Reviews of Oxford Hotels »
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

Further out than you'd think
Advantages: Good if you get a bargain, complimentary breakfast, clean
Disadvantages: Outskirts of Oxford, not a great area
...came across the Holiday Inn Express on the outskirts of Oxford. Not only was it near enough to the city centre to get a taxi to, but it also wasn’t that expensive and it was a chain that I’d stayed in before, so I knew roughly what to expect. To add to the bargain we discovered that Holiday Inn Express hotels were included in the list of offers we could get with our Walkers crisps Great Trips points! Yep, the very same points that bought us our visit ...
...a bit. The Holiday Express is really near the Oxford’s Kassam stadium. If you get lost then head for this and you’ll find the hotel right next to it. The hotel had loads of parking when we turned up, but I think it would definitely be worth checking to see if a match was on and time your arrival accordingly! As the hotel is on the outskirts of Oxford, parking is free which is deal. We found a space really near the entrance and headed in with our ...

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 @ ...

Martin Stanton
Advantages: Location, reasonable breakfast, helpful staff
Disadvantages: not as good as the hype, tired, needs a good clean & decoration
I made a booking for a couple of nights and fouled up the arrival date, they called me around the time I had said we would arrive and they were very good about it and when we did arrive (a day later) they didn't try to charge me for an extra day, (which they could have done as the foul up was my fault). That aside, don't be fooled by the website that shows the rooms as being modern and trendy, the room we had was basic, poorly decorated with a power ...
...furniture, but overall this is not worth £80 a night. The whole place needs re decorating and a thorough clean ........ suspect the website was created by the previous owners just after the re furnishing had been done ...... it needs doing again ...... noisy rooms at the front too ...... convenient for finding and getting into & out of Oxford, but overall quite dissapointing ..........avoid. ...

lock me up and throw away the key
Advantages: the jail theme, Brilliant rooms.
Disadvantages: none
Why did I go - As an oxfordshire resident I have heard nothing but excellent reviews of the recently refurbished jail that is now the Malmasion Hotel so I decided to treat myself and my partner to an overnight stay. The hotel was recently voted one of the quirkest hotels in the world only just behind the Ice Hotel!
This is the kind of Hotel that you can take your partner to for a special occasion and make the evening special.
The hotel - After ...
...hotel stand's out with its old exterior to the building. When you enter reception you can instantly tell that you are in a classy place
The hotel was magnificant. After checking into reception, with the friendly staff only to happy to help, we arrived in the main wing of the former prision. Although the hotel is impressivley renovated, it still retains the feel of an old prision. we then excitedly made our way into the room. This had a extra comfty ...
