Best Hotels near St Benet＇s Hall Boathouse, Oxford

There is a bus station next to the hotel. It is more convenient to go to oxford center. The room size is okay, with plenty of sunlight, clean, and warm. The view from the window is very good. I saw a little squirrel in the morning, and the children liked it very much. However, after the check-in time is 4 o'clock, the check-out time is 10 o'clock, which is really inconvenient. In addition, the room cleaning will only be provided if the stay is more than 5 consecutive days. We have not cleaned the room for three consecutive days. I think it is not very reasonable and needs to be improved. .

Stayed here for 1 night as it was close to the 02. Very limited car park on site do had to park on the street. Should have turned around at the front door which was very uninviting. Green fish tanks in the hallway and bags of stuff. Went through to the back room to check in. Absolute bomb site, paperwork and junk everywhere. Chinese man took payment and showed us to our room. Room was freezing as all the windows were open. Probably to get rid of any lurking smells. Checked the bed first, bedding was actually crisp, white and clean. Curtains were all ripped, furniture needed replacing, mattress was too small for the bed so had a bit gap where you could see cardboard covering the slats. Bathroom was somewhat clean but needed a major redo. When we returned after our night out we struggled to get in the front door. The key doesn’t fit right. During the night the front door rang so others obviously had the same problem. My partner turned over a couple of times when he got into bed and felt the slats give way so he spent the whole night frozen to one spot in case he fell through the bed. I slept quite well considering. Didn’t bother with the shower the next morning was safer to wait til I got home. Left the keys on the bedside table and got out fast. Will definitely not be staying here again. Feels dirty, unsafe and needs major improvement. Only good point was the location was 5 mins walk to the 02.

Room was lovely, comfy bed and very spacious. Breakfast was 10/10 with lots of options. This was a trip for my partners birthday and we arrived to balloons and a treat in the room which was a lovely touch. I wouldn’t hesitate to visit again.

The only homestay booked in this trip is a little distance from the center of Oxford Town. It takes about 20 minutes to walk. There is a separate yard to do the parking lot. It is very difficult to park at Oxford. Breakfast is done on site, there is also self-service, and the service brother is very good. The location of the front desk is not very clear, the room is on the highest floor, there is no elevator, the stairs are narrow, it will be very difficult to carry heavy luggage, and the bath water adjustment is not very good.

Good location but accommodation very disappointing, the so called ”delux double” was tiny with not even enough space to get past the end and side of the bed. Bathroom also tiny! A real shame, pics are very misleading.

Room #904. Parking was provided (limited availability, but no problem if you check in early). Nice room, but noisy bunch of young people partying below us that evening and night, but I appreciate that can't be helped while the May VIII's are racing on the river (Bumps). We had some friends join us for supper in ”Keepers' restaurant and bar and were repeatedly hurried by the waitress to get our order in before 8:40pm ”because 9pm is when the chef goes home”. Well it didn't need a 'chef' truly, but the food was acceptable and reasonably priced at £120 for 4 including drinks. No chance of pud though, unless you had ordered it before the watershed. We had bought our own birthday cake, so we had that instead. I can't think of any other European countries where this would happen... We asked if we could leave our car in situ for a few hours after we checked out the following morning and we were accommodated with grace, which was very kind. A well-situated establishment, we paid £150 for the night for a double room in the new block.

I enjoyed my stay at Central Backpackers. It's a small, compact hostel so it's pretty easy to start up a conversation with someone if you feel like it. The room (8 bed female dorm) was super spacious, and it was great to have power sockets and a light for each bed. Hostel was clean, showers were nice, but one of the toilets always seemed to have an issue with flushing (toilet within shower room by dorm 7). Kitchen was small but seemed like it had everything you'd need if you wanted to cook. Movie room was small but cosy. Great location, 5 mins from train station and easy walk to main attractions.

During the summer vacation, the prices are favorable, the rooms are all of the same standard size, and the prices vary depending on the view. Clean and hygienic, not big, but practical. I saw that the price in September is quite expensive, costing 3K. It is very close to the Westgate Shopping Center in Oxford and is very convenient for all kinds of food. It is also very convenient to reach various colleges in Oxford within walking distance. The breakfast at the hotel is very good. In addition to the various delicacies on display, you can also ask the waiter for some freshly made omelet egg rolls, which taste better than Hilton hotels. Produced by Marriott, the quality is assured.

As I wrote in previous reviews, we've stayed here many times over about 20 years. Some upgrades & improvements have taken place over the years, but the affordable budget cost remains. The place has always been clean, is a nice walk into the town centre, & the staff (Martyn & others) have always been friendly and helpful. Several books about some parts of Oxford that tourists might miss are available in the B&B lobby area. We don't need breakfast as we'd rather grab a coffee at one of the cafes in town. This year we discovered a cute little park, called Hinksey Park about 2 blocks from the hotel, with a pond, swing sets, wildlife etc. As always, Newton House provides a home away from home.

Good location, spacious rooms and excellent services. Would stay again when traveling to Oxford.
