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."

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!"
