This place is a dump. I checked in, to find windows missing from room, elctrical sockets hanging out of wall, wall paper hanging off, 1970's tv, bathroom and bed linning unclean. No smoke alarms fitted to rooms or fire escape instruction. The outside had rubbish lying around. The staff also looked to be drunk. I only stayed for 1hr and... More

Spent two excruciating nights at foxcombe lodge. Would have left but arrangements made from Australia. Staff were unfriendly and strange. Beds were awful. Rooms unclean and bathrooms black with mould. Toilet didn't flush in one room and shower didn't work in other room. Cheap curtains ensured rooms flooded with light at all times of day and night. Tvs from 1970s.... More

I have been to night clubs with less sticky carpets! No plugs in the sink. And a tv that was Broken on the wall... More

Stayed here twice. Tried a number of different hotels in Oxford. If u want first class service - go stay at the Randolph, and pay their prices. I loathe people who use this site, and write bad reviews. We are Oxford born and bred, and visit our son in Oxford now we live in a different County Paid double the... More

We were welcomed on our arrival and once settled, we were given a short tour of the dining room and the bars etc. although like many small... More

Avoid this hotel. It is a poor value for a run down place... Needs constant warm water and lots of remodeling. Manager seems to ignore obvious issues...if you want to stay in the area, seek other places

I took a single room. There wasn't a smoking/non smoking selection when I booked and I ended up in a room that stank of smoke. The bathroom had other people's hair on the floor. The waiter in the morning was glum and the cheapest possible breakfast was served, esp. The sausages. However it wasn't all bad.. I tried to email... More

Positives: Clean, comfortable rooms. Pleasant location and pleasant property. Quirky interior. The beds were particularly comfortable. Negatives Breakfast wasn't great, but not bad. Quite pricy (but I think that's the case with anywhere near Oxford, so not property specific). Family rooms above party venue. We stayed for a weekend break, and our rooms were very comfortable. We chose the property... More

This hotel is generally grubby and neglected. It needs major refurbishment. Lack of cleaning evident in room and ensuite. Unpleasant bedlinen. Uninspiring breakfast (dreadful cheap sausages). A very disappointing stay and poor value.
