Excellent stay. The family room we stayed in was huge !!! Nice little separate area for the kids to sleep in yet still in the same room so we didn’t have to worry about them at the same time as them having a little privacy. Breakfast was delicious and plentiful.

Great base from which to experience Oxford
We loved the Holt and will certainly be back. The beds are bit firmer than we like, but that's a matter of taste. Everything else was picture perfect - Samuel behind the bar is knowledgeable and friendly, and the restaurant food is exquisite!

We had a good stay at the hotel. The place is going through a refurb at the moment and after our first room didn’t quite meet expectations, the promptly moved us to the new part of the hotel that was lovely. The evening meal and breakfast were excellent and the staff were very friendly and helpful.

Location was spot on
The hotel was a perfect location and the room was clean & spacious. Great parking and easy to find. The food at the hotel was ok, my fish and chips was sadly lacking fish & a taste. However my better half had pork shoulder that she really enjoyed. My own problem was the doors to the room never cut out any noise. The door slamming though out the night in the opposite room, over & over again. The loud talking in the corridor outside our room well into the early hours.
