Top Examination Schools Hotel Reviews

Malmaison Oxford

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were extra helpful and pleasant"

Vanbrugh House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Nice spot great location friendly staff. Room a bit small but to be expected"

easyhotel Oxford

10/10 Excellent

"Good stay. Highly recommended."

George Street Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location for a very reasonably priced hotel right in the centre of Oxford just 2 mins from Carfax. The room was excellent and I hear that there even better rooms at the top of the property - presumably for an additional cost. No restaurant but an arrangement with the one next door for a reduction of their charges."

The Buttery Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"If you have no mobility issues (there are many steps), but even then, I made it with assistance of darling staff, and my partner. The Buttery is on Broad St pedestrian street, surrounded by great restaurants and a super art supply shop. Real Italian 3 doors down, and next-door Greek breakfasts accept 10% for Buttery patrons. Ashmolean and Randolph Hotel just a couple of minutes and a Tesco as well. Debenhams on the corner. Perfect!"

The Bocardo Hotel

8/10 Good

"Muy cerca de todo. La habitación bien, es funcional a un par de dias."

Ethos Hotel – Oxford City

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent location. Clean room. Breakfast very nice and reasonable. Last but not least the staff were very good. Helpful and friendly."

Mercure Oxford Eastgate Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Car parking extremely limited and tight spaces. Plus it’s in the congestion charging zone which should have been highlighted. Staff didn’t stow bags securely before check in. Nice rooms, clean and good amenities."
