"First time in a Holiday Inn and very impressed! Extremely clean, spacious rooms and great shower! The free breakfast was great as well, better than some hotel breakfasts you pay for. Super convenient for Bicester Village too, literally a 4 min drive. Would look to stay in a Holiday Inn over some of their competitors in the future. "

"We stayed here as a base for the Game Fair and it was a great location for that. We didn’t really explore the area much but we did get pizza from The Hertford which was good. There wasn’t any garden chairs and is it was lovely weather this was a bit amid a shame as the domino was in the courtyard a fair bit. The cottage was pretty, tidy, clean and cosy. No welcome package was a bit of a shame as this has become pretty standard for holiday cottages and the garden was overrun with bindweed...

"Hotel was fabulous, great room, lovely staff and such an easy walk into the centre of Oxford. Perfect for a two night stay. Super food in the restaurant too."
"Our stay was simply wonderful. The room was lovely, the bar was friendly, the breakfast was delicious. Will definitely choose this hotel again when I visit in the Spring. "
"An amazing hotel, the service was perfect and an unexpected upgrade really appreciated. Our room was lovely, beautiful and clean and the little extras (chocolate and champagne) really appreciated, (also don’t forget to look in the fridge which is ‘hidden’ in the wardrobe!) Bathroom was spacious and had lovely products and thick luxurious towels.
Staff were so friendly and full of advice and tips, they made you feel special and welcomed.
However breakfast was a little underwhelming, cooked options not to my taste, it may have been better to offer a selection of breakfast items to choose from, also (and I’ve seen this in other reviews), the continental breakfast area is very tight, it would be better for the Store to extend this and have the continental items separate to the tea and coffee making machines - it gets a little crowded! "
"Staff were excellent from the time we arrived to the time we left, room was spotless, with all the usual amenities & a small patio area outside. Lovely room!"
