Overall another good stay

Another good stay at the Vanbrugh hotel for work. The location is great and very central if that's what you're looking for. Room is clean and good toiletries etc. Unfortunately the bed in room 3 was very uncomfortable and I could feel the frame underneath the mattress. Otherwise I could not fault my stay and I'm sure I'll book again soon for another work trip.

Lovely hotel in central Oxford

Charming little house, and I felt thoroughly spoiled by the upgrade to a suite! Just wonderful. The reception clerk even kindly offered to post my postcards since I had to catch a train. Very kind staff, the three I met. I wish the windows opened more, but I understand.

Michelle, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Nice but needed more information.

The service, room and location were wonderful but the bed was really hard. It would have been nice to know there was construction next door before we made the reservation. Waking up to the beeping of backing trucks at 7:00 am was a little much.

Overall was a nice stay at the hotel but one of the staff Elena is the best! She is very helpful in all kinds of way! She made my day!
Cecilia, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

It was incredibly last minute but the person on reception (I think of South Asian descent) was very professionaly and friendly and got be booked in quickly and he was helpful when I had issues with my key. I've stayed here before - great location, nice building and rooms, great staff. My only criticism would be that the WiFi was down for about 30 mins and the bathroom did not smell nice.

Trip with my daughter for cultural event in Oxford

Very helpful staff at reception. Room was great and exactly what we expected (maybe even more spacious). My daughter and I were able to have a relaxed evening and in the morning, it was a short walk to amenities in Oxford. Only two points to raise: 1. A hotel of this calibre should really have a parking deal negotiated with a local venue. 2. No eggs or hot options at breakfast made the breakfast feel overpriced. If you need to, charge a bit more but I would recommend these be made available.
