Really nice accommodation. Clean, comfortable, and handy location. Numerous buses go to centre of Oxford and 13 min walk to eateries n shops in Headington. Several nice pubs. Staff at Conifers lovely and go that extra mile to help. Sorted out a taxi for us when we needed one urgently and got them to prioritise us. They were great. They also do breakfast. It is basic, but tasty Will be stopping here lots over next 18 months until our son finishes his medical degree. Reasonably priced for Oxford. I recommend đź‘Ś

Nice and clean, a little basic but just right for a night or two. Terrible water pressure once people start to get up however!

My Conifers Guest House stay was very good indeed. From a friendly early check in, to breakfast at only ÂŁ10, but with plenty to eat and hot food options too. Room 11 was large and quiet. It was also well equipped with fridge, microwave plus plates, cutlery, kettle, tea/coffee and milk provided. There was even stuff to wash up with. The wi-fi was good and strong and I had no problems working on my laptop there one day.
If I did have a minor criticism, it would be that when asked if I required the room cleaning on the day I was working, I said no thanks, but I did want some more milk cartons, they never arrived, nor was I told they weren't available. But in the big scheme of things, it's hardly worth worrying about.

After using hotels.com to inform conifers we would be arriving fairly late they still rang and emailed wanting a time which I couldn’t give exactly. The room and bathroom were very clean and well presented overall.The person that greeted us was very friendly. It is close to the hospital which was great. The bed was fairly comfortable. The bathroom door handle creaked so loudly it was awful. The toilet lid closed when you sat down so was resting on your back. The bathroom window didn’t have a blind so I felt very exposed and uncomfortable when it was dark and the light was on. There were no hooks or anywhere to hang towels. And we couldn’t have breakfast with them as they don’t take card payments. It was fine at conifers for the price and for our needs. Just feel a few things need addressing.

I was there for a 2-day conference in a university building 10-15 walking distance. The room was good size, bed and pillows were good. Breakfast was good, but not a lot of options, remember to book in advance, I could only get it for 1 day of my stay because of that. The shower was acceptable, but low pressure.

**Evaluation of The Oxford Retreat Guest House**
The Guest House, located just outside of Oxford, is exceptionally clean and cosy, providing a welcoming family atmosphere. The service was great, with very friendly and attentive owners. It's easy to reach the city center by public transportation, and made it a convenient, affordable and a good choice for us.

The sound proofing was not of a good standard on the second floor.
5.0 / 10.0
All-round as expected. Only criticisms are; curtains are too transparent, so the room is v.light, v.early in Summer, and, shower floor was extremely slippery and needs some 'slip-grip'/friction strips or removable anti-slip mat.

Very clean and comfortable. Staff very polite and helpful.

Basic guesthouse accommodation. Comfortable for a single night. Shower head very weak, and bathroom needs more light. Breakfast basic but good.

We stayed overnight to be close to the Nuffield Orthopaedic Centre where my wife was booked for surgery. Couldn't find any fault from our arrival to departure.

Our stay was pleasant, friendly staff and shower was amazing, however there were stains on the bedding and could have done with a small fridge in the room but it served a purpose with Hubby in John Radcliffe.

I know that its cost is much more better than a hotel however it’s very far from the center of Oxford. I needed to get a taxi because of cold weather. So the total cost is equal if I would have preferred a hotel. Additionally the radiator wasn’t working at midnight and I needed to use additional electric heater (there is one in the room). I wish the natural gas radiator was working because of the extremely cold weather. But the greeter was kind. FYI, you need to check in until 6 pm if you go there on Saturday. I knew that check in must be until 9 pm as the website indicated. But it’s not. Thanks

Staff were bery helpful and friendly. There was free parking at the property and next door so we had no issues parking. However the shower had very weak water pressure and was really stiff so we coudn't adjust the head. Also the floor boards in the room uosators were very loud sp every time the people upstairs were moving around it would wake us up. Apart form that the stay was nice but we didnt sleep well because of the noisy floorboards, but the area itself was quite.

The single room is just a bit too small. There is not a common area as the breakfast room gets locked after breakfast. There were some heavy decorations work in a room setting off the fire alarm. The place is spotless!!!
The central heating only gets turned on at specific times. There was a small oil electric heater to use but the toilet is freezing at night time.
All in all, good value for money

The hotel is good everything is clean.
For breakfast you have to call them one day in advance if you want breakfast.
They only major issue is that they turned off the heat during the night, and it was a bit cold, there is an electric oil filled heater though, but it didn’t heat very well.

Great little hotel in Headington. Clean and tidy, comfortable beds , soft linen , warm heating . Helpful staff and free off road parking too.
Only negative was the hot tap on the bath was broken , we turned it on and then it would not turn off. We had to fiddle with it for a while to get it to stop. Needs replacing.

At night, guest house staff will turn off the heating pipe, you are in cold room when wake up to toilet. And far from place u wan to go eating or Jalan Jalan ( around 1pm walk distance). If more than 50ÂŁ/night, definitely not worth to it, take note, pals. Happy tour, happy travel holiday!

My stay was fine; luckily my room was at the back and therefore quiet. The owners/staff were very friendly. My loo seat kept coming off, but the owner said they will fix it.
The bus stop was very close, which was good. Beware of Oxford traffic and plan plenty of time for the journey into the centre.

We had what would appear to be a family room in the annexe to the rear. Good beds, Small kitchenette area with table and chairs for four. Sizeable shower / w.c. room. We did not partake of the breakfast, which was at extra cost.
On site / adjacent parking for about 9 cars, although it might be tight for chunkier cars.
Overall perfectly acceptable accommodation.
I did think the administration a little over the top including on-line registration before arriving.

My room (a triple) was at the back with its own front door. Nice and clean, comfortable beds and nice to have a fridge, microwave, toaster and kettle and very generous tea,coffee and milk supplies.

Very friendly and helpful. Very clean and tidy, breakfast was good. The chairs though were a little uncomfortable.
The toilet seat in my room needed to be fixed, it was a little loose. I would stay there again happily.

Quick entry & check-in. Some confusion about inclusion of breakfast. No elevator so had to carry our bags up 2 flights of narrow stairs. Only took in our carry-on luggage. Comfortable bed & amenities we needed.

Solo American traveler on a budget. This hotel was perfect for me. Clean, fairly spacious room and friendly staff. Only downside is the doors are thin, so I could hear every person on my floor entering/exiting their rooms. Would recommend if staying in the Oxford area!

Great place to stay at Oxford. Extremely helpful and kind staff and management. very comfortable bed. bus to the city centre just a block away. Particularly recommend the Double Studio room with kitchenette - a real steal🤗

We stayed for one night and had everything we needed. The bedroom was comfortable and the bathroom was clean.
The breakfast in the morning was great, a large selection to choose from with the buffet and your choice of toast with eggs or beans if you want it.
Overall a very pleasant stay.
