Hotels With bar in Oxfordshire, United Kingdom

I loved the place, looks clean. I didn’t eat there was in a rush to drive back but it was great.

Great location, easy access to major attractions in Oxford. Love the literary theme of its interior and rooms. Service and concierge staff were very helpful, accommodating and friendly. Our graduate twin room was surprisingly spacious and very pretty. Breakfast selections were plentiful and of good standard. Highly recommended if ever in Oxford.

Great for self-driving, it's right off the highway. Parking is easy with a QR code, and I've attached a picture of the overnight parking fee. If you're staying longer than 24 hours, just tell the front desk and they can waive the extra charges on their system. There's a gas station and fast food like KFC nearby. It's also convenient to get to the city center by taking the 300 bus. Both the breakfast and dinner provided were excellent.

The hotel is a ten-minute walk from Blenheim Palace, which is very convenient. If you are in Oxford the night before, you can stay here and go directly to Churchill Manor the next morning. The house is an old house, but it is quite clean. Better than expected. The only thing that is not satisfactory is the receptionist on the evening of October 5th. Her coldness makes people think that they are in Germany instead of Britain, but as a front desk receptionist, she does not even have the most basic polite greetings (such as hello, welcome) and her attitude is not like a German at all. I have never encountered such service quality in the UK, which is very unprofessional, so I choose 2 points (unsatisfied) for the service. If you don't want to spend money to see a big cold face, you can choose other hotels nearby.

This was the first hotel we stayed at on our right-hand drive trip. We picked it mainly for the huge car park and the relaxing golf course views, which definitely made things a bit less stressful. I booked the most basic room type, and that's exactly what we got – nothing fancy, no extra frills, certainly didn't feel like the 'Western hospitality' I might have expected.

Close to the station and Oxford University, walking attractions are all done. The breakfast is rich and affordable. The room is also very good, spacious and comfortable. The only two dissatisfaction: 1. The old house has no elevator, there is a suitcase to move upstairs, the stairs are particularly narrow. 2. The front desk has to press the credit card 💳. I was afraid of being stolen and wanted to press cash to be rejected. I couldn't stay without giving him a visa credit card message. I was deadlocked for a while. I used the elderly card to press the message and locked the card directly. I don't know why it is so rigid.

The hotel is about five kilometers from Oxford city center, a convenient 10-12 minute taxi ride away. The hotel's front desk manager and several staff members are British and provide good service. There's also a Chinese lady, likely to facilitate communication with Chinese guests. Overall, the facilities are quite good and relatively new. I have two issues though: 1. There's no elevator, so you have to carry your luggage upstairs yourself; 2. The gym opens at 6:30 AM and closes at 9:30 PM, but they stop allowing entry at 9 PM. The English breakfast is decent and quite authentic. However, the service is generally poor. During my stay, one morning I witnessed a female front desk receptionist arguing with an elderly British man, who seemed extremely upset. This level of service is unacceptable. One evening, I had cod at Leo's restaurant, and it was the worst I've ever tasted. When it was served, it had a slight odor, similar to stinky mandarin fish. It was bland and incredibly dry when I ate it. It smelled bad and tasted like nothing. After two bites, I left it, only eating the sides and fries. The fries were also the worst I've ever had, no exaggeration! Overall, I'd likely stay at this hotel again in the future, but I definitely won't be having dinner at the hotel restaurant.

We have stayed here twice. The first time (2025) we were in the block which is separate to the main building- this was OK and the service was much better. The latest time we stayed we were in the main building- its grotty. The carpet leading to the rooms was stained and the room itself although it looked clean, didn't 'feel clean'-the place could do with a refresh and new carpets. We were unable to get food upon arrival as they stop serving at 9pm- we arrived a couloe of minutes before 9pm after a 4 hour drive, we were disappointe and we could see a couple eating in the bar area whose meals came out long after we had arrived- so really we could have ordered and been served. We ended up ordering an Uber eats meal.

U really need a car if u are staying here. Otherwise, pricing is bargain basement compared to Oxford proper. Free parking, nice clean rooms though it's a good 20-25 min drive into central oxford. Would stay here again if in the area

The hotel is located at the city centre, just 3-5 minute walk from Westgate: can't be better: 5 stars The room is clean and daily house keeping did a good job: 5 stars Facilities are not perfect but understandable in limited space in an expensive city: 4 stars Service: Staff in general is professional and up to Courtyard standard ... EXCEPT the night shift assistant manager who made the check-in experience terrible!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I wouldn’t call the night shift assistant manager’s attitude merely disappointing — it was astonishing. We arrived to check in around midnight, and it seemed we might have disturbed his sleep. He reacted with rudeness, even slamming the desk as he handed me the check‑in sheet, and curtly instructed me to sign it. It was already late at night, and after a long day of traveling I chose not to voice my disappointment at that time. However, I did not encounter him again in the following days during my stay. Indeed I sent a couple of messages through the booking agent to the hotel informing my late arrival, but none of them got a reply. Is it a normal practice (no response) of Courtyard?
