The check in process was annoying as it needed to be done on screen that barely worked. The hostess eventually did our check in herself.
The room was nice enough, very comfy bed. The view is not exceptional but is still nice (we had a view on a little house with interesting architecture). The shower could have been more cleaned. The white draps on the windows are not correctly secured on the wall and fell on me…
Would be much better and greatly appreciated if room slippers were provided too given the dusty conditions of the room.
Location is great for getting all around Oxford.
The staff were great- especially Colin. Nothing seemed too much trouble.
I’m definitely staying here when I next come to Oxford!
Arrived early, bit of a frosty reception when I asked for an early check in. Reception was full of luggage from one family and no one asked them to move it, so difficult to squeeze past.
When I arrived for breakfast, I asked for any non-dairy milk but was told they were waiting for a delivery. That meant I couldn’t have any cereal or hot drinks with breakfast. Not impressed, especially as there’s a supermarket over the road and they could easily have bought a bottle. My friend also asked for yogurt but they hadn’t got any. No real apologies for missing items.
Usually happy with Premier Inn but I would choose a different hotel if staying in Oxford again.
