Top Balliol College Hotel Reviews

The Bocardo Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I had a wonderful stay at the Bocardo Hotel in Oxford. This charming, family-run hotel is perfectly located right in the heart of the city, making it an ideal base for exploring everything Oxford has to offer. My room was much larger than I expected and featured a spacious king-size bed (by US standards), making for a very comfortable stay. The staff were exceptionally friendly and welcoming throughout my visit. They even kindly allowed me a late checkout, which meant I could avoid spending extra time waiting at the train station—a thoughtful gesture that I really appreciated. If you’re planning a trip to Oxford, I’d highly recommend the Bocardo Hotel. Not only is it a great place to stay, but you’ll also be supporting a local family-run business that clearly takes pride in looking after its guests."

Old Bank Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"We had the pleasure of staying at the Old Bank Hotel for several days, and I cannot imagine a better place to stay in Oxford. The location is unbeatable—right in the heart of the city and within walking distance of everything. What truly makes this hotel exceptional, however, is its people. Every member of the team was warm, welcoming, engaging, and genuinely happy to help. A special thank you to Grace, who runs an exceptional hotel. She makes every request seem effortless and never like an inconvenience. Before we arrived, the hotel kindly accepted several parcels for us, and everything was perfectly organized. The front desk team, especially Ariel, was outstanding. Everyone was knowledgeable, patient, and always willing to help with recommendations, directions, or any questions we had. The thoughtful touches made our stay even more special. The complimentary minibar water was replenished daily, the large bottles left during turndown service were a wonderful surprise, and the heated bathroom floors were a luxury we appreciated every day. Dinner at Quod was excellent. The food was delicious, and Vanessa, our server, was charming, witty, and attentive. The hostess was equally welcoming and made for a wonderful evening. The Old Bank Hotel truly understands hospitality. We highly recommend it and cannot wait to return."

Westgate Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Despite the construction/roadwork being done outside, the room was quiet at night. No air conditioning but the shades and fan made the room comfortable for sleeping. There is a lovely garden out back where we sat for breakfast. Less than 1 block from rail station and a very easy walk to downtown Oxford. We were able to leave luggage there much of our last day while we continued to explore the town. It was very handy to then walk to the train and head to the next destination"

Linton Lodge Hotel, BW Signature Collection

8/10 Good

"The staff were very helpful and parking was a breeze! Our room was snug, comfortable, and quiet. It's hard for our family of 4 to enjoy sharing a room, but this was a great spot! The location is great for walking to City Center and avoiding the congestion fees. Some might find the walk too far and although we didn't take the bus, it would have been easy because there were a ton of stops heading into City Center."
