Had an unexpected stay in Oxford.for a night and was able to book the River Hotel last minute. This was perfect for a night stay. Clean cozy room. We had to leave early the next morning missing the includes breakfast. The staff left us a togo breakfast in the self serve bar. Very kind and thoughful.

I had a class at Saïd and it was a short walk to class every day. The staff are amazing! Very kind. The full English breakfast was excellent.

8.0 / 10.0

Very nicely kept "homey" place to stay. More like a B&B than hotel. Great fresh, made to order breakfast each morning .Really good staff (came back in after midnight to get suitcases airline had misdirected.) No a/c, but opening windows helped keep it cool at night. No elevator. Rooms on 2nd and 3rd floors. Road construction nearby means a little longer walk to downtown, but were told in advance.

8.0 / 10.0

A nice hotel with good breakfast and friendly personnel nearby the center of Oxford. I had a good chamber and a good bed. The only thing I didn't like was that the windows could not open. But there was a fan and that was nice.

a great find! Despite the roadworks this hotel was quiet and very conveniently located for the new theatre. We even managed two different circular walks along the canals and rivers in different directions from the hotel. Parking was included as well as a great breakfast. would definately stay again!

8.0 / 10.0

Great location (except current closure of bridge makes a taxi journey back from city at night expensive). Lovely owner and staff. Great, and generous, selection of breakfasts. Rooms comfortable and everything you need but could do with updating.

4.0 / 10.0

The standout features of this hotel were the friendly welcome and helpfulness of the staff, the breakfast which included a choice of kippers, the view of the Thames from the dining room (I watched an angler catching a fish from the opposite bank and swans and ducks were swimming on the river), the honesty bar and there was a teapot in my room with the tea and coffee and biscuits which I really appreciated. The best of British hospitality and a comfortable cosy room made up for no lift and older facilities, all of which worked well.

4.0 / 10.0

Great location, clean, comfortable, lovely staff. Slightly dated, in need of modernising.

2.0 / 10.0

The heater was virtually not working. We made a complaint but that did not change anything. We could not sleep because the room was very cold throughout.

10.0 / 10.0

A wonderful old house on the river. Convenient parking and close to downtown.

8.0 / 10.0

I recently stayed at this hotel and was impressed by its excellent location, close to the station and incredibly convenient to explore Oxford. The staff were attentive, friendly, and always ready to offer valuable advice on the best things to see and do in the city. Breakfast was a highlight, especially while enjoying views of the river and garden. Overall it was an enjoyable stay in Oxford.

4.0 / 10.0

It was a very nice stay. The staff were very helpful, especially Julian. He did so much for us. And breakfast was tasty and hot.

3.0 / 10.0

Staff are very friendly and cook you aspecialised. breakfast. Very centrally located, but lots of road works so frustrating to go in and out of hotel if you plan to use a car to get to the hotel or get about. Hotel probably has not had an upgrade since i950 so expect to see outated carpets, chairs, bathroom and stairs. Hotwater needs to run for 5 minutes before hot water comes through. Old world charm with honesty system bar.

10.0 / 10.0

Clean, comfortable and friendly! Close to transportation and a 10min walk to the city center. Breakfast was wonderful! Lovely little sitting room stocked with drinks and snacks was an added bonus. Would definitely stay there again.

8.0 / 10.0

Old rooms and our room was at the streetside, quite noisy at night, but we liked it anyway because of the friendly reception, parking behind the hotel, walking distance to the city centre, good breakfast.

4.0 / 10.0

Excellent service and friendly helpful staff. Excellent location, right next to the train station, plenty of free parking. Hotel was clean and warm despite it being freezing. Our room didn’t have an en suite and had to access our private bathroom across the corridor. Room was cosy, a little old fashion in decor but added to the charm. I would definitely return and recommend.

5.0 / 10.0

The River turned out to be just what we needed when visiting the city to see a concert. The location was great as you don’t need a car to get around Oxford, so you can use their free car park and walk ten minutes to the actual city centre. The large building has a lot of character and the breakfast room was delightful, with windows looking out towards the river. There was a good cooked breakfast plus we could have chosen cold items, cereals etc. The bedroom was older style yet was very comfortable with modern conveniences. The staff were pleasant and helpful. I wouldn’t hesitate to book the River Hotel again if I return to Oxford. Because of the lack of a lift and the steps to the front and rear of the hotel, it wouldn’t be suitable for people with serious mobility issues, but for others I would highly recommend staying there.

8.0 / 10.0

Very quaint cosy hotel by the river, walkable to everywhere , right across Oxford train station , amazing , cosy, clean room , perfect English breakfast, a gem in Oxford . Love it!!

Pleasent stay in this small hotel nearby Train station and short walk to city. Stayed once before and still as enjoyable. Nice cooked to order breakfast. Has everything you need there with friendly staff. Their motto is: Large enough to be comfortable.. Small enough to be friendly..

two night stay in oxford. Great location for train travel. The hotel was very clean and tidy. Breakfast area was very clean and tidy also .Staff were very attentive . The only problem was lack of air conditioning during heatwave.

10.0 / 10.0

The River Hotel was a quaint and lovely place for the three of us! The breakfast was delicious! Our only problems came when 1. We got locked out of the hotel by accident because their receptionist is not available around the clock. And 2. We did not receive maid service or get clean towels. But when we asked for them, the situation was quickly rectified. Ella at the front desk made some excellent recommendations for places to eat. We really appreciated her expertise and kindness. We felt like we were staying in a fairytale cottage. The construction on the bridge was a minor inconvenience, but it was wonderfully easy to walk to the city center.

4.0 / 10.0

When we were visiting Oxford, I was reading Dorothy Sayer’s “Gaudy Night”, as one does, and this hotel felt very much like coming out of the book. Yes, most of its furnishings would work very well in that time (including horrible only-hot/only-cold taps), but the service was always like from non-corporeal profit-optimizing times. Very friendly, very human approach. And yes, concerning cleanliness, everything was standard and clean.
