Top Carfax Tower Hotel Reviews

Malmaison Oxford

10/10 Excellent

"We received a very friendly welcome on arrival after a hectic car journey through Oxford!"

Vanbrugh House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We had such a wonderful visit. The room was gorgeous and so comfortable. Lovely details and room amenities made us feel very spoiled. Beautifully renovated historic property. The location is right in the middle of Oxford and walking distance to everything. Fernando the manager was so great and made sure out stay was memorable. Highly recommend!"

Westgate Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Very nice very clean good location"

voco Oxford Spires by IHG

10/10 Excellent

"Regular annual visitors to this hotel so knew what to expect. Room was large and clean. Staff we came across were all very pleasant and helpful. Breakfast room was very well stocked there was a really wide choice from the buffet. River walk of about 15 mins into the city. Very quiet at night on this occasion. Onsite car parking is £25 per day. Check in agent did not ask for payment and when i asked i was told it was included which surprised me as it never used to be. I went back later and challenged them on this again and surprise another check showed it wasn't so an apology was given and £50 was taken. Failure to pay would mean a £100 fine later on so beware of this. Couldn't get a stable picture on any tv channel which was a little frustrating but then we weren't there to watch tv."

Ethos Hotel – Oxford City

10/10 Excellent

"Great stay. Parking was a bit of a walk away"

Henry's

10/10 Excellent

"Location !!"

Premier Inn Oxford City Centre - Westgate

10/10 Excellent

"Good location, clean rooms and comfy bed. Nice to have aircon in the best of summer. Rooms are very quiet and the blockout blinds are welcome. Good shower too."

George Oxford Hotel

8/10 Good

"It was perfectly adequate for our 2 nights in Oxford. Convenient location, but no AC and the entryway needs work... smells not so nice and old mattress in there. Very nice people, let us leave our luggage until we checked in. Mattresses need replacing, could feel the springs, but again, perfectly adequate."
