Restaurant is better than the hotel

It is quaint. A little boutique hotel with character.

My room (No. 4 Deluxe room) was located on the upper floors, which means you have to go up two very narrow staircases. Plus the floors are uneven. Staff at breakfast talked too loudly and were badmouthing a colleague or friend. Very off putting.

Прекрасно

Завтрак превосходный и обильный. Месторасположение отеля замечательное - очень близко (10 мин. ходьбы) от всех достопримечательностей и центра.

Мало средств гигиены. На двоих еле хватает.

Would not recommend

Breakfast was very good

Rooms were old and poorly maintained. No A/c, even floors weren't level. Size was small. No lift for luggage. Stairs extremely narrow

Posto bellissimo, speriamo di ritornarci!

Il personale è stato super accogliente e amichevole. Siamo arrivati prima dell'orario del check-in e abbiamo potuto lasciarli le valigie che abbiamo poi ritrovato comodamente in camera. La camera era pulita ed estetica, con un bel bagno e una doccia spaziosa. Da non sottovalutare le tende belle pesanti in camera per non fare passare luce al mattino. In camera abbiamo trovato anche un ottimo ventilatore e macchinetta per caffè/tè. La colazione era di ottima qualità, offerta sia salata che dolce. Super consigliata la "porterhouse breakfast", ovvero la loro versione della tipica full English breakfast.

Niente....

Mysigt, och mat och trevlig personal!

Majoriteten av personalen var otroligt trevliga! Väldigt mysigt hotell med fina rum men restaurangen gjorde detta hotell! Riktigt bra frukost som ingick och maten var superb. Man kände sig riktigt välkommen och kommer gärna tillbaka. Bra läge nära tågstationen. En liten promenad från centrum.

Väldigt lyhört tyvärr.

オシャレでセンスの良いホテル

清潔感があり、おしゃれな内装。オックスフォード駅からも近く、住宅街の中にあるホテルって感じで周りは静かです。スタッフの方がスーツケースを3階まで運んで頂けるなど、対応が素晴らしかったです。

朝食の開始時間が9時からだった点。もう少し早ければ尚良いかと。それ以外は見当たりません。

We loved our stay at the Porterhouse

Beautiful room, super comfy bed, friendly staff, quiet at night and delicious breakfast. Great location just on the edge of town and handy for the park and ride. Would definately recommend to others and stay again.

Great place to stay

It's really comfortable and clean, this was our 2nd time stopping and will stay again. The restaurant downstairs is great if you like steak and as its a little way out of the centre it's really quiet at night

This guest house is great but as an old building my only complaint is that the windows rattle a lot which can be quiet disturbing at night

It's worth staying even only for the steak.

The room was enough functional and satisfactory. The breakfast in it's steakhouse restaurant was excellent. We've also enjoyed the aged cote de boeuf for dinner which was marvelous.

We had difficulty in finding a good parking lot near the hotel.

Lovely rooms above very good restaurant, close to Oxford station.

The room was lovely - large, well equipped and very nice decor, with a good-size bathroom. Bed was very comfortable, and breakfast was generous - any option from the brunch menu plus continental. Very close to the railway station and Said Business School. Restaurant downstairs was excellent for an evening meal.

There is no air conditioning at all - not surprising in a building of this age, A very effective fan in the bedroom was most welcome but the room was still very warm, in late June. Also the door at the bottom of the stairs to the rooms is locked at night, and was not yet unlocked when we came down to breakfast, which was disconcerting. I understand the security precaution, but in the event of a fire, we'd had to have walked past the kitchen to the small courtyard out back - also locked off. Just a note for management to consider and perhaps advise guests of emergency exits.

A comfortable and convenient place to stay for enjoying Oxford.

Very good breakfast with multiple choices from the menu—nice presentation. Bed is extremely comfortable. Room is very clean with efficient and caring housekeeper. Inn is located in a quiet neighborhood very close to train and bus transport, and easy walk to city, restaurants, etc.

Room really could use a comfortable chair, and there are no wall/door hooks for hanging clothes. There’s a nice , upscale restaurant, but we did not use on our chosen night because there were young children running and screaming—surprising that this was allowed.

In general nice place to stay

+ Room well equipped and clean + No problems with WiFi, no problems to stay longer in lounge after check-out + Silent street. No noise or smell from the restaurant.

- Little inconsistent staff behavior. One member was very nice and helpful, the other looked like I am bothering him. - The breakfast is rather boring. - Little bit out of town. Not far but out.

Very good

Bed was comfortable, bathroom was clean and roomy. Location convenient enough to walk into town.

There are only ~8 rooms in the hotel and the staff seemed to forget who we were every time we walked in the door. Breakfast was fine, convenient since it's just downstairs but not exceptional. Rooms were pretty hot, glad there was a fan in the room. There should be better parking instructions before check-in.

Great building with Fab Food & Service in a dingy setting

Very friendly/helpful staff. Food was superb, bathroom toiletries smelt amazing & shower was great. Their steaks are out of this world & cooked to perfection! 👌🏽 Worth visiting for the food alone. l even got a tiny fillet steak with the full English breakfast! 🤗

Thin ceilings made it pretty noisy as l heard footsteps overhead constantly thumping about. l disliked the bare wooden flooring that made it feel cold/ less cosy & l felt a sticky patch on floor underfoot which was disconcerting. l slept really badly because the radiator stayed on full heat all night so l woke up way too hot at 2 & 4am. There was an awful smell from drains coming up through the plughole in bathroom sink. It's a handsome building, but photos cleverly hide the dismal views of the streets it sits in.
