Top South Oxford Hotel Reviews

easyhotel Oxford

10/10 Excellent

"Well-priced hotel in a very convenient location. There are bus stops just a short walk away, and it’s close to shops and lots of coffee shops. The rooms are very clean and the Wi-Fi is really fast and staffs are very friendly and welcoming. Can’t complain so 10/10!"

Linton Lodge Hotel, BW Signature Collection

8/10 Good

"Was very useful for events in the town centre. Some of the decor/internal needs a bit of TLC but looked clean and functional. Lack of gluten free sausages or hash browns on the breakfast buffet was disappointing but I didnt ask for GF so no idea of they would have provided some. Just perfect budget for a one night stopover before a conference though. Easy check in and I got parking. Thanks"

The Holt Hotel

8/10 Good

"Arrived a little early to be able to check in so went for lunch in the bar which was excellent value and very tasty. On checking out room we found we were at the front facing the road which for us was too noisy so we asked to move,initially we were told No but he checked again a found us a room which was much quieter. The room was very nice, clean and quiet. We decided to eat in the restaurant and again the meals Were very nice and good value. The hotel Was overall good value for money, and the staff friendly and helpful, the only comment on the cleanliness would be to maybe change or clean the carpets in the corridors as they looked dirty."

Cotswolds Hotel & Spa

8/10 Good

"We were given an upgrade to larger room which was ok..but lots of stairs , as third floor and both over 60 lol but appreciated the extra space . Hotel was in good place for visting other places. The meal we had in the restaurant was yummy , i had the fish and chips and hubby had the burger. But breakfast not so good, bacon was hard as was streaky and it was a mix for scrambled egg which was not very nice , tin mushrooms and tomatoes needed cooking longer and sausage and hash brown was ok and beans .Fruit salad was basic was melon and apple maybe 5 grapes sliced in half in it . After restauant being so good was shocked with breakfast feeling so cheap. You also had bread for toast and spreads and yogs and cereal and usuall drinks."
