The only good thing about the tower house is the location, very central for everything. But it goes downhill from there, managers are non existent, very difficult to get hold of by phone and extremely rude and uncaring. The photos on their sites are of the two rooms they keep tidy for publicity and even they are not great. We arrived and had to phone, took several attempts for them to answer, they gave us code to keybox, let ourselves in, totally unmanned reception so had to phone again about which room we were in as no one was there. We were told that two rooms shared a bathroom which would have been ok but in reality The only bathroom is on the top floor with four flight of stairs and shared between 6 other rooms! So as you can imagine it was terrible to try and use the shower/ toilet as it was always occupied but we didn't really want to use it as it was so dirty with mould, mildew etc. We were in The little blue room, a small double but it wasn't a double bed but a queen size one so very small. There was a sink in a very dark alcove with no light as it was broken. The room itself was very dirty, stained carpet and bedding, dirty curtains, marks on walls, holes in the walls, large mark on one wall with holes where the bed head had been fixed to wall! Overall a very unkempt dirty room. The whole house had a feeling of disrepair, neglect, dirty, as if the owners couldn't be bothered. So sad to see a grade II listed building kept in such a condition. Feel that they just wanted peoples money and are uncaring of the condition of the house. We were not the only ones with similar complaints and concerns about broken and dirty rooms. When we complained we were told that it you don't like it then leave! We are writing to Oxford council ref the state of a listed building and the owners attitude towards visitors and contacting the other sites where they are listed to make people aware.

This is a good hotel in central part of the city. We didn't use any of the facilities due to our short stay at the hotel. It looks quite decent and room was nice and cozy. Service was ok, but could be better if you get a proper greeting or a sort of welcoming that is expected at this level of hotels. Location is close to bus station and railway station, which is convenient if you are in/out of Oxford for a short stay.

The staff are very nice and the location is excellent - city centre easily walkable and there is a bus for £2 single anyway. The cooked breakfast is good, usually, although tomatoes were a bit hard. Smashed Avocado on toast was very good, as were the poached eggs. Breakfast buffet is not very impressive. Would have liked more than one cheese and sorry-looking ham. Disappointed that espresso or cappuccino etc were charged extra when the room was more than £300 a night. Suggestion to put in a coffee machine in the breakfast area so people can help themselves. Bathroom was just about adequate but shower head fixed and the hairdryer was on the wall in the bathroom, so underpowered to say the least. Needs renovation to come up to today’s expectations. Realise this is a Victorian house but the plumbing is not good when you can have to flush the loo numerous times..The hotel also needs better ventilation. During the summer, it can get very hot. There was no fitness area, no spa etc. Room cleaned only on request and no replacement of water bottles unless you request them. Not sure what makes this 4-star in terms of facilities. Wouldn’t stay again at more than £300 a night for a room that needs serious renovation to make it pleasurable. There is an excellent restaurant just steps away over Banbury Rd called Gee’s. Two pubs/other restaurants and a small shop close by in North Parade Avenue.

The look of this hotel looks very low-key! Even very inconspicuous, I arrived at night. After passing through the cemetery, I felt a little cautious in my heart, but I completely forgot when I entered the door. The hotel reception was small, with the restaurant, the atmosphere was very good, there was a small fireplace and bar, the hotel The waiter was also very enthusiastic. There was a Chinese lady who was very nice. The room was relatively large. The first night was a high-class room. It was quite big. The next day, the standard room was OK. The mattress was very comfortable. ! Hot water is also great! awesome

We stayed here for one night in a family room as this was the only room available. We wanted somewhere with parking so this was one of the few hotels that came up for the area. We arrived early so there was ample parking. (There are 5 spaces at the front of the building) Check in wasn't until 2pm but one of the workers took us through to reception and we were able to check in 2 hours early which was great! The hotel is on a quiet street and approximately a 10 minute walk from the Jericho area which has several pubs and restaurants. It was around 15-20 minutes to the City centre. The room was a little dated but really spacious and clean. The bathroom was large and more modern. There was tea and coffee making facilities, an iron & board. Our only ”complaint” is the lack of a mini fridge in the room. Breakfast was really nice. Continental with lots of choices, and hot options such as eggs, beans, hash browns with toast. The information said there was vegan / veggie options but I didn't ask due to time. The staff were all friendly and helpful. If we were to return to Oxford, we would definitely stay at this hotel again. Thanks for our stay.

I played in Oxford for two days, because it was three people, so the choice was not so much, so I decided to make it. The room was clean and tidy, but the faucet was leaking, and the chandelier inside was also bad. There was a door in the room that could not be closed. But in general, the price is reasonable, the location is convenient, two minutes walk to the city center, the train station is less than ten minutes, but the hotel entrance is very small, on the street, you must carefully look at the signs posted at the door to find, service staff Is a little brother, very good attitude, but also help with luggage. If you are pursuing a good environment, it is not recommended, but if you travel short distances and many people, it is okay.

Why give full marks, first we arrived, there are staff enthusiastically help us with luggage, we live on the 3rd floor, the room is large up and down, the front desk staff is very warm to help us park, breakfast is free and paid, pay attention, If you don’t choose breakfast on the order, don’t be afraid. He also has breakfast for everyone. It is bread ham cheese milk coffee tea juice. This is free. The location is very convenient. It takes 8 minutes to walk to Christ College, which is the Harry Potter Magic Canteen. Go to the Ashmolean Museum within 15 minutes. Super convenient! The picture is a two-point paid breakfast, 13 yuan.

We stayed just one night to meet family members for dinner in Oxford. It is very well located for the city cetre. Despite that, it is in a quiet location and we had a good night's rest in a small but comfortable room. It lacks the range of facilites that you may want for a long stay. For example, it has no lounge, restaurant or lifts, which is the only reason I could not give 5 /5 for facilites. What facitlities is does have are good: in room tea and coffee making, television, radio and WiFi. Staff are friendly and helpful. We came by car and used the Park and Ride system, which is excellent. Oxford bus services are good. The hotel is also only a short taxi ride from the station if you go by train. The hotel was ideal for a short stay and we will use it again.

Really enjoyed our 5night stay. The manager and every staff member were so friendly, polite and attentive. Our room was spacious, clean and comfortable. I was apprehensive about being in a room at the front due to previous reviews re noise but it honestly wasn't a problem at all. The breakfast room is delightful and leads to a beautiful relaxing well kept garden with nice furniture. Choice of cooked breakfast served to you or continental breakfast if preferred. I would definitely recommend Pickwicks and look forward to visiting in the future. Trip Advisor says this hotel is 'pet friendly' this is incorrect as they do not accept pets

I was a bit dubious about staying in a room above a pub/ restaurant, but was very pleasantly surprised ! The room was really nice, as well as the bathroom.( A light above the bathroom mirror, might be a good idea ? ) The bed was excellent & although the main road was nearby, I slept like a log. The English breakfast & the buffet was really good value for money.The staff were really friendly & very helpful.......We will be back !
