Truly excellent hotel with fantastic service. Food was best I have had in a hotel for years. Room was small but very well appointed and spotless. This is probably one of the best hotels to stay in Oxford. Well located, just a short walk to the city center.

We had a wonderful two night stay at the Black Boy. Both rooms were clean and had everything we needed; comfy beds, coffee/tea and friendly staff. We enjoyed a full English breakfast (not included in the room price) and a lovely dinner. The food was excellent. We were lucky to secure a parking spot right in front of the Inn; be aware that parking is limited. This was a perfect place to stay and explore Oxford; the neighborhood was quiet and away from the busy city. We enjoyed a walk after dinner...

The friendly front desk staff helped us with our luggage, helped us find our way around Oxford, and helped with our departure day dilemma as well. The room was spacious, clean, and very simple, and included all the amenities. Interestingly, the room and the bathroom both had skylights, which we didn't know could be covered with the touch of a button (instructions when checking in would have been helpful, a tiny quibble.) The layout is interesting; our room was across the street from the main...
