Top Carfax Tower Hotel Reviews

George Street Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Receptionists are very friendly and helpful. The location is perfect, within walking distance of the bus and train station and tourist attractions."

Ethos Hotel – Oxford City

10/10 Excellent

"This is a little gem in Oxford. The hotel actually consists of 4 buildings according to the staff and our stay was just around the corner. The first morning the cold water was not working in one of our two rooms, but it was quickly fixed. It is a Victorian house, so no elevator but excellent character. Ours also came with a living room space, so lots of room and the beds were sooo comfy."

The Bocardo Hotel

8/10 Good

"Clean and comfortable hotel in the centre of Oxford. Rooms at the back are quiet. The hotel does send a lot of messages before and during the stay which, while intended to be helpful, are a bit much - you can simply check in when you arrive. I’d stay again."

Vanbrugh House Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Loved the stay!"

Premier Inn Oxford City Centre - Westgate

10/10 Excellent

"The room was very clean. The staff were welcoming, helpful, accommodating, and friendly. Perfect location and convenient."

Tower House

8/10 Good
