We stayed for three nights at the Oxford hotel and couldn't complain. We had a room in the basement floor, which was small, but had a window to a small backyard. The towels were changed every day and there was a microwave, a water boiler and a selection of teas and other hot drinks available in the room for free.... More

Although the hotel is quite simple, one can notice the charming feeling of it from the front desk man friendly approach, free wifi connection and even from the pottery in the kitchen. Great location, close to Hyde Park and clean and confy bedrooms. I recommend.

There are so many positive reviews about this place so I was convinced to book it for a 7 days stay in London. I was disappointed. There is no lift in this hotel and we had to struggle to climb a narrow stair case with heavy suitcases. The room is very small and cramped with the beds. There is no... More

The Oxford hotel is well located and close to Hyde Park and Lancaster Gate tube station, thats where the plus things end. Dingy , dated and very basic. Breakfast in the basement , just as if you were on a school trip, crammed into a tight space to have dry rolls and croissants, needless to say only ventured down the... More

We was a bit excited when we arrived at the hotel, according to what other have wroted. The hotel is small, but the room was not bad. It was clean, and the beds were good. The room size was what to expect in London hotels at this price. The bathroom was the smallest we EVER seen! Clean, but thats the... More

Stayed here for one night in a family room, very clean, warm and comfortable. Room a good size. Breakfast basic (cereal, bread and croissants) but plenty available. Staff were friendly and helpful. Great location, a few minutes from the tube station. Would recommend for a couple of nights but limited space for clothes. We would certainly return on another trip... More

I would not recommend this hotel. Firstly, good customer relations are clearly not one of their priorities, the man on the front desk was rude to me on several occasions. it gave a very poor impression from a tourist point of view. hair was found on the bed linen. door was very difficult to lock. our bathroom light cut out...

We just got home from a 5 day stay at The Oxford Hotel in London. We are a family of 4 and so we booked a family room, which worked out excellently. The hotel is modest and comfortable.

Yeas, I was here with my mum turning my autumn holiday.. The palace is VERY humble. We had really no time to think where we going to stay so this place seem to be good value for your money - but not in reality.. You get free breakfast (that is nice)..And it is decent but go somewhere else, please... This... More
