The only minor complaint was having to pay an extra £10 for breakfast which made it quite expensive especially if you didn't have a cooked breakfast. Staff were great though and gave a very good restaurant recommendation. Thank you.

Convenient location, comfortable room

My cousin and i spent just one night at the Oxford Guest House because it was convenient to Heathrow for a morning flight. The bus to Heathrow leaves just 2 blocks away. It was also convenient to bus service to the center of Oxford. We were concerned that our twin room was in the front of the house which is on a busy street but it was not at all noisy during the night. The room was small but comfortable. The bathroom was very nice and clean. The young man who checked us in was pleasant and helpful.

The Oxford Guest House is perfectly located for visiting The Kilns (CS Lewis house), Holy Trinity Church, and the local parks. It's very close to the bus stations, which made visiting the college campuses and city center very easy. Check-in was simple. The room was small but comfortable. The bathroom was accessibility-rated and very nice. My only complaint was that the electric kettle was pretty dirty and caused floaters in the tea. I wasn't able to get it clean myself. Overall, it was a very good location for my trip and I would stay here again.

An Excellent 1 Night Stay in Superior Double Room

We have just spent one night at this wonderful B&B which is located on the outskirts of Oxford city, with excellent transport links into Oxford city centre with a bus stop situated right outside. We stayed in a superior double room located upstairs at the rear of the premises overlooking the car park. The room was immaculate, spacious, comfortable and very quiet. The room was en-suite, comfortable bed, furnished with a desk, armchair, fridge, tv, hairdryer, tea/coffee making facilities. The B&B offers cooked and continental breakfast (at a charge), which we didn't take advantage of as we had other plans. The two ladies we met were very friendly and helpful. We could not fault our brief stay and would certainly stay again.
