The hotel was reasonable but a bit pricey in terms of value. I was hoping for something a bit better. The room was good and the bathroom was lovely. All the staff were great. The arrangement with the cafe for breakfast was not great as we had hoped for something to be included. Unfortunately as food intolerances and allergies become more prevalent, it was disappointing that the cafe could not cater for any requirements. Sainsbury’s is also attached to what would have been a lovely building in the past.
In hindsight, this was not the best option for our stay, as it was too far from the main town and it was difficult to find safe parking nearby. It is unlikely we would stay here again. If you want a place right near the station, then this would be ideal.

Beautiful. Classic. Timeless. Built in 1935 as a railway hotel, it is still serving that purpose today. We came in by train and used the Royal Oxford Hotel as a staging base as we quickly explored Oxford. I'm the future we need to spend more time! Anyway, the Royal Oxford Hotel was an excellent location as we came in by train and then moved along our travels by train. Thanks ROH!

We REALLY appreciated the air conditioning, since we were there during the heatwave. The location was convenient to the train, and there is a delightful cafe staffed by adults with cognitive disabilities nearby (Yellow Submarine). The shower didn’t quite work the first night and the only person on staff was a sweet trainee who tried to fix it, but she wasn’t able to; it would have been helpful to have someone else on staff. We enjoyed our stay overall!

The location is in easy walking distance of the railway station.

Great location- walking distance to train station and city centre. Is in a renovated 19th century railway hotel. Spotless rooms. Quiet too. Helpful staff. No lift in hotel so be prepared to lug bags upstairs. Room was so well heated that we had to leave the windows open (in February). Would book again if I ever return to Oxford.

Hotel is very close to train station and within walking distance of most things you’d like to see in Oxford. There’s no lift but staff will help you carry luggage up the stairs.

The room was very clean but very compact. There was no shower gel left in the container. There were no extras at all - not even a shower cap or washer. It was a very spartan stay!!! We had to cart our luggage up to the second floor by ourselves. The staff were friendly but tended to offer assistance after you had already done the job. The reception area was not at the front of the building so that meant they didn’t see you unless you went to them.

It was very good and the only issue that we had was not having the air conditioning working on our first night but staff got it fixed for the following two nights.

Comfortable, Clean, Well Located

Room was clean and comfortable and staff were friendly. Hotel was an easy 8 min walk from the bus station, 5-10 min walk to places to eat & see, and 13 min walk to the car rental company. We would stay there again. The only thing that was odd was that the desk staff asked us not to take our room key off premises when we went out dining or sightseeing -- they wanted the room key left at the desk and picked-up upon our return, which was first time we have ever been asked this by a hotel, and it was not as convenient as being trusted to carry our key safely with us.

The hotel’s interior is new and clean. But it is very noisy. There is fire trucks passing the hotel frequently with sirens on. There are people gathered right outside of the hotel talking loudly. Also a lot of noises from cars passing by the hotel. It is hard to fall asleep with all the noises from outside.

The location was very convenient, a few minutes walk from the train station and close to the centre. The staff were excellent, the receptionist who checked us in couldn't have been more helpful. She gave us a choice of rooms and a map with all the popular places marked. The other reception staff were also very friendly and helpful.

Average

Average stay, rooms are basic but functional. Check in is a little intense - treated as though you have never stayed in a hotel, escorted to your room. Never had an experience like it! Also if you select pay on arrival they take payment immediately upon booking which was 2 weeks before I stayed in my case. Even though my room was flexible and refundable.

Excellent Location

I loved my stay at this hotel. It's is close to the train station, has a restaurant and a Sainsburys downstairs. Had a chance to see the city within two hours.

Absurd that the hotel has no lift! If your particulars had included this basic information, as an 84 year old, I would have gone elsewhere. It makes me realise that I cannot rely on Expedia particulars and as a consequence I may cease to use Expedia. Otherwise (but this is a big exception), the hotel was fine.

Very convenient from the train station and just at the edge of the city center. Oxford castle about a 3m walk. Rooms were clean and spacious (by UK standards) and a supermarket was just around the corner. There's no lift however but wasn't a problem since we didn't have a lot of luggage. Overall, pretty happy and would stay here again if we're ever in Oxford.

Great comfortable one night stay

We had a one night stay, which was just perfect. Very close to the train station. Walkable distance to all food and beverage areas.

Customer service was very nice and the rooms were comfortable and very clean.

The only thing is —it is by a train station so remember to bring your earplugs and it is a very busy roundabout——you should expect that when staying so close to a transit center.
Had a wonderful time in Oxford being a tourist

Really impressed with this hotel

Exceptionally friendly front staff, lovely clean room and bathroom. Beautiful old building with thick walls and a good layout. 3 minutes walk from train station, 10 minute walk from centre and all attractions, fab location. Really impressed for a 3 star hotel. Would definitely stay again.
Slight road noise but did not disturb sleep.

Barely got any sleep due to traffic outside and building works somewhere. Not the hotel's fault but would put me off staying there again. There is a restaurant next door but no facilities at the hotel.
The receptionist was very nice and the room was warm.
Huge shower.

enjoyable 2 night break

We had a nice 2 night break, just a reminder to anyone who needs a lift, unfortunately they don't have one, but the rooms are very clean and comfortable. Only 5 minute walk and you are in the city centre.
