The Cotswold House was a really enjoyable place to stay. The room was lovely and clean, the beds were comfortable. Checking in and out was easy.
The breakfast service felt really personal thanks to the excellent staff. It was a simple breakfast but of a high standard. I would definitely return here in the future as it was excellent value for money.

The reason for the 4 star room is just because the shower wasn't the best, but other than that everything was great.

Had a lovely stay here when in town for a graduation. Mark gave us a really warm welcome and the room was great, breakfast was nice too. Having a front door key and being able to come and go without having to ring was a bonus too if staying out a bit late. Close to Oxford centre, just a short bus ride.
Only downsides really would be the water pressure in the shower isn't the best, and the decor is a bit dated but it has everything you could need for a few days and was a great price for a graduation weekend. We would come again.

Good location, just 7 min by bus to City center. Very nice owner/manager, parking available. Rooms quite old, house has seen better days, definetely no 4 stars.

Good location a bus away from the city, and good.value price. Genuinely warm welcome extended by the manager on site and the member of staff serving breakfast was attentive. Overall, could do with a bit of maintenance and the ability to provide full.cooked breakfasts. Our room had substantial.damage to the shelf.on which the fridge sat, and the main bathroom light didn't work. We would.also really appreciate a larger bed, although Queen size is sufficient.
