Never could figure out how to get into the bar/restaurant below -- I'm not sure it was even open? So we never saw any other people/staff. But the room was very nice and comfortable. There are a lot of stairs to get to the rooms, so be prepared for that.

"Great position. "

8.0

Room was nicely decorated and we did appreciate the fridge, and bonus ear plugs and eye masks, though we didn’t really need them as we stayed early in week. The climb to the top was a challenge for us, but may not bother more able bodied people, but I wouldn’t want to try getting big bags up there! My only concern during the stay was the lack of clear fire escape and or emergency details. Top floor and only one way to escape. Whilst we were comfortable, price was good, and the hotel well located.. I wouldn’t stay again, because of my fire concerns. I did note that they appeared to have roof sprinkler system.

No staff on site and trying to find the door in was a bit of a chore as it’s Aaron’s the corner on Circus St. Room was very clean and done up nicely. No air conditioning so that could be a significant issue. They had a fan going and temps dropped a bit during the night so we werefine

I had a wonderful stay at the Mad Hatter! It was a convenient walk to shops, the Christ Church Meadow, restaurants, etc. The eccentric decorations on the property were adorable. The hosts were extremely nice and accommodating. Pro Tip: make sure you do the virtual check-in before you are too jetlagged to understand the instructions! I made the mistake of not handling the check-in until the last minute and I was so tired and confused that I had trouble with understanding the email and completing the check-in The staff was extremely kind and patient with me.

Good location within Oxford. The room was clean ans presentable with a comfortable bed and good size. This place would have gotten a 4 or even 5* review if it weren't for the loud music playing from downstairs. We were told this would stop at midnight, and so we made sure to stay out until past midnight. However, even returning at 1am, the music was still incredibly loud and bassy into the room, up until 2am. Do not stay here if you intend to sleep before 2am.

Lovely room, although extremely hot in Summer. We were grateful for a large fan left in the room. The staff were quite standoffish and we felt like we were a hassle asking for anything, so that is the main reason we didn't give this 4/5.
