Clean and convenient at good pricing. Parking was a bit small and tight for big vehicle and needed expert maneuvering. There is also a small convenience store just beside. Overall great stay!

Newton House is suitable for a quick city break to Oxford, offering a secure room with unique views of its countryside and neighbouring houses from its windows. The bathroom is small but functional, and it is clean enough for the average hotel goer. Still, those with an eye for detail may find that some areas are not cleaned thoroughly or that leftover rubbish is still present in a nook they overlooked during housekeeping. The TV was fine, with some interference during windy weather, so it was perfect for a quiet night in. The Wi-Fi was solid and consistent for those who want screen time away from broadcast TV. Overall, with its location along Abingdon Road, it is convenient for a short stay; however, its housekeeping standards are still impacted by the pandemic era.

Friendly welcome, safe parking although restricted so early arrival required. Easy to walk in to town to shop, eat or go to the theatre. Also time in the morning to go out for breakfast or walk due to being able to leave the car til mid day. overall, a stress free trip.

Felt more like a B&B than a Hotel, but that’s not a bad thing, no breakfast service though. Comfortable room, good size and modern bathroom. Excellent location to allow exploring the city. Would recommend.

Nice welcome from Martin on arrival. Nice clean rooms and TV that actually works! My stay was nice and quiet.Nice to have parking on site too. Appreciated tea and coffee facilities too. Negatives were minor, no plug in sink, would have liked some shampoo /conditioner, couple of lights didn't work. Would recommend.

Complete lie about the Breakfast! That is the whole point of a bed and breakfast. The shows photos of a really nice breakfast. Complete con! I booked less than 2 weeks ago. 24 hours got an email from the owner. Woe is me on about small business. No breakfast and has not been for a long time. That is why I booked for the experience for my kid from the US. Stand up! Stand out! Do be like same old Vrbo.

The property was well maintained and nicely decorated. Beds were comfortable. Shower was lovely. No breakfast served anymore but we didn't need it as we had breakfast plans. I loved having instant hot chocolate and a kettle in the room in addition to instant coffee and tea.The staff were really nice and helpful. Fairly close to the centre and easy route as it's on a main road but not noisy. I'd recommend it and would stay there again.

Tiny and adequate

Great location. It's a 20 minute walk into the town center... but very pretty. Also next to a bus stop. There is a laundry mat down the street. Nice basic place to spend the night. The room was tiny, but clean and adequate.

The room was what I needed in Oxford, clean, fairly comfortable, and a reasonably short walk to the colleges--and quite close to some lovely river walks. The front steps, however, were gathering wrappers and other litter.
