We had two rooms at this boutique hotel for one night. We decided to have dinner at the restaurant and that was an excellent decision. The cleanest hotel that we have stayed at and everything about this property and the food was exceptional. Thank you to all the staff who made us feel at home, especially Mariana who made sure all went well.

Amazing, welcoming, friendly staff. Large, well-appointed room. Great food in the pub. Two minutes from the train station and busses on a quiet, residential street, and just about a 10-15 minute walk to the main area of Oxford. Great experience all around.

Very nice property which located just outside town so very quiet, still less than a 5 minute walk from the station though. Staff were very friendly and room was very pleasant. Breakfast options were different from a usual hotel which made a nice change, the only place in England I’ve seen that gives you a piece of steak with your cooked breakfast. Would definitely stay again!
