Upkeep of the hotel is generally poor. Cleanliness standards aren’t great. Bathrooms of the family room are tiny. We had booked for two nights but left after spending just one night. Quite disappointing.

The hotel is very nice and clean. Rooms are spacious and well equipped (even with a Nespresso machine). Staff very friendly and polite. Bed was comfy but bed sheets were stained. Breakfast was very good with quality products and a good variety. The view from the window was a building site which fortunately being a Bank Holiday wasn't in operation! Not sure about the noise from there in the morning during a working day.....
I chose this hotel for a short break mainly because of the Spa facilities which were infact quite disappointing as the pool is very small as well as the sauna and steam room. No jacuzzi and no space for chairs or sunbeds for a bit of relaxation by the pool.
At busy times you are only allowed a 30 minutes slot which goes very quickly.

It would have been great to be able to use the pool for more than 30 minutes. Also, the steakhouse was not open on the night when we were there. Other than that, the hotel and the experience overall have been a very pleasant surprise, this is a little gem of a hotel and we are very glad to have stayed there! Amazing service, lovely little touches like free lemonades and ice lollies for children. If we will return to the area, we would definitely book Leonardo hotel again.

We have a lovely break here, the hotel has a very friendly atmosphere, it looks quite smart. The breakfast was nice, but the cooked part of the breakfast was not hot enough lukewarm at best on 3 days. The gym is big and well equipped, the pool is quite small.I am plumber so I understand why your hot water is as hot as it is. It was not a problem for us but it could be if children turn the hot tap on. You could put a notice on saying hot water can be very hot.

We had an amazing stay, the team were so lovely. Andrew went out of his way to make our stay so special and left us a birthday card for our twins 1st birthday with some treats in our room. Thank you so much! The hotel is so clean and very versatile, you could visit with family, as a couple or for business. The swimming pool was also really lovely. Great location for Oxford or Bicester.

A great place, excellent maintenance, great value for money! The rooms are cozy & the bathroom/ wc is very neat & well maintained. A lot of thought has gone into it.

The check-in staff at night duty have no clue where the rooms are located, they just point the fingers towards a general direction. The concierge themselves got lost trying to locate the rooms! When you are tired & searching for your impossible-to-find rooms, do try to look at the ceiling for the directions, cause that's where they are! After that experience, the £4/- for the parking is not a value add.

We organised two conferences at this hotel in a period of 10 days, with at least 20 rooms booked for participants. I personally chose the hotel as it was the best in my opinion in Oxford. From the moment you step into the lobby the smell and fragrance of the whole hotel is amazing. You will notice it immediately. Staff at the reception are all lovely and helpful. You find flavored water jars, fruits and biscuits upon arrival. Rooms are clean and spacious. Toilet amenities all from The White Company which I love.

Breakfast has great variety and you have a chef that makes your egg the way you prefer.

For conferences and events, the halls are amazing. A big thank you to Izabela, Sakib and Andrew for all the help and support throughout the days.

I will surely be back with my family.

Its not in the center but you can take Bus number 6 just outside of the hotel to the center. 15 to 20 min drive to Bicester Village.

In my opinion, hotels in the centre will be much smaller. You have got to choose what you want.

I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. It’s cozy, spotless, and located in a lovely green area—perfect for a peaceful getaway. The big parking area was a real plus, and the outdoor swimming pool was an amazing bonus, especially for the kids to enjoy a sunny English day!
A special thank you to the night shift team at reception—Brendan, Manuja, and Sherol. They were incredibly professional, friendly, and approachable, leaving a truly great first impression. We even forgot our eyeglasses, and to our surprise, they returned them to us the very next day. That kind of service is rare and truly appreciated!
The bartender also stood out for offering the right advice with excellent service—just what guests need to unwind.

Thank you all so much. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Room was great, very comfortable bed! Breakfast was amazing, honestly one of the best breakfasts I’ve had in hotels for a while! So much choice and the hot food was so good. Parking is too cheap at £6 per night! So definitely a good choice to stay out here and then take a uber into oxford city centre which costs £7-9 each way.
Staff are so friendly at checkin and in the restaurant.
