Mercure Oxford Eastgate Hotel

Mercure Oxford Eastgate Hotel

10/10 Excellent
"Fabulous stay and we knew the hotel is an old building with restricted accessibility due to split levels, however we stayed in the new area adjacent to the rear carpark with my son who is a wheelchair user. Room absolutely gorgeous with adjacent wetroom which was perfect. We went to the front of the hotel to access a separate door to the breakfast room and warmly greeted by the staff with a portable ramp. Definitely will return as so central and hotel perfect for our needs."

10/10 Excellent
"By far, the best thing about our stay is how helpful the staff were. Even though sometimes no one is at the front desk, they are quite responsive. My husband and I had a big health scare while we were visiting. They took the time to help us with establishing a UK phone number, troubleshooting, getting to our care facilities, and even took the time to secure a room for us should we have needed an extra night. They were amazing!"
