Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Old Bank Hotel is often praised for its prime location right on High Street, making it easy to explore Oxford's attractions, including the colleges and the Radcliffe Camera. Many guests secured on-site parking, which is a definite plus in Oxford. The rooms are generally considered well-appointed and some offer truly special views; some guests, however, found their rooms could get quite hot. The Quod restaurant is a popular choice for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, offering a lively atmosphere and satisfying food, including a much-loved sourdough bread.

local tips parking space sky sports
I loved that the check-in team shared great local tips. Nothing was like too much trouble. i even forgot toothpaste, and they brought it right to my room. i could even watch sky sports right there in my room. i was also able to cast to the tv!
i booked a classic double room months in advance, but it felt barely larger than a small double. the extra money i paid really didn't seem worth it at all. the room was a bit of a letdown considering my expectations and the cost.
