Just back from a few days staying at the De Vere, Sandford on Thames. Excellent hotel, comfy deluxe double, delicious breakfast with great choice of food. Helpful staff on reception suggested taking the bus, from just outside the hotel, in to Oxford. 15 mins and we were in the heart of the city. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Extremely disappointed with this hotel. The heating system was not working properly, our room was cold the entire time we stayed there. We were given a fanheater for our room but it was not really ideal given the low temperatures we had during the weekend. I had a treatment booked at the spa, again staff were using a fanheater to warm the room as it was really cold. I expected a variety of food items for breakfast but this wasn't the case, the breakfast range was very limited-no fresh fruits...

Amazing little hotel in a back street, very clean and comfortable, we arrived early to drop our bags of as we had a tour later but our room was already available so they let us use the room straight away. Hardly any noise from other guests although there was a busy pub opposite the noise was minimal. Staff very polite, 20 minute walk to Oxford City Centre. Would highly recommend and would stay here again.

Our stay at the Mercure was overall very positive. We travelled from north devon to visit a family member at the Churchill hospital. We arrived at 1pm on Sunday and didnt expect to check in, but asked in the bar if we could have a quick sandwich before driving to the hospital. we were told that we could only have a roast dinner or chips. When asked, staff were told by chef that this was not possible. This was not a good first impression. Apart from this everything was excellent and all staff...

We were attending a parents event at one of the colleges on Saturday morning, so decided to treat ourselves to a night at The Old Bank Hotel the night before to allow for dinner and a more leisurely start in the morning. The hotel has its own car park and is perfectly situated on the High Street. Our room overlooked the dreaming spires of Oxford was tastefully decorated, equipped to a high specification and extremely comfortable. After dinner, we enjoyed a glass of wine in the peace and quiet...

Anniversary weekend. Very nice hotel with character and good service - just what we were looking for. The room was super, the hotel serve fantastic afternoon tea and we loved the quiet library and the little sun-trap on the library terrace. Would have liked fluffy bathrobes, but can't think of anything else to improve. Be warned: - The bed was hard (which we like/prefer) but large and comfortable. The climb to our room was via small twisty stairs with a very low door. So if you have any physical...

First time visitors to Oxford, this place was ideal for two twin rooms at a sensible price for an overnight stay with what turned out to be an excellent breakfast. No question next time we visit I will be checking out availability on this place first, family enjoyed it. Easy buses every 10 mins or so into and out of the city centre. (Get the family 24h ticket, good value!)

Costa was very welcoming with information before arrival then when arriving early with check in and letting us drop our bags in our rooms when we arrived early and more than helpful with our parking. Rooms were lovely, big and modern with all amenities, would definately return if visiting Oxford again. Thank you Costa

The hotel was lovely as were the rooms. Only issue for us was we were in bedroom 8 which was opposite the extractor for what we assume was the kitchens and this was noisy at night.
However, the hotel was lovely and well situated close to the river and town centre shops. We even took the express bus into Oxford (run every 20 mins from around the corner from hotel) to save on hassle and parking.
Really enjoyed our stay and would stay again, but maybe not in bedroom 8 .

Very friendly welcome at the reception to check in. Although the rooms are ‘compact & bijou’ they are spotlessly clean. The location is perfect with a number of shops/cafes located right outside along with a very efficient & regular public transport link into central Oxford.
