Everyone at the Old Black Horse was lovely, very friendly and very nice. But what they have to sell to you does not match their level. I stayed in the self catering apartment out back, past the bins, perhaps the same one as the previous reviewer?. The place smelled horrible and had most likely suffered at the hands of a... More

On the 22nd of September 2012, I stayed with my girlfriend in the Black Horse in Oxford. As there were no other rooms available, we took the family self catering apartment for the price of £125. On arrival we were shown to our room. It was cold and had a stagnant smell. None of the utilities were on, and over... More

Yes, it's an expensive place to stay, but so is everywhere else in Oxford and I would much rather stay in a cosy, well-located place like this than a chain hotel on the side of the motorway! This place has charming character and is just over the bridge from the centre of town. Despite being located in a pub I... More

My parents and I enjoyed our stay at this very conveniently located Pub B&B. The free on-site parking was excellent, the rooms full of character (loved the low ceilings and lots of dark wood), spacious and clean, the staff very friendly. The location is amazing, true walking distance from the centre of Oxford. Breakfast was ok. Overall, a good find!

We enjoyed this place. It is a geninely historic building (when in England...) in a great location just five minutes walk from central Oxford. However, if you're not interested in old buildings it is perhaps one to avoid as it has low ceilings (even my rather short girlfriend banged her head!) and cramped stairs and corridors. Despite being old the... More

Myself and a friend stayed for a 2 night break at the Old Black Horse. Having read some previous reviews, our expectations were on the low side. We couldn' t have been more wrong. The staff were extremely friendly and expecting us. The room was spotlessly clean with all the facilties we could want, on top of which, the towels... More

I dont really know where to start with this one. I have never been one to moan about something. I just take it on the chin and never go back again. However, whethe more I thought about it, I simply had to share to make sure that nobody else makes the same terrible mistake we did and ruins their bank... More

I rarely review hotels, so please trust this one. Some reviews of the Old Black Horse Inn have been harshly critical of small rooms and uncomfortable beds. Pay them no heed. They must all be from spoiled US tourists who don't understand the challenge of finding affordable accommodations close to the heart of Oxford. The Black Horse is right in... More
