Top University College Hotel Reviews

Malmaison Oxford

10/10 Excellent

"Great location and a great hotel "

Tower House

10/10 Excellent

"Excellent communication & check in. Lovely warm spacious room, ensuite shower room/toilet with shower gel. Very comfortable bed and space to sit in front of TV. Smart TV, kettle & tea/coffee/hot chocolate provided (+milk& sugar). Lovely quiet street, very peaceful amongst the old buildings and looking across to one of the college gardens. Lots of interesting places to walk to within 5 minutes, colleges, museums and also many lovely restaurants and cafes nearby. I didn't have time to walk to the river but that looks lovely & there are boat trips."

Hotels near other University College attractions

Quite symmetrical. This was taken while I was taking a casual stroll through Oxford. It was quite busy although school was out at the time. Beautiful grounds! Oxford is only an hr or so from London and is so worth a day trip.

The Queen's College

Take a campus tour or just explore the area of The Queen's College, during your trip to Oxford. While you're in the area, stroll along the riverfront.
