We stayed at the Head of the river hotel in a standard room that was clean, well decorated and very comfortable, the staffs were excellent and the location is great this is the best place to eat and drink when the sun is shining, also free parking which is a bonus in any city. We plan to return to Oxford... more

Booked this through website laterooms.com - only problem we had was the directions which were incorrect on two counts. They seemed to be geared to people travelling from London rather than the North. However when we eventually got there it was worth the wait. If you use this website navigate yourself using the map and ignore the written instructions. The... more

Stayed here while visiting my sister at Hertford College. Very convenient for us since her apartment was across the canal from pub. Good location to downtown and sites, bus lines, walks and gardens. Food so-so, room clean although lacking in personality. Tiny wc. Pretty quiet considering it was a pub. Although they have about 6 car spaces in rear, it... more

Stayed for 2 nights end September. Friendly, helpful staff. Breakfast good (juice, cereal, “full English” fry-up). We ate in the pub our first evening: OK, but nothing out of the ordinary. (2nd evening we ate at an Indian restaurant called Chutney’s on St Michaels St, which was very good.) The pub's rooms are well-furnished, very clean, and the bed was... more

Yes, the Pub is on the river, but it also faces St Aldates, the extremely busy main road into and out of Oxford. We were allocated a room facing the road (overlooking the patio). Because of the unceasing traffic noise... more

This is a terrific small hotel above a pub right on the river in Oxford. The pub is a popular pub with the locals that has a large outside table area right on the river. The pub has a lot of charm and the food was very good. We were concerned that there would be a problem with the pub... more

Check in was a bit slow but that I think was because it was a very busy afternoon for the pub - staff was really nice especially the landlady. I was amazed by the room we got as it had a great view of the river, was a good size and was surprisingly quiet even though we were near a... more

Me and my boyfriend wanted to spend a couples of days/1night in Oxford as both have never been before. We wanted a nice place to base ourselves so we could explore the city and this place was defo top marks. It was easy to find, good location,sorted out a car park space on its grounds when we requested and was... more

Stayed for one night - great location, right on the river. Really nice rooms, bed was very comfortable. Shower room clean and spacious, tea and coffee making facilities, free parking, 5 minutes walk from town, full english breakfast. I thought it was great value for a central hotel. Didn't eat lunch or dinner in the pub but food looked pretty... more
