Oxford Hotels near Mansfield College

Pros: The location was fantastic. The decor is incredible. The staff is very accommodating. The library inside the hotel (where you can order food and drinks) was also amazing. The beds were extremely comfortable.

Cons: It is a little hard to set the room temperature if you are used to seeing degrees in F, not C, but the staff is willing to help. The coffee machine in the room is very high quality but not easy to use if you are not used to it. Again, the staff is more than willing to help.

Pros: The whole process was a delight. The actual hotel is a dream in terms of its history and location. The staff weere very friendly and only too willing to help. The food menu was OK and the wine list very good.

Pros: The old bulding and the decoration. Excellent food.

Pros: The decor, the art on the walls and the overall decor and location were perfect. I do thinks its very expensive at 500 per night as this is what you would pay for a London hotel. The breakfast was Ok - not as good as I would expect however the drinks and snacks in the bar were excellent so overall I would recommend this to other travellers.

Pros: Unfortunately we only managed to stay one night in a first class hotel in the middle of Oxford. The hotel, room and facilities were of an exceptionally high standard and all members went out of their way to make us feel most welcome. We can not recommend this hotel highly enough.

Cons: Absolutely nothing.

Pros: The friendly staff and the comfortable good size room.

Cons: The food was good but rather overpriced and we would have preferred a buffet breakfast though foreign visitors may like the waiter service.

Pros: Great rooms, location, food and staff

Pros: Loved it

Pros: The sheets on the bed were the best we’ve ever slept on!

Cons: Nothing

Cons: The bed was terrible and the pillows were like cardboard

Pros: Nice lounge areas. Food portions generous and good quality.

Pros: Staff. Location great.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: The room was pleasant and well equipped. Bar and terrace areas were nice. Food was good. Best of all was the availability of parking.

Cons: No fridge in the room. I was quoted 40 pounds to extend my stay for 2 hours.

Pros: The location is excellent and has on site parking. Staff were very friendly and helpful. I was able to drop my car off early which was a big help. Room and clean and tidy and bed was comfy. I also felt the hotel was good value for being city centre.

Cons: Whilst the room was clean and tidy. I was disappointed to see torn wall paper by the window and quite a bit of paint work was chipped and needed refreshing. The lack of air was a down side. The hotel said 4 stars - I’d say the excellent hotel let itself down on the decor that needed attention. I would stay there again.

Pros: From the moment we walked in we knew this was a top notch hotel from the staff to the accomodation .brilliant stay . Will highly recommend.

Cons: Glad to say nothing.

Pros: Food was very good and hotel is located a reasonable (20minutes) walking distance to Oxford. Courtyard outside our room was nice to sit in. (This was important because the room was so small there was nowhere to sit except on the bed). Staff was friendly and responsive.

Cons: Room very small for the amount of money we paid - there was barely room to walk around the bed. Bathroom a bit outdated. Maybe all Oxford hotels are this expensive at this time of year but I expected more for the money.

Pros: Great location, easy parking, comfy bed

Cons: Breakfast wasn’t great, slow and uninteresting!

Pros: Beautiful building, very clean with a comfortable room.

Cons: Room was a bit warm and fan was hidden away.

Pros: The Cotswolds is a nice place to stay if you want to explore Oxford. Five minutes to St. Giles. Although next to Banbury Rd. the room was very quiet. Breakfast was fine and the service excellent. Their bar is a nice and cosy place.

Pros: All things are very good. There is very quiet the bar is very nice to take a rest.

Cons: When you feel tiere, the location of this hotel is a little bit far from the city center. But there is a very good transport of buses. It would be nice, if the staff tell custumers which numbers of buses you can take.

Pros: Quiet room on the top floor of the hotel. Lovely comfortable bed. Nice bathroom. Friendly helpful staff.

Cons: There was nothing we were unhappy with.

Pros: good atmosphere, helpful staff,good situation, quiet rooms, convenient parking andd straightforward billing arrangements.

Cons: dim economy bulbs and cheap plastic glasses in the bathroom.

Pros: I enjoyed the comfortable room, though rather small for a double. The location is very good, just 10 mins into town on foot and several restaurants/pubs within 100 yards. The staff were friendly and reasonably helpful.

Cons: The breakfast buffet was not too extensive. The cooked "full English" was unimaginative, the service slow, and unattentive, the food sometimes warm rather than hot...

Pros: Very comfortable room with good facilities

Pros: Location and nearness to labs and centre

Cons: Room 64 washbasin waste lever needs attention

Pros: Its closeness to the centre of the city, its old world charm, and particularly the reception staff who were extremely helpful

Pros: the car park and the fact that the room was fairly quiet.

Cons: the bathroom was very small and the extractor fan was extremely noisy.

Pros: very convenient location, pleasant surroundings, good breakfast

Cons: no

Cons: Breakfast too expensive

Pros: Beautifully designed rooms. Booked 2 rooms & were considerately allocated them next to each other & separate to the main building with further rooms. Loved the pub closed early so we could open windows on such a hot night.

Pros: Staff very helpful! Great location

Pros: The breakfast was excellent. The bottled water provided in the room was a nice touch. The bathroom was modernized.

Cons: Our room was overlooking the restaurant patio, we can hear the music from the restaurant and the people outside, smell their smoke. The music was loud enough that I can feel the floor vibrating. It was very warm and there's no air-conditioning therefore, we had to keep the window opened for cooler air. Our room also had a view of the busy bridge which had a lot of traffic. So overall not the most peaceful location. I'm sure there are other rooms that face the river which would be much better.

Pros: Everything. Staff and service are perfect, wonderful brekki. We came here for a special occasion in life，Head of river added more shine to this trip. Thank you!

Pros: The location was fine.

Cons: The rooms were small, and the staff unintereated and unprofessional.

Pros: Great location. Room small but nice.

Pros: Great location. Close access to Oxford university and shopping. Situated on banks of Thames river with a walking trail right next door. Room had old, quaint furnishings.

Cons: Hotel is part of a restaurant/pub. So lots of outside noise even till late at night. Room was a bit tiny and felt cramped with all the accessories. The smell of fish was strong from the restaurant forcing us to keep our windows shut tight.

Pros: Excellent location and food. Well placed on the Thames.

Cons: Loud, unpleasant music in the restaurant. In our room, 8, the window did not open and air conditioning had to be used, preventing a comfortable night's sleep. No enough hanging space for towels in the bathroom where there was little shelf space.

Pros: Breakfast perfect, beautiful place, quiet room in an chic modern / industrial / vintage british style... wonderful!

Cons: Pas de climatisation, no air conditionning

Pros: I liked the location

Cons: The room was extremely small. Nowhere to put suitcases even. Up many flights of stairs with no help with bags. Room was extremely hot. Very, very over priced for the room.

Pros: had a problem with the AC in our room staff went out of their way to help us and put us in another room

Cons: we liked everything

Cons: I left my earrings in the room. When I called the next day asking for it, the hotel said they did not find anything when doing the room clearance. This is quite a bad experiment as I had the same matter in previous trip in Paris and that great hotel sent it back to me by courier! Watch out your personal staffs when stay in this hotel. It makes me feel like it is not how Great Britain should be~ Pity~

Pros: Amazingly comfortable room with everything we needed to hand. Staff were al friendly and welcoming. Exactly what we needed for a relaxing summer break from the stress of work. We would definitely recommend it. We particularly enjoyed the central location close to the start of many walks and excursions with facilities in the spa which is also easy to access.

Cons: There wasn’t anything to not like.

Pros: excellent location in central Oxford, minutes away from historic colleges, the central market, and the bus station.

Cons: Rooms were small, extremely overheated and poorly ventilated. Old carpeting triggered allergies. Breakfast not included in the room price and very expensive ($30 for a continental buffet).

Pros: Location is very close to the heart of Oxford. It has the old 'grandeur' of a hotel that was probably top of its class in the past.

Cons: The hotel is run down. First room Air Conditioning did not work. They switched us to another room, but that was in the back, with loud noise from the back alley which has a Caribbean pub. If you like Caribbean music until midnight, you will love this hotel. Overall, it's an old stuffy hotel, with up-and-down wifi, limited selection for breakfast, and terribly slow elevators.

Pros: Location

Cons: Tony room, AC not working, over priced.

Pros: It is in an excellent location for visiting my daughter who is studying at Worcestor college.

Cons: We were in a room with heavy scaffolding blocking the entire two windows. Men were talking, yelling & working/pounding in front of the two windows every morning. They totally ignored us who needed sleeping in the room. There were no privacy nor courtesy. We were not informed or asked if it's Ok for the reception to assign such a downgraded room (the windows were blocked by scaffolding entirely)to us at check in either. The service and facilities were at most a one star hotel this time. I stayed in this hotel for about 5 times in the last two years because we were visiting our daughter who was studying at Worcestor college(one block away). They've been always about a three stars hotel standard. But this time was the worst. We will not use this hotel any more. It's totally not worth the price & the poor facility.

Pros: unfriendly people at reception. way overpriced. this is a 3 or max 4 star hotel.

Pros: Staff couldn’t have made us more welcome. Everything possible was done to make our stay perfect. The room was very well equipped and super comfortable. Breakfast was excellent!

Cons: Nothing could be improved.

Pros: The refrigerator was empty to allow personal contents and this was much appreciated Room service for ice was poor and it took over 20 minutes and 2 phone calls on both occasions Bed was very comfortable and air conditioning worked well Loathed the hangers in the wardrobe

Cons: The hanging system where there weren’t proper hangers ( very irritating as if travellers are going to steal large wooden hangers to add to their luggage !) Noise was easily transmitted from corridor and room above There was no top sheet which has become fashionable but is not ideal

Pros: Reception and Concierge staff were all very friendly and efficient. Room was very nice and a great temperature after a warm, sticky afternoon outside. Nice touch with the turn down service.

Cons: Not the end of the world but.... the restaurant staff were very slow in their service. Requests at breakfast were forgotten and never arrived (I did tell the manager overseeing as I left). At times there was not one member of the service team on the floor over lunch so no one to respond to any queries or needs. This needs improvement for a five star hotel.

Pros: Clean bedsheets and towels

Cons: Very small rooms for the price; You can't reach the reception directly; you basically have to go through hoops and being on hold before someone picks up; the staff are not quick in responding to issues or concerns. Wifi was really quite poor--it bounced off every five minutes.

Pros: Excellent kitchen for all meals. Wonderful included breakfast

Cons: Room quite cozy. Lighting very poor for reading. No wash cloths, few towels. Hair blower attached behind desk. Temperature very difficult to adjust.

Pros: Good location. Pleasant helpful staff. Comfortable air conditioned room

Cons: Towels in bathroom small and think. Housekeeping only adequate.

Pros: the staff was extra friendly and make us feel at home

Pros: Liked the white rolls at breakfast.

Cons: The fruit in the fruit salad had been left too large for easy eating. The new dining area was visually and physically uncomfortable. Too many different types of surfaces, paint colours, lighting, seating, plates for cooked breakfast were too large and side plates too small, none of the crockery matched, it all looked shabby and not what one would expect from a Mercure Hotel.

Pros: Staff was amazing, however, shower in room leaked into carpet so there was an odd smell.

Pros: The staff were excellent very friendly and helpful

Pros: Clean rooms

Cons: Uncomfortable bed No bottled water in rooms - at £156 for one night this was expected! No soundproofing - church bell opposite rings every 15 mins all the way throughout the night. Did not sleep at all! Very poor. Would not stay here again

Pros: Great city centre hotel with no pretensions and lovely rooms. Staff were nice, breakfast was perfect.

Cons: Late night bar was a bit expensive to be honest

Pros: Location.

Cons: We had to pay to use the car park and leave our keys with the staff in case they needed to move it in order to create more space for other cars. Breakfasts were crowded and one morning we were offered the coffee table to eat from. Evening meals were uninspired.

Pros: Perfect location.

Cons: The room is really small, it isn’t worth of money what paid for the night.

Pros: Location, Decor of the rooms, staff attitude

Cons: Expensive for the brand, facilities

Cons: Bedbugs! Stay in Sportsview for three weeks. At the beginning of the second week, the crazy rash started to appear on my body and face. I was confused by the reason: food, climate or medicines against flue which I took for one day only. I stopped taking medicines immediately, started the strict food diet and took antihistamines. Nothing helped for one week and then I went to the Emergency Clinic. The doctor prescribed more serious antihistamines. I took them for 5 days but the rash was the same. I became stressed and even was thinking to cancel my education and go back home for serious treatment because I couldn't find a reason. The rash was itching and I was obliged to wear jackets to cover the red body when the weather was +33! And then in 2 days before my departure, I found a bedbugS on my bed! I killed them and they exploded with blood. At that moment I realized that they were the reason for my rash for 2 weeks! They bit me for 2 weeks while I was sleeping at nights! The bedbugs are very small and it's just impossible to see them, especially when you come to the hotel at night and leave early in the morning. The managers proposed another room, but I was very stressed and couldn't sleep even in a new room. I asked to compensate money for 2 weeks period (since the rash started), showing the medical prescription, however, the owner refused to talk to me and the managers gave me a compensation only for the last 2 days (since that day when another room was provided). Now I continue the treatment in my country where several doctors and analysis confirmed the bites of the bedbugs! I was shocked by the attitude of staff and sanitary conditions of the guest house! The worst experience ever! Would never recommend staying if you or your beloved ones don't want to be bitten! THIS OPINION IS SOLELY MY OWN AND DO NOT EXPRESS THE VIEWS OR OPINIONS OF MY EMPLOYER OR THIRD PARTIES!

We were on the top floor in the eves so quite low ceilings but well kept and clean.

Cons: Reception facility poor.
