Oxford Hotels with Bars

This hotel is super close to Oxford Station, just right next door. From the pictures, I thought it might be a bit old-fashioned, but it seems to have been renovated. The room was relatively spacious and quiet, clean with no strange odors. There are only two floors and it's all stairs, but the staff were very helpful and carried our large luggage upstairs. We were able to store our luggage before check-in, and the front desk even provided a small map with suggested sightseeing routes, which was much appreciated. There's a small supermarket right next door downstairs, which was convenient for picking up supplies. It's also just a 10-minute walk to High Street and plenty of dining and shopping options. Oxford itself is quite small, so getting around is very easy from here.

The hotel's garden is beautiful, and it's lovely to sit at the bar, enjoying a drink or a meal while looking out at it. Breakfast was decent; although the selection wasn't huge, the food tasted good and the presentation was quite refined. The only drawback is that the room was a bit small, but that's pretty normal for the UK. Overall, it's a good place, and the garden is definitely a highlight. It's about a ten-minute drive to Oxford city center.

We were attending a wedding in Oxford and the city centre hotels were very expensive. The reviews for the Black Boy were good so we booked.  It was a joy to stay here and we had a fabulous weekend..  Great location - about 10 mins in taxi from centre and bus stop about 5 mins or so walk.  Buses went to the city centre and railway station.  The room was lovely, as were the welcoming staff.  Breakfasts were very good and the pub had a nice atmosphere and an outside garden area.  Would recommend to anyone wanting to stay in Oxford.

The hotel is located at the city centre, just 3-5 minute walk from Westgate: can't be better: 5 stars The room is clean and daily house keeping did a good job: 5 stars Facilities are not perfect but understandable in limited space in an expensive city: 4 stars Service: Staff in general is professional and up to Courtyard standard ... EXCEPT the night shift assistant manager who made the check-in experience terrible!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I wouldn’t call the night shift assistant manager’s attitude merely disappointing — it was astonishing. We arrived to check in around midnight, and it seemed we might have disturbed his sleep. He reacted with rudeness, even slamming the desk as he handed me the check‑in sheet, and curtly instructed me to sign it. It was already late at night, and after a long day of traveling I chose not to voice my disappointment at that time. However, I did not encounter him again in the following days during my stay. Indeed I sent a couple of messages through the booking agent to the hotel informing my late arrival, but none of them got a reply. Is it a normal practice (no response) of Courtyard?

The service was decent, with daily cleaning. Breakfast was okay, nothing special. The hotel's downtown location is very convenient for walking around. I imagine the experience would be better if it weren't summer. I was on the third floor, and there's no elevator, but carrying luggage wasn't too difficult, and you can always ask staff for help. The biggest issue was the summer heat. The room got a lot of direct afternoon sun every day, and even though the hotel provided a fan during the European heatwave, it was still hard to sleep. Good to know that the double rooms in the new building have air conditioning.

We loved staying at the Mad hatter. The location is only 10-15 mins from the city centre, staff was ever so helpful, and the room is very atmospheric, it felt incredibly lush without being over the top and tacky. The room was very clean and felt brand new. Only downside is the karaoke bar downstairs, but they kindly provide earplugs and anyway it stops early. We would definitely book it again.

The talkhouse was a really homely accommodation right outside of Oxford. The room was exactly like the pictures. The staff were incredibly helpful and I must say the showers is probably one of the best I’ve had in the uk. (Proper water pressure,temperature and drainage so I’m not swimming in my own filth). Also have a drink or dinner at the pub, it’s seems to be a popular favourite amongst the locals as well. One thing to note for light sleepers, the rooms are side by side so you might hear your neighbours & it is right by the road so you’ll be able to hear vehicles at busier times.

Why give full marks, first we arrived, there are staff enthusiastically help us with luggage, we live on the 3rd floor, the room is large up and down, the front desk staff is very warm to help us park, breakfast is free and paid, pay attention, If you don’t choose breakfast on the order, don’t be afraid. He also has breakfast for everyone. It is bread ham cheese milk coffee tea juice. This is free. The location is very convenient. It takes 8 minutes to walk to Christ College, which is the Harry Potter Magic Canteen. Go to the Ashmolean Museum within 15 minutes. Super convenient! The picture is a two-point paid breakfast, 13 yuan.

Superb location right in the centre of Oxford. Good for those travelling without car. If travelling with car, you would need to park in Westgate or Worcester street car park. Only opened in 2024, so the facilities are new and clean. Modern chic style. Spa is small, but has steam, sauna and experience shower. The only thing was whenever we asked for something, it took us 2-3 attempts to finally get things delivered.

I was in the Red Room which had the most fabulous view over Jesus College. The set up worked really well. The bathroom was a bit mouldy in some areas and the arrival instructions were confusing. Worth all that to get the view and location.
