Linton Lodge Hotel, BW Signature Collection

8/10 Good

"Ideal location for getting the bus into Oxford. Room size, layout and furniture all good. Mattress too hard for me (not a great night's sleep) but fine for my husband. Ceiling cobwebs. Bathroom door needed cleaning. Sink cracked. Bathroom otherwise beautifully clean. Nice toiletries. Wi-fi very patchy. Staff were good and attentive."

voco Oxford Spires by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were brilliant and polite , the location was perfect for access to the main sites to see . There is a cracking little walk from the hotel to the river which gives you a nice evening walk to the folly bridge to then walk into the main area Only issue I have is the ev car charges need to be upgraded as they were extremely slower than usual , charged for 20 hours and only got 15% in it .. but did see this also on other reviews . The room was very quiet and clean . Definately recommend it , the breakfast was very good also with a big selection ."

The Randolph Hotel Oxford, a Graduate by Hilton

10/10 Excellent

"Wonderful stay at this grand old hotel. The staff couldn't have been more friendly and helpful. Gave me some tooth care kits when I realised I'd forgotten my toothpaste. The room was huge, clean and very comfortable with everything I could possibly need. Only slight issue was the tv functionality wasn't great, a few channels didn't work and casting wasn't working at all, but nothing major. If you are here to see the sights of oxford it's perfectly positioned for walking, public transport, shops, even a cinema. Lots of restaurants very close and the Ashmoleum is directly opposite. Thoroughly enjoyed my stay, thank you"
