Top Ashmolean Museum Hotel Reviews

Cotswold Lodge Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We loved how easy check in and check out. A beautiful lodge with easy access to all the city has to offer"

George Street Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"A modest hotel, very well located, extremely clean and well-maintained, in an excellent location. Staff were very helpful. My room was mall but very quiet and had a lovely view. Some of the printed materials are a bit out of date. Otherwise, very good."

Old Parsonage Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The staff were all incredibly friendly and helpful, making me feel truly welcome"

The Store

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely hotel, great location and nice lobby/bar cafe Would recommend"

The Randolph Hotel Oxford, a Graduate by Hilton

8/10 Good

"This is a lovely hotel. However, the floor plan is very complex. The room we had (and certainly not the cheapest) was on the first floor. Up to the first floor in the elevator. Up several steps, down several steps and then down 2 flights of stairs. This is definitely not accessible."

The Bocardo Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"By far, the best thing about our stay is how helpful the staff were. Even though sometimes no one is at the front desk, they are quite responsive. My husband and I had a big health scare while we were visiting. They took the time to help us with establishing a UK phone number, troubleshooting, getting to our care facilities, and even took the time to secure a room for us should we have needed an extra night. They were amazing!"

Courtyard by Marriott Oxford City Centre

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were very accommodating always with a smile."

Euro Bar and Hotel

10/10 Excellent

Premier Inn Oxford City Centre - Westgate
