Reviews of Oxford Hotels »

No mum it's not a petrol station, it's the Holiday Inn Oxford.

Advantages: Great Price. Good location for roads. Next to park and ride, cheaper than paying for parking!
Disadvantages: Another Holiday Inn, nothing that unique about it. Surly reception staff.

...so we found ourselves at Holiday Inn Oxford. Booking I booked the hotel at www.holidayinn.co.uk as part of their summer promotion. The rate was half price at £49 a night including breakfast which for Oxford in the heart of summer was cheap. The credit crunch certainly has provided us with LOTS of bargains! Once booked I received an e-mail confirmation and all was completed. Arrival The hotel is based outside oxford just off the A34. It is ...
...contemporary style and were typical Holiday Inn carbon copy hotel rooms. Everyone a replica of the other. The room was fitted with the following, *A double bed with average linen. There was a pillow selection menu allowing you to order your favourite pillow from reception. The bed on the whole was comfortable but the mattress was a bit hard. *32” LCD TV with full selection of satellite channels and on-demand movies. *Wired broadband connection @ ...

Review of Holiday Inn, Oxford

The Barcelo quite a nice hotelo :)

Advantages: Friendly staff, near bus stop, excellent food, comfy beds
Disadvantages: Long walk to some rooms, price of food if no included

My partner and I stayed here from 16th - 19th april 2009 as we needed somewhere in oxford that wasn't too expensive and we got a great deal as it was Easter time. It cost us £159 for the three nights and this included our breakfast each morning and also a free dinner on the first night. I was a bit worried when we got there that is was a bit far out from the city centre, but thankfully it was just our sat nav being tedious and sending us on the ...
...few minutes drive into the town centre. I will advise though that Oxford is not a very car friendly town, there is hardly anywhere to park and of the small places available it can be quite expensive as most people here use bicycles. I do have to say though Oxford has an excellent bus service and buses run every 15 minutes into town and back and from the stop at the hotel (just across the road) it costs only £3 return per person which is great considering ...

Review of Barceló Oxford Hotel, Oxford

PREMIER TRAVEL INN - OXFORD CENTRAL

Advantages: close to the city
Disadvantages: close to the traffic

This particular Premier Travel Inn is situated on the Oxford Business Park. It is just off the A4142 on the junction with the B480 and it is opposite the Rover Works, 3 miles from Oxford city centre. My husband originates from Wallingford near Oxford so we travel up that way occasionally to see old friends and family. We were finding it more and more difficult to find a reasonable B&B for the night. Most of them in that area are £60 upwards for a ...
...free. FACILITIES +++++++++ Premier Travel Inn has a standard of facilities. All rooms include an ensuite bathroom with a shower, tea/coffee making facilities and a tv. This particular Travel Inn is classed as a "Metro" which means that you get upgraded facilities, such as satellite television, hairdryer, computer modem point. Apparantly "WiFi" wireless network facilities are available although we did not take our computer with us, so could not ...

Review of Premier Travel Inn, Oxford

The Grange B&B in Long Wittenham

Advantages: pet friendly B&B, good location
Disadvantages: none

..., so you have all the privacy you need. The room seemed to be the childrens room, now turned into a guest room, so you find quite some memorabilia, which gives the B&B its familiar touch. Still there is enough space to spread your bags and belongings. Full English Breakfast is served downstairs in the dining area and is made to order. It is easy to spend a long weekend in the area with all the pretty sights, and River Thames so close invites you ...

Old Macdonald had a 5-star Hotel - eee ai eee ai oh

Advantages: It's spectacular and surprisingly quiet and the best location in the city
Disadvantages: Parking, high prices.

As a student at Oxford University in the late 1980s, the Randolph seemed like the physical embodiment of the class divide that afflicted poor kids like me who came from state schools from the much wealthier students who took the affluence and grandeur of the city's finest hotel entirely in their stride. I'd never been in such a grand hotel and the closest thing to a grand building in my home city was the local branch of Lloyds Bank. My flat mates' ...
...the Randolph for rather staid Sunday lunches in the spectacular high ceilinged dining room where we'd sit and watch the world cycle by through the tall windows. By contrast my parents would visit bringing a bag full of fish and chips or a Chinese take-away. I can't really say that we enjoyed the Randolph that much more than a take-away and at least nobody had to stand on ceremony with my folks. It seems strange from the 2009 perspective that in ...
