10/10

We stayed in the Jade Room, and it was so spacious! My daughter and I had more than enough room to feel comfortable and have our own space. The room included a closet, a makeup table, and tea and coffee, which I especially appreciated in the morning. The location is fantastic—within easy walking distance to many of the main areas we all come to visit in Oxford, with plenty of restaurants and pubs nearby, and a Tesco not too far away. We were about a 15 minute walk to the train station, though it honestly felt even shorter. We arrived a few hours earlier than expected, and with just a quick call, the owner allowed us early access to the room so we could store our luggage and start exploring the area right away.

We had a 1 night stop-over at Tower House. The hotel was cosy and comfortable, and the room had all the facilities we needed. It's right in the centre of Oxford so easy access to pretty much everything. The nearest car park is a short walk away. No breakfast on offer but there are plenty of cafes nearby.

The Tower House is an historic building located at the heart of Oxford. It's central location offers a plethora of dining options in easy walking distance and many areas of exploration.

Excellent location in the heart of Oxford with friendly and accommodating reception staff. The historic building was really cool and I slept well in the comfortable bed.

Really central. Great choice if you’re happy to have a small but decently set up room in the centre of Oxford. Bed was comfortable and the place was clean and well kept especially considering what an old building it is.

Perfect property - bang in the city centre and has wonderful access to all Oxford has to offer. Property is old and quriky so need to keep that in mind when you book. Especially if you are booking a shared bathroom, the shower is a bit old and rickety.

Fantastic location, good service and would recommend for solo travellers.

The Tower House is centrally located in the city and was easy to find. We arrived in the pouring rain and unfortunately had to wait until 3:00 pm to gain access to the building itself. We were hoping to drop off our bags and then go exploring before checking in. It made for a very wet experience!

This was a great spot--quiet side street within an easy walk of everything in the city center. Clean, well maintained, comfortable in every way. I'd definitely recommend it and will stay again when I am next in Oxford.

We loved the location of The Tower House, its location was centrally located to be able to walk to restaurants and the local sites easily. Although staff were not on site 24 hours a day, it was easy to contact them via phone with an immediate response.

This old building shows its medieval age clearly, but the room (we had The Foundry on the first floor) has been updated beautifully. Huge hand hewn beams still adorn the ceiling, but the room itself is spacious, the bathroom is very nice, and we had a very comfortable home for three nights. Perfect neighborhood, right near The Broad, but far enough to avoid the crowds. Also right near the Covered Market. What more do you want? We will definitely rebook next time we're in Oxford.

8/10

A small hotel with a B&B feel. This is an old building, fitting with the town of Oxford with modern features like a flatscreen tv and wifi. The location is a side street but still in the heart of town. An easy walk to all that Oxford has to offer including the new shopping center.
3-night trip

8/10

The property is a fairly small, old-fashioned, terraced house located in the centre of Oxford. Not spacious, and you'll share a bathroom but reasonably priced and great position within a short walk of the colleges.

A very old house, lot of nooks and crannies Great location for being out and about. You have to call the property manager,to get the lock box code and the find your room number,and key.

Incredibly noisy and unpleasantly warm. Bathroom moldy (with no evidence of any working extraction). Nobody on site at any time of the day so gave the impression of being a dodgy Airbnb rather than a hotel - not what I thought I'd booked. A shame as the location and the building itself are both brilliant.

Lovely historic place. Only stayed 1 night. Had room with bath only. Had I stayed for more I would have preferred shower. Still. A very unique experience and very clean!! Excellent location!
