We stayed overnight at St Margaret's Hotel. The staff were very helpful and friendly. We had the family room. It was very spacious and clean. The beds were very comfortable. For breakfast we a good mix of cereals, toast and English breakfast. You have parking for 5 cars, but you can park on the street with a permit. The hotel is just 3 bus stops away from Oxford city centre and is very convenient. You could even walk in. Overall, we would return here if visiting Oxford again.

This room was HUGE and the beds were super comfy. The bathroom could have been a little cleaner but overall a great place. The wall onto the center of Oxford took about 20 minutes but was flat and east. There is also a conveniently located bus stop. Breakfast was not “bed and breakfast” quality but it was fine.
Response from Rikin on 24 Nov 2023
Thank you ever so much for your splendid review! Delighted to know that you enjoyed the spacious room and the comfy beds. We do apologise for the slight inconveniece with the bathroom cleanliness and we will check what happened. We are dedicated to enhancing the guest experience by continually refining our services and offerings which includes our breakfast as well which will be particularly reviewed shortly in the upcoming management meeting.Indeed, we are conveniently located near the bus stop and we are glad you found it convenient for traveling to and from the city center.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Liked: It's a beautiful old house in a lovely/posh road in North Oxford with parking so very convenient. The bed was comfortable and the staff were friendly. Disliked: shower wouldn't stay in the holder so had to hold it myself and the bathroom floor tiles and shower curtain were really grotty with hairs on the bathroom floor. The breakfast was ok but the coffee machine seemed to produce cold coffee and the staff were not replenishing supplies (I noticed that guests arriving in for breakfast later than me did not have access to croissants or orange juice as both had gone by the time they arrived). Shame as the building and stained glass windows are beautiful.

Dear Amanda,Thank you for your review and useful feedback. We are pleased you like the location and found our free parking convenient. We apologise that you struggled with the shower. We are rectifying the fitting so you will not have to hold the shower. The unacceptable mess on the bathroom floor has been investigated and appropriate actions with all the housekeeping staff have been taken to ensure this type of issue does not arise in the future. Your comments about breakfast have been noted. We are always looking to improve our offerings and level of service. Sometimes it is hard to judge the quantities needed and we do not supply sufficient at the right time. We are looking at ways of ensuring that we maintain levels of food so that everyone can enjoy the food we provide. I am sorry that your coffee was cold. In addition to looking into this, we will adjust the menu displays so that all the cold coffees are on one menu and all the hot coffees are on another.I am pleased you had a good night's sleep on our comfortable bed and you found all the staff friendly. We do our best to help our guests at all times.Best Regards,St Margaret's hotel

Pleasant stay
Easy check in and was shown to our room and given the key to return later as we were a bit early. Bedroom was comfortable and had different options of hot drinks and biscuits. Unfortunately there was mould in the shower and bottom of the toilet bowl was stained. Breakfast was quite basic, so we ate out one morning and the dining room was a bit small so you had to squeeze between tables if it was full. A good spot to explore the city and took us 15-20 mins to walk in. Great to have parking on site. Would be an even better hotel if the cleaning was sorted out in the bathroom and options for different cooked breakfasts were provided.
