Very friendly staff, I booked quickly after arriving at a dirty hotel ten minutes away. Staff were very helpful and made sure I was looked after. I was upgraded to a better room
We had an excellent stay. Grigori (sorry if I have your name wrong!) was lovely when we checked in and gave 5 star service. Our room was huge and spotless, and extremely comfortable. Breakfast was well worth the cost and was very nice. Rooms have aircon and blackout curtains for excellent sleeping conditions. Don’t bother prebooking parking, there’s plenty of signs and a kiosk to pay inside. It’s £8 a day and you can come and go as you please. You can walk to the park and ride to get the bus into Oxford, it cost £9 for 2 people return. We will definitely return to stay at the Holiday Inn Oxford next time we come down here.
Lovely hotel, clean and very well presented. Good dining area, and food was excellent. Staff were very helpful, immediately changed us to a different room when we had a problem with the toilet. Ideal for getting into Oxford on Park and Ride. Highly recommend.
Excellent hotel all round. Having travelled from the Manchester area, the fact that this was 15 mins north of Oxford made it a perfect location. We used the Park and Ride facility which was only a 2 min walk away. Buses arrived every 10-15 mins and were really cheap too.
Can't praise the staff highly enough. Want to shout out particularly to Lily, what an absolute credit to this hotel.
Fabulous breakfast with a great choice.
Overall, will recommend this hotel to anyone looking to stay in this neck of the woods. P.s. perfect also for visiting The Cotswolds.
This hotel is very convenient to Oxford centre by car or taxi. Hotel is very comfortable with excellent service from staff in all areas of the hotel. Breakfast is lovely too. Charged parking is available at the hotel. Would stay again.
We arrived to check in and we were greeted by Georgi who was lovely, very helpful and even upgraded our room. All staff were exceptional and will definitely be staying here again when coming to visit Oxford!
This hotel is great and the staff go above and beyond to help and care for you during your stay. It’s ’no frills’ but perfect for a weekend stay or business trip. Ask to go into the newer rooms for a better room and nicer bed etc.
My friend and I had a brief stay in Oxford. The hotel was absolutely fine; we had no criticisms at all. The breakfast choice was extensive with the staff being super helpful and polite. We'd definitely stay there again.
The hotel is someway out of the centre of Oxford, which makes a stay very affordable, compared to inner city accommodation. The Peartree Park and ride makes travel into the city very easy, and it runs every few minutes. If buses aren't your thing, Ubers are plentiful and cheap out of peak times.Staff at the hotel were very helpful, friendly and professional , the food at the restaurant was good with plenty of choices.
Highly recommend A+

Perfect hotel for a trip to Oxford, is a taxi ride in to the middle of Oxford but worth it. Great price Hotel and friendly staff.
The hotel was clean and staff were friendly and helpful. Despite being next to the A34 my room was quiet. The location was actually good and only a 5 minute walk via the service station car park to the bus stop at the park and ride.
