Large bedroom and bathroom. Everything was clean and well maintained. Only downside was that I’d hoped to book a massage in the spa whilst my husband was in a meeting, but when I rang to book before arriving, I was told it was closed on Mondays. When I mentioned it at checkout, I was told it was open!

A very comfortable hotel with excellent staff set in attractive grounds close to the Thames. Plenty of parking, if expensive, but this is Oxford of course. The food is very good and available all day. The coffee table in our bedroom showed a bit of wear and tear and there were many doorways where the frames had been damaged then carefully painted over without repairing the wood. Probably only noticeable to a perfectionist! Two electric car chargers were also a reason for choosing the hotel. More would be welcome since cars take all night to charge on these and EVs are much more common now.

A lovely weekend away

We had a lovely stay in Oxford at voco hotel. The location was perfect with just a short stroll along the Thames to the city. The rooms were comfy enough and the breakfast was delicious with a huge selection. Thank you!

Very clean, calm and comfortable throughout the hotel. The rooms were very comfortable, spacious and a high decorative order. An excellent selection and good quality of food at breakfast. The waiting service was swift and discrete. Lots of parking and a 15 minute walk into the centre of Oxford.
