Excellent city centre hotel

Made us feel really welcome and had a lovely stay for our anniversary. Very central location.
Emma, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Really helpful and lovely staff. Told at check-in that we had breakfast included but told the opposite at breakfast. Other than that, a lovely stay.
Faye, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Lovely comfortable stay

Lovely comfortable stay. Comfortable beds, very good shower and roomy bathroom with good light. We stayed on an exceptionally hot evening so we made use of the fan. Friendly and polite and helpful staff.
Sally, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This was a great place to stay for our trip to Oxford. It was a very handy location for walking to all the attractions.
Skyler, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Comfortable but limited

This is a small hotel in a central location. My standard room was small but comfortable, although a little cold overnight. It was perfectly fine, but the price was a little much for this kind of place, which had no real facilities. The breakfast was expensive and very limited. There was a lot of noise and clutter in the corridors from early on when the cleaning began (from about 7)

10/10 Exceptional

An historic property in the centre of Oxford. All the major sites are in walking distance. We had a great stay
Ian, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Location was great but hotel was just adequate. There was major construction next door that started at 6:30 am and went all through the day. There is no public space to receive guests. The bathroom is barely functional with no shelves or hooks to hold toiletries. The shower was hardly a drip and hot water was scarce.
Evan, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Super convenient location. We also had a lovely, quiet room with a small outdoor area. Lovely oasis after the bustle of central Oxford.
Rahul, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Overall another good stay

Another good stay at the Vanbrugh hotel for work. The location is great and very central if that's what you're looking for. Room is clean and good toiletries etc. Unfortunately the bed in room 3 was very uncomfortable and I could feel the frame underneath the mattress. Otherwise I could not fault my stay and I'm sure I'll book again soon for another work trip.

Property lovely and very quiet while being in the centre of a noisy city. It was a very hot night when I stayed and a stronger fan would have been good! Otherwise excellent.
