We would stay there again if we return to Oxford shopping. ##### Philip Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2021 ### 6/10 Okay #### michael 31 Jul 2021 Liked: Cleanliness Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Disappointed Room lacked finishing touches Have stayed in much better rooms for less money .Overall disappointed ##### michael Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2021 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 1 Jun 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Room comfort #### Nice but way to noisy The hotel is really well placed, with free parking on site. The room (n°5) on the second floor was spacious, cute and clean. But, the noise during the night was unbearable, we could not sleep for the 2 nights we stayed in. So if you come to Oxford to party that's perfect, but if you want to visit and sleep at night, avoid it. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in May 2021 ### 8/10 Good #### Therese 3 Mar 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Basic and clean, quite noicy. Its located on walking distance from the city center. The building is old but the room we got was renovated, clean and spacious. Nice personel. It is very noicy though both from the bar downstairs and from the street but if that doesn’t bother you It’s ok. ##### Therese Stayed 3 nights in Feb 2020 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 13 Jan 2020 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Disliked: Room comfort #### Terrible mattress The bed was incredibly uncomfortable, I could feel the metal from the mattress protruding through and only managed to sleep when I slept on half my duvet and wrapped myself in the other half. If there had been two of us this would have been difficult. Never come across such a bad mattress. But the staff were kind and the room was clean. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jan 2020 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 10 Jan 2020 Disliked: Staff & service, room comfort Location was superb. Parking facilities great. Large flat screen TV which was good. Main grouse was the hot shower. Miserable trickle. Takes a good 30 mins to wash my hair. Temp fluctuates between cold as ice and boiling hot with very little in between. It’s a pub so nothing much of customer service to speak of ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Jan 2020 ### 6/10 Okay #### Thomas 31 Dec 2019 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort It was very basic, the toilet was full of brown water and the bathroom smelt of sewage initially until we run the tap for a few minutes. The room was basic, the initial welcome/greeting was poor but the breakfast and breakfast staff were excellent. Ideal location for Oxford. ##### Thomas Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2019 ### 4/10 Poor #### feng 3 Oct 2019 #### too expensive for its quality luckily we only need to stay one night here: very small room and low roof; very noisy till the late night (room is on the high traffic street); shower with very low pressure and flow rate, no hot water; breakfast just passable. In total, too expensive for its quality. ##### feng Stayed 1 night in Oct 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 27 Sept 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Comfortable clean room. In room 5 on front. Sleep disturbed from shouting from people passing by and constant traffic. Excellent breakfast ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Sep 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 14 Aug 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Our stay in Oxford The location was excellent being a short walk into Oxford, with a choice of amazing restaurants around the corner on Cowley Road. The traffic noise at night was very loud but we expected that. The room had been recently refurbished and was clean and comfortable. The dining room was gloomy and the breakfast was passable. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 15 Jul 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Perfecte locatie, op wandelafstand van het centrum van Oxford. Propere kamers met alle voorzieningen alleen soms een beetje moeilijk om er door de smalle gangetjes met lage plafonds te geraken. Ontbijt echter erg summier en zeker in de voormiddag weinig tot geen personeel te bespeuren. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Charles 4 Jun 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### No longer a traditional pub Good price and location. Sad bit is they redid pub and lost all world look. No real ales. I’ve stayed before and miss the pub. Two good pubs near by. Great full English breakfast but only available for 1 hr 7:30-8:30 ##### Charles Stayed 3 nights in May 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Tracey 1 Jun 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Quirky but great place to stay in Oxford. Great location with parking, breakfasts were really good. Room was quirky but comfortable and as its an 18th century coaching inn to be expected. One niggle water pressure was not great for shower. ##### Tracey Stayed 2 nights in May 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### ZAAB 3 May 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Location is great, and the almost ancient feel of this old carriage house is just neat. ##### ZAAB Stayed 4 nights in Apr 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Jane 14 Apr 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Super convenient for taking buses to and from London’s airports!

It is an old building with the ground floor being an old and also refurbished pub. Th bathroom in room 4 was new, but the plumbing looked a little circumspect. The shower was either boiling hot or freezing cold. The new thermostat was suspect. That apart the room which contained a king size and single beds was nicely decorated and furnished. The hotel is inexpensive, and I would stay there again. My wife would not. ##### Iain Stayed 1 night in Feb 2019 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 18 Jan 2019 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities A building site, no staff. This is a poor hotel for £100 ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 26 Dec 2018 #### The Old Black Horse is getting a young facelift Although the renovation work is being undertaken at this moment in time we were not disturbed by it. A hearty welcome greeted us, and our room (already renovated) was perfect for the three nights of our stay. Although facing the busy main road we were relatively undisturbed by traffic and pedestrian late night chit chat; although over the busy main bar we heard nothing from below at all. The breakfast was more than adequate, with polite and quick service, and fairly decent food. The main reason for our choosing The Old Black Horse was its proximity to the Oxford town centre, and the provision of parking. Both were big pluses towards our stay. We also like the more quirky Cowley Road which we have visited in the past; again it was just around the corner...literally. To summarise: good location, pleasant staff, refurbished room. Thank you to all concerned. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2018 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller 13 Dec 2018 Liked: Staff & service Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Run down.

The shower head kept falling off the wall, and the carpet was old and dingy. Breakfast was good, and the staff were accommodating. ##### Shelley Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2018 ### 4/10 Poor #### Karen 2 Oct 2018 Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Don’t bother, needs updating urgently Old tired pub letting out rooms. Enter through public bar no reception. Men, dogs, Tv, loud music etc nothing inviting. Barmaid couldn’t find key. Room clean, no top sheets on bed, unironed old duvet cover, double bed not even a duvet! A bedspread type thing and no sheet. Breakfast awful staff refused initially as 8.30am finish we were there just before but no staff she was washing up I had to go to kitchen. Scrambled egg toast not even buttered. Not offered toast jam etc tiny tea for 2. Awful we just left. ##### Karen Stayed 1 night in Sep 2018 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The Osney Arms Guest House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oxford-Hotels-The-Osney-Arms-Guest-House.h6574099.Hotel-Information) > > [The Porterhouse Grill & Rooms](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oxford-Hotels-The-Porterhouse-Grill-Rooms.h24427599.Hotel-Information) > > [The Randolph Hotel Oxford, a Graduate by Hilton](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oxford-Hotels-The-Randolph-Hotel.h21785.Hotel-Information) > > [The Oxford House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oxford-Hotels-The-Oxford-House.h21354897.Hotel-Information) > > [Red Mullions Guest House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oxford-Hotels-Red-Mullions-Guest-House.h12475734.Hotel-Information) > > [voco Oxford Spires by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oxford-Hotels-Voco-Oxford-Spires.h520298.Hotel-Information) > > [Leonardo Royal Hotel Oxford](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oxford-Hotels-Jurys-Inn-Oxford.h12654.Hotel-Information) > > [Ethos Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oxford-Hotels-Ethos-Hotel.h2141928.Hotel-Information) > > [Westgate Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oxford-Hotels-Westgate-Hotel.h4335566.Hotel-Information) > > [The Head of the River](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oxford-Hotels-The-Head-Of-The-River.h4395170.Hotel-Information) > > [easyhotel Oxford](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oxford-Hotels-Easyhotel-Oxford.h65706183.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton Oxford](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oxford-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-Oxford.h12774838.Hotel-Information) > > [voco Oxford Thames by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oxford-Hotels-Voco-Oxford-Thames-Hotel.h80393.Hotel-Information) > > [Newton House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oxford-Hotels-Newton-House.h7499101.Hotel-Information) > > [Royal Oxford Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oxford-Hotels-Royal-Oxford-Hotel.h14983.Hotel-Information) > > [Remont Oxford Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oxford-Hotels-Remont-Oxford-Hotel.h18173360.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Oxford Hawkwell House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oxford-Hotels-Mercure-Oxford-Hawkwell-House-Hotel.h554934.Hotel-Information) > > [The Tree Hotel at Iffley](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oxford-Hotels-The-Tree-Hotel-At-Iffley.h11899956.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Oxford Eastgate Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oxford-Hotels-Mercure-Oxford-Eastgate-Hotel.h1222239.Hotel-Information) > > [Cotswold Lodge Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oxford-Hotels-Cotswold-Lodge-Hotel.h1209522.Hotel-Information) > > [The Hawking](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oxford-Hotels-The-Hawking.h34752962.Hotel-Information) > > [Courtyard by Marriott Oxford City Centre](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oxford-Hotels-Courtyard-By-Marriott-Oxford-City-Centre.h36762018.Hotel-Information) > > [The Buttery Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oxford-Hotels-The-Buttery-Hotel.h2295630.Hotel-Information) > > [George Street Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oxford-Hotels-George-Street-Hotel.h18913127.Hotel-Information) > > [Linton Lodge Hotel, BW Signature Collection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oxford-Hotels-Best-Western-Plus-Oxford-Linton-Lodge-Hotel.h455423.Hotel-Information) > > [The Galaxie](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oxford-Hotels-The-Galaxie.h11899953.Hotel-Information) > > [Malmaison Oxford](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oxford-Hotels-Malmaison-Oxford.h7733850.Hotel-Information) > > [Mount Pleasant Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oxford-Hotels-Mount-Pleasant-Hotel.h35540366.Hotel-Information) > > [Vanbrugh House Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oxford-Hotels-Vanbrugh-House-Hotel.h10066568.Hotel-Information) > > [The Bocardo Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Oxford-Hotels-The-Bocardo-Hotel.h22465458.Hotel-Information)
