The room was very cramped, the bathroom shower stall was broken, and the location was very noisy.

5.0 / 10.0

Great hotel, very nice staff, amazing location, great service, quiet at night. Would definitely stay here again.

5.0 / 10.0

We had an excellent stay. Exceptional customer service. Centrally located. Highly recommend.

6.0 / 10.0

Rooms are dated. Location is great but that was what you are paying for, not a high quality nice room.

8.0 / 10.0

The location is wonderful but, the stairs were a bit daunting. The room heater was not working but the efficient space heater worked and the towel heater worked well

8.0 / 10.0

Yes clean and tidy, comfortable

3.0 / 10.0

Great location. Room very basic for the price

3.0 / 10.0

Staff were very nice. Good location if you want to be in the town centre of Oxford. Room was clean. Not 4 star in my opinion I'm afraid. Unfortunately for me the room was next to a main road and extremely noisy on a Saturday night. You will need earplugs on a weekend I think.

5.0 / 10.0

Friendly and efficient staff. Clean room and comfortable bed

2.0 / 10.0

There was no way of turning off the main light in the room, with the switches not working. When I reported this to reception they said the only way to deal with this was for me to use the switch on the fuse box each time I wanted to turn it on or off, which also involved me standing on a stool to do this, in the dark for half the time. I don't think this is an acceptable situation in a hotel room, and yet the hotel would not even consider any kind of reimbursement for this

8.0 / 10.0

Great location to city centre but lots of people noise outside and inside late into the night. Otherwise, fine for 1-2 nights.

Lovely big room spoilt by mould in the shower. Great situation on George Street with everything in walking distance

10.0 / 10.0

We had a great stay! The staff was friendly, the room clean, and great access to everything! It could get a little loud at night, but we were impressed with the sound proofing. In terms of service, my mom forgot her phone, and not only did they call right away, they raced to the train station to make sure we didn’t leave without it! I would definitely come back.

It is an old building on a busy street but location is good .

8.0 / 10.0

Such excellent staff and service. Very convenient location. Shops and restaurants right there. Noise from outside was awful on weekends. Basic but clean and comfortable.

3.0 / 10.0

The AC was good which was a nice change after the last 2 hotels where we could never get the rooms cool (and those were very nice hotels). And despite being on an active street it was super quiet. Our sheets has some stains on them. The shower didn't maintain temp and the drain seemed to be clogged a bit. After a short the shower, the bottom was almost overflowing.

10.0 / 10.0

The staff were very friendly, and we had a comfortable stay. The amenities were excellent as well. Since it’s on a street with many restaurants, the noise at night was a bit noticeable, but apart from that, I was very satisfied.

8.0 / 10.0

The hotel was spotless with good WiFi. In an excellent location . Close to bus station . Many good restaurants and shopping near by. The staff were extremely friendly and most helpful. Rooms are tiny but with very nice linensOnly negative was the 2 flights of steep stairs but staff was very willing to help with luggage.

Well positioned and comfortable.

Compact room, clean and with all you need for a one night stay. Very easy check in process and friendly member of staff. Very centrally located and street was a little noisy in the morning due to deliveries etc. but not a huge issue. Would stay here again 👍

My wife and I spent a night here at the end of July. We had asked for a room on the first floor, which we given. Check-in was quick and easy. The room, whilst small, had all the aminities necessary, including a kettle with branded tea and coffee, sugar and sweetners, sachets of milk in the mini fridge and two biscuits. There were also two cans of still water in the fridge. There was also a 32-inch flat-screen TV and Free WiFi which worked well.The bathroom toiletries were by L'Occitane and there were plenty of towels provided. The central location was excellent for seeing the city sights. It was only five minute walk to the bus station and a food market was just around the corner. I was particularly impressed by the amount of information provided by the hotel prior to our arrival, infrming me of ID to bring, local parking facilities, check-in time, etc. If we visit Oxford again I will certainly consider the Bocardo as my place to stay.

5.0 / 10.0

The staff was so accommodating. They went out of their way and that is important to us. The king sized bed was so comfortable. The location is perfect to reach everything. The only negative would be the lack of an elevator so you need to be comfortable climbing stairs.

3.0 / 10.0

This hotel was fine, a basic hotel. Clean and okay standard. There is no reception on the ground level. You have to carry your luggage up two stairs, as there is no elevator. The room was quite warm. After 10 p.m. you had to press the doorbell to get in. Also, they don't serve breakfast, so that was a minus for me.

Very friendly and accommodating staff. They have real AC which was much appreciated in the heat wave. Great central location.

4.0 / 10.0

When we first walked into the hallways, we thought they looked a bit like a dorm. But when we went into the room, we were impressed. Large rooms, well kept and clean. Our only issue was the A/C kept going off and we woke up hot. But the temps were around 30C and they might have been working too hard.

4.0 / 10.0

Staff was great. Room had a great street view with large windows. The location is perfect for site seeing and transportation. Restaurants, pubs, entertainment all next door.

3.0 / 10.0

Friendly and helpful staff, a fan was placed in my room before arrival which was considerate as this was the hottest day of the year so far. Amenities were fine, room included an ironing board and iron, small fridge, TV with great channel selection and lovely L'Occitane bathroom products. Linens and towels were clean. There were a few things that could be improved though - the air conditioning unit leaked when in use and long after use, and the bed had been pulled away from the wall to allow for the leak to drip onto the carpet (although some still did drip onto the duvet). Some items such as the TV remote and the iron weren't very clean. The toilet seat had fallen off one of its hinges and some of the bathroom tiles had large cracks in them. The sash windows could be opened, but there was no way of keeping them open without holding them. I'm used to small UK city centre hotel rooms but the room was extremely small for the amount paid - not great value for money. Bed was comfortable and I had a good night's sleep, plenty of hot water in the morning - overall satisfactory but a few things that could be improved.
