This is a hotel converted from an old castle prison. It is very innovative. There are two types of rooms. One is a room converted from two cells, and the other is a normal room. The window of the room converted from the cell is a small upper window like in the prison. The normal room I booked has a balcony. It depends on everyone's preference. The room has a coffee machine and a towel heating rod. The shower room is small and the button area is large, but it takes some skills to press it. The first time I pressed it for a long time, it didn't trigger. The air conditioning in my room was slightly insufficient, but the hotel service staff actively solved the problem. The overall service was very warm and thoughtful, sharing town maps and so on, so despite the slight inconvenience, I still like the style and service of this hotel. The breakfast is also good, and the black pudding is awesome. In addition, some rooms have stairs in addition to the elevator. If you have large luggage, you can try to contact the hotel to use the small elevator, as shown in the last picture
Nice hotel. Staff are cordial but the amenities need to be reviewed and made up to date. No landline to ring the reception for any service needed, had to go all the way downstairs to the reception to make a complaint on a toilet that’s refused to flush. Shower not working, couldn’t flush the toilet until I applied much pressure on the flush handle. Would’ve been great if the amenities are up to date (for the lack of a better word).
We stayed here twice for our trip oxford > london > Oxford. First booking was a double room and second was twin room. Those who looking to stay alone or travel in couple, highly recommend to go for twin room as the twin room is definitely more spacious than the double room. Nonetheless, you still won’t have enough space to open your luggages on the floor. Cleanliness was good, they lent you hair dryer but the toilet amenities is lacking. Location is convenient as there’s bus to take u to city center at 2 pound each way or you could walk for 40 mins to the city too. Affordable and ok stay but I’d prefer to stay in city center the next time.
Very Good

The Leonardo Royal Hotel Oxford is a stylish hotel located on the outskirts of Oxford, offering a blend of comfort and convenience. Lucky to have some light decorations to the rooms due to availability. The room is spacious which come equipped with comfortable bed, air conditioning, tea and coffee facilities. Slight pointer is that there is no heat warmer or heater in the room.
The hotel features an on-site restaurant and bar, where visitors can enjoy a variety of meals, including a well-regarded breakfast. For relaxation, the property offers excellent leisure facilities, such as an indoor swimming pool, fitness center, sauna, and steam room but you need to make prior appointment before usage. These amenities are especially appreciated by those looking to unwind after exploring the historic city of Oxford.
Situated near major road networks, the hotel is ideal for travelers arriving by car, with on-site parking available. However, some guests note that parking might come with an additional charge but come at fixed $6 per day. Should you require breakfast is best to purchase it on the day you checked it as it will cost $15 instead of $18.
Overall, the Leonardo Royal Hotel Oxford is a dependable and comfortable choice, offering a modern retreat just a short distance from the vibrant cultural and academic attractions of Oxford.
The look of this hotel looks very low-key! Even very inconspicuous, I arrived at night. After passing through the cemetery, I felt a little cautious in my heart, but I completely forgot when I entered the door. The hotel reception was small, with the restaurant, the atmosphere was very good, there was a small fireplace and bar, the hotel The waiter was also very enthusiastic. There was a Chinese lady who was very nice. The room was relatively large. The first night was a high-class room. It was quite big. The next day, the standard room was OK. The mattress was very comfortable. ! Hot water is also great! awesome
I played in Oxford for two days, because it was three people, so the choice was not so much, so I decided to make it. The room was clean and tidy, but the faucet was leaking, and the chandelier inside was also bad. There was a door in the room that could not be closed. But in general, the price is reasonable, the location is convenient, two minutes walk to the city center, the train station is less than ten minutes, but the hotel entrance is very small, on the street, you must carefully look at the signs posted at the door to find, service staff Is a little brother, very good attitude, but also help with luggage. If you are pursuing a good environment, it is not recommended, but if you travel short distances and many people, it is okay.
It’s a little way out of the centre but there are buses passing by every couple of minutes. It’s comfortable well appointed the walls are a little thin but it’s ok. You also have to go up a flight of stairs.
The hotel is newly renovated, the room is very clean, it is very close to the COACH station in London, there is a road for 2 minutes, there are various restaurants nearby, it is very convenient! ! !
The room is OK, there is a sign telling us that the toilet paper is better at the front desk! Sanitation cleaning is a bit fooled! Other equipment is complete!
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.

Excellent
PPHYO PHYO WAI YANG YINGWe absolutely enjoyed our 3 days 2 nights stay at the graduate hotel at Oxford. We booked 2 King room bedrooms for me&my husband & my son for 2 nights. I am a little worry about 24m2 size of the bedroom might be too small for us but upon arrival and check-in, the room is just nice, very cozy and warm and very Brtish atmosphere. The arrival hall is really pleasant, they have a small cozy bar for good whisky cider and some snacks. My husband & I enjoyed our drinks at the bar, we tried their British draught cider. For the breakfast, they reserve at very beautifully designed Alica restaurant just next to the reception. Very decent English buffet. Not too crowded and very enjoyable morning breakfast.
The bed, pillow blankets are super comfortable and we had uninterrupted sleep throughout the night. The room temperature is just nice we set at 19-22 degrees.
The bathroom is not spacious but just nice for 1 person. However the bathroom floor is alittle cold as the hotel did not provide slipper. The amenities are decent shampoo/bath gel/conditioner big bottle sizes with small soap though we prefer hand gel and hand lotion as it is cold weather.
The room has a spacious corner for closet and luggage, that is very good for my husband and I.
However there's only 1 chair for reading and the light/lamp are a little dim maybe we can call it cozy [ Brtish style ].

100% Happy & Satisfied with the stay
NNeilK37I had an amazing experience at the Holiday Inn Pear Tree Oxford, staff were very friendly, helpful and open to chat, in particular the manager who gave mr some good recommendations on pubs to eat in Oxford, lady who checked me in and gentleman working on check out who i had a nice chat with and knows of town where i'm from.
Facilities are excellent and luxurious, with bar area, dining area and lobby very clean and relaxing.
My room was very stylish, clean with large screen TV, air conditioning and own kettle with sachets of tea and coffee, bathroom was very clean too.
I highly recommend anyone to stay here if in the Oxford area and want a quiet relaxing stay with excellent customer service.
GGuest Uservery nice boutique hotel with a good bar and restaurant below. The room nice, clean, minimalist but good furniture and decent shower. Only one complaint - if you are not a fan of capsule coffee (and I am definitely not) and you just want a cup of tea, it's a pain to have to google the coffee machine to work out how to use it when just a simple kettle would have been fine. Just 4 for the location because of the chaos at the Botley road bridge which is going on till this time next year at least! Lovely breakfast menu with good service.
EEsther77QiIt was the second day of opening when I stayed there. The facilities were quite complete. Although the breakfast menu was the same every day, the taste was good. The reception service was also very good.
AAnonymous UserIt is near Oxford University, and the library is only a 10-minute walk away. The hotel room is small, the bathroom is also small, and the hotel signal is not good. Considering the parking problem in Oxford, I chose a hotel with a parking lot and paid 10 pounds for parking. However, there was no parking space after paying the fee. I was not allowed to park until 8 o'clock in the morning. All passengers were informed that they must leave before 11 o'clock in the morning. In fact, you can park on the roadside from 6:30 pm to 8 am, plus you can park for free for 3 hours during the day, which is almost enough. The hotel charges are very unreasonable!
AAliThis is a good hotel in central part of the city. We didn't use any of the facilities due to our short stay at the hotel.
It looks quite decent and room was nice and cozy. Service was ok, but could be better if you get a proper greeting or a sort of welcoming that is expected at this level of hotels.
Location is close to bus station and railway station, which is convenient if you are in/out of Oxford for a short stay.
CcheneddieThe location is very convenient. There is a bus stop about 100 meters away. You can take the bus to the center of Oxford in about 15 minutes. It takes 12 minutes to walk to the summer town center, where there are supermarkets and various restaurants. The hotel's breakfast is quite satisfactory and is served at 9:30. I stayed in the attic room, which requires climbing two flights of stairs. Guests with large suitcases should pay attention.
Overall, it is a good stay experience.
GGuest UserWe stayed just one night to meet family members for dinner in Oxford.
It is very well located for the city cetre. Despite that, it is in a quiet location and we had a good night's rest in a small but comfortable room.
It lacks the range of facilites that you may want for a long stay. For example, it has no lounge, restaurant or lifts, which is the only reason I could not give 5 /5 for facilites. What facitlities is does have are good: in room tea and coffee making, television, radio and WiFi. Staff are friendly and helpful.
We came by car and used the Park and Ride system, which is excellent. Oxford bus services are good. The hotel is also only a short taxi ride from the station if you go by train.
The hotel was ideal for a short stay and we will use it again.
GGuest UserThe Location of the hotel is perfect for sight seeing and exploring Oxford you can easily get to most of the main attractions in less then a 5 mins walk. We stayed for 2 nights and only opted for the breakfast once personally I wouldn’t bother it was bad. Head to the covered market instead
GGuest UserThe facilities are old, but fortunately the room is big enough. The breakfast is not very rich, but it is made now, which is very good.
The location is also close to Oxford, come out and take the bus directly on the main road.
