakes so I unfortunately couldn’t use the in-room tea station. And one of the travel shampoos had already been opened/used in my room. Other than those hiccups, wonderful experience here, would definitely come back.

This hotel is located in the quiet neighborhoods. It takes few minutes to walk to grocery stores. The room was also clean and quiet. I also liked the breakfast options that they provided. The taste was great.

First, the staff are wonderful - friendly and very accommodating. The location is quite convenient for any local shopping or visiting. Summertown is an easy half hour walk from Oxford City Center - or take the bus, of which there are many running throughout the day and evenings. Also, for the four of us, a cab back from city center costs just a bit more than the bus (9 vs 8) We had a twin room on the 3rd floor that was in back - very quiet - and fairly roomy. We would happily book again should we be back.

Everything was perfect, highly recommended, thanks. The room was new, spacious, great bathroom, comfortable bed. Location super convenient for coming off the ring road and easy to get in to to town - masses of buses, we walked (25 mins). Best of all were the staff: all were beyond excellent, nothing was too much trouble. We even left something in the room and had to go back to get it... it was waiting at reception when we returned. Congratulations to all for an outstanding job.

This is a very nice and unique hotel, true to the pictures. Although the room was small, like most hotels in Europe, it provided the right amount of space and didn't bother me at all. The room was decorated with taste and detail. The hotel is not in downtown, so you either walk for around 30 minutes, which I did most of the time, or you have to take the bus, which is conveniently close to the hotel. The only time I took the bus was when I arrived and left, as I had a carry-on; otherwise, it’s a nice walk to the city center.
