Hotels near Carfax Tower

"Convenient and quiet. Understaffed and the staff is inattentive. We almost missed our train because it took 20 minutes to pick up our suitcases."

"Clean but basic room,a bit pricy for its location. Quiet area, walkable"

"Excellent service, helpful staff, comfortable bed, close to everything in Central Oxford. You can walk to the train station with a roller in ten minutes. All of these things at a great price! Bravo!"

"Spacious room and clean bathroom. A little bit noisy because the room was located in front of the main street. But overall the stay was very comfortable. I am glad that I chose this hotel!"

"You stay here for the location, which is ideal for walking to much of what Oxford offers. The building is old enough to be historic, something to keep in mind when choosing. Lots of atmosphere, small room with floor that slopes. The bed was very comfortable and the linens nice. I liked having the Nespresso machine in the room for coffee to go with my morning TV news. Bathroom nicely updated. I did object to the worn-out carpet and extremely dirty windows. For that I requested, and got, a reduction in the breakfast charge. Staff pleasant and helpful. Agreed about the carpet and said windows cannot be cleaned because of access constraints. Breakfast room pleasant and a good place to chat with fellow travelers. "

"Coffee maker wasn’t working, staff said they would fix it but didn’t"

"2nd time I’ve stayed here. Asked them to preserve me breakfast and the staff said they would as I was working lates. I even paid for the breakfast. On both occasions the day staff denied I ever had that conversation with the night shift. Really poor communication and very little compassion. Left feeling scammed out of quite a bit of money."

"The staff were so friendly, so helpful--ordering us a taxi, explaining about the Oxford Bus to Heathrow, etc. The concept of turning a prison into a hotel--wow! Our room was fabulous. The whole setting and what has been done with this enormous golden stone building is so imaginative and fun. Great location for walking/shopping in Oxford. Close to everything."

"Not a 5 star hotel by any stretch but very convenient location great staff and clean rooms made for a pleasant stay."
