Guest Reviews
- Maria (10/5): Estupenda súper amables súper limpio - Todo Nada
- Rajesh (8/5): -
- ELSAMARIE (8/5): Convenient location - The room was very comfortable and the location was very convenient for my meetings. The bus stop was quite close. There is no elevator to carry my bags upstairs.
- Lucy (6/5): - Clean and close to the centre and river! Room was on the road so was noisy and light flooded in. It was stuffy and had a strange smell.
- Geoffrey (7/5): Enjoyed our stay - I upgraded to a king room as it was bigger than the standard. The en-suite was excellent and very clean, nice addition of a mini fridge, small sofa and a tv. Good WiFi. 15 minutes walk to the centre of Oxford The bed wasn’t very comfortable and could do with a new mattress. Didn’t have breakfast as they only do continental and was overpriced in my opinion. Only parking for 6 cars.
- Arie van Herk (9/5): - Mooi Guest House, vriendelijk medewerkers. Prima locatie, in 15 min lopen in mooie centrum. Nvt
- Anne (8/5): We enjoyed our stay in the comfortable and clean location - The property was comfortable and well priced There are lots of stairs and no lifts
- Janine (8/5): Great short break. 25 walk into Oxford. - Clean, comfortable A bit cold in the room
- Julio Concepción (5/5): - La ubicación La antipatía de los encargados
- Helgi (7/5): -
- Charles (10/5): -
- Luke (1/5): -
- Felix_Krull (9/5): -
- Iain (8/5): - The welcome was excellent. Nothing to not like, although the floor boards were quite creaky.
- Francesca (8/5): -
- Mark (9/5): Very good value for the price - The room cost £110. For the price it was clean and comfortable, big enough, everything worked, well located and staff was friendly and efficient. I’m happy!at the price, Could have had help getting bags two flights up to the room
- Gudrun (8/5): War alles sehr schön. - Die Stadt war gut zu Fuß zu erreichen . Eine Bushaltestelle war in wenigen Metern Entfernung. Unser Zimmer war frisch renoviert , das Bad geräumig. Zimmer zur Straße raus war etwas laut ,bei geöffneten Fenster.
- Tanja (9/5): Good guesthouse! - Very nice guesthouse. Perfect location, spotless room, good breakfast. Thank you!
- fabienne (8/5): Oxford est une ville agréable - très bon emplacement, on peut se rendre facilement au centre d'Oxford et pouvoir se garer dans un parking privé c'est très appréciable
- Gregie (8/5): -
- Susan (10/5): - Location was perfect. Host was very helpful. Everything seemed to be brand new and well organised.
- Nicole (7/5): Prima accommodatie op goede locatie maar verwacht geen luxe. - De manager was erg aardig en we mochten onze bagage in de hal laten staan zowel op de dag van aankomst als na uitchecken. Dat was erg fijn omdat we na uitchecken nog een halve dag hadden om Oxford te verkennen.
De ligging was prima, op loopafstand van centrum en alle bezienswaardigheden. De straat is erg druk en er is veel verkeerslawaai. Je moet dus slapen met het raam dicht als je kamer aan de voorkant is. Er waren ook veel trappen en tussen de trappen waren brandwerende deuren die lastig waren met het koffers naar boven sjouwen. Dus let goed op als je boekt op welke verdieping je kamer is.
- joanna (9/5): Sportsview hotel good value Oxford stay - It was a lovely room on the ground floor, the family room no.22, so no stairs which was great for me with a suitcase. Everything looked new. Great tea and coffee and kettle facility in room . Comfortable beds and we were able to check in a little earlier as room was ready. Plenty of hangers in cupboards and drawer and desk space A little coffee table and 2 chairs to sit to have your cup of tea..We were able to leave our cases on check out and pick them up later in the day.
Bus stop outside but also only a 10 minute walk in to the centre of Oxford. There was no fridge or micowave.
No flannels or face cloth.
You could hear the TV next door but not loudly. Otherwise it was great.
- Mika (7/5): -
- Federico (9/5): Ottima base per qualche giorno a Oxford - Camera molto silenziosa e pulita.
Letto grande e comodissimo.
Scrivania utile per lavorare, con la lampada. Bagno pulito.
Asciugacapelli presente. Salire al quarto piano non è semplicissimo soprattutto per lo spazio ristretto delle scale.
Bagno piccolo.
Il bollitore non funzionava
- Wiktoria (9/5): - Great location - just a 15-minute walk to the city center. Very friendly staff and a spacious room that had everything needed. The windows were a bit leaky, so it was quite noisy and slightly cold.
- Mark (10/5): Fab stay - Small but perfectly formed. Close to all the main sights in Oxford. Nothing
- Terri (9/5): -
- Simone (6/5): -
- Gouw (9/5): Prima, schoon verblijf met wijds groen uitzicht met goede busverbindingen. - Het uitzicht was wijds, fijn dat je gratis kon parkeren, bedden en handdoeken waren schoon, redelijk goed gelegen bij het centrum, vlakbij een bushalte, ook al hadden we die niet nodig. Inchecken en uitchecken ging lekker vlot. De kaart was handig! Advies om in de stad te gaan lunchen was economisch. De afwerking van de redelijk kleine kamer was hier en daar wat slordig, de douche lekte veel water over de vloer, waardoor die erg nat werd. Ontbijt was al vol, maar was 12.50£ p.p. aan de prijs als je met 4 bent. Het is aan een drukke weg, en de sportvelden zijn vergane glorie(?).
- Sarah (8/5): -
- karen (7/5): Oxford aportsview - Lovely large room. Very clean. Only about 15 mins from city centre The initial welcome was slightly brusque. But the overall impression of the staff was helpful.
- Michael (7/5): -
- Portia (10/5): - It was a lovely little room, very comfortable with everything I needed. Nice and quiet area, not too far from the centre. Staff were very helpful and welcoming. Nothing! Everything I needed for an overnight stay.
- Emidia (7/5): - Hotel silenzioso che ha tutto ciò di cui puoi aver bisogno la posizione è un poco decentrata, ma neppure troppo
- Lebrun (8/5): - Près du centre et du parc magnifique de Christ Church.
- Ann-Marie (9/5): - Room The wind was whistling loudly due to faulty seal in the windows.
- Birgit (10/5): - Very friendly owners/staff
Our room was comfortable, no noise during the night
Short walking distance to the city center, a real find for the price
- Elisabetta (9/5): Hotel consigliato - L’ambiente nuovo/moderno e pulito Nulla
- Barbara (8/5): -
- Raquel (8/5): Buen alojamiento para un fin de semana. - Está bien situado, habitación muy limpia. Subir y bajar maletas no es muy cómodo, escalera muy estrecha, no hay ascensor.
- Dennis (7/5): -
- Laurence (8/5): Une belle chambre familiale - Appartement bien placé au calme. Bonne literie et café/thé à disposition Tout était comme attendu. Pas de surprise
- Luiz (9/5): -
- Stephen (10/5): - Pretty good and decent accommodation for travellers into Oxford. Includes car parking. No neighbouring buildings which give a clear view of surroundings from room. A little far from Oxford town centre.
- William (7/5): OK - Location...close to city centre. It was ok. Functional. Was not exceptionally inviting.
- Richard (3/5): Assez bien - Chambre comportement du certains personnel
- Keith (8/5): -
- Sabrina (9/5): - Super proche du centre ville et de ses attractions.
- Emilie (9/5): Confortable et bien placé - L’emplacement, l’accueil, le charme du lieu, confort, propreté
- Chloé (9/5): -
- Gañan Cabezas (8/5): Típico bed and breakfast cerca del centro con aparcamiento. - Colchón cómodo y baño limpio. Típico bed and breakfast cerca del centro con aparcamiento. Escaleras empinadas y no incluir desayuno.
- Kerstin (5/5): Zimmer okay, Personal extrem unfreundlich - Das Familienzimmer war geräumig. Der Bus ins Stadtzentrum fährt vor der Tür. Der extrem unfreundliche Besitzer oder Mitarbeiter, der uns auf dem Parkplatz direkt mit einem Maßband in Empfang genommen hat, da unser Auto zu lang war. Keine freundliche Nachfrage, ob wir erstmal ausladen wollen, kein Angebot der Hilfe als ich alleine mit meinen Kindern das Gepäck in den dritten Stock geschleppt habe, weil man Mann das Auto zum Park and ride Parkplatz fahren musste.
Wer ein leichter Schläfer ist, wird direkt an der Hauptstraße nicht viel Ruhe finden.
- Patrick (9/5): - La propreté, le calme et la gentillesse du personnel.
- Dragan (9/5): Exelent - Everything was very good. We recommende

- David (8/5): Good check in and easy to walk into town - Very clean and great location. Although limited, if you get there early, parking is a real bonus. Nothing
- Wolfgang (10/5): Preis Leistung sehr gut wir würden es immer weiterempfehlen. - Sehr sehr sauber und gemütliche Betten. Sauberes Bad und viel Stauraum. Sehr freundliches Personal. War alles super.
- Ellen Flanagan (8/5): Excellent location - Excellent location, within walking distance of the city centre and very easy to find. The room was cleaned on a daily basis, the bed was a little small but the shower was excellent It would have been nice if breakfast was included in the cost
- Tiziana (8/5): - Ottima posizione per spostarsi senza dover usare i mezzi pubblici perché si trova a 15 minuti a piedi dal centro. La stanza era abbastanza spaziosa e pulita. Staff molto gentile e disponibile
- Seguin (9/5): Lovely, comfortable spot a short walk from river and downtown. - Great location and quite comfortable. Lots of stairs, but we knew that was the case. The good thing is being high up off the street, it’s much quieter.
Lovely continental breakfast for a small fee. Electric tea kettle didn’t work.
- Mairi (10/5): - Cosy and comfortable Nothing really
- Sarah (9/5): Great location & good value - Immaculately clean. Well furnished. So close to centre. Great location.
Everything you need is in the room.
Would stay again Mattresses a little lumpy (coil sprung) but still slept like a log! Maybe just a mattress topper needed.
- Isabelle (4/5): a little dirty, but otherwise nice premises - nice bathroom, very friendly staff sheets had brown marks on them, the fireplace didn’t turn on for more than a few seconds at a time so it was quite cold
