For a wonderful old house everything was clean and easy. Room was very comfortable and quiet. We were able to park on the property and walked about 1/2 mile to dinner in the evening. Felt fairly safe walking back at 8pm.

The Osney Arms is a terrific place from which to explore Oxford. The rooms are small but quiet, clean, comfortable and have everything you would need. The breakfast is outstanding, with many healthy options and thoughtful touches. The guest house is also just a 15-minute walk from the train station. While the manager isn't on site, he replies quickly to any questions. I enjoyed my stay and found it an excellent value.

I loved the easy check-in process at the Osney Arms. The location is great, close to the train station. Our room and the bathroom were both clean and perfect. We especially liked the breakfast options in the dining room, along with the espresso machine. I would definitely stay here again!

Great value

For the price it was excellent. Room was as good as any hotel. It’s not luxury but it’s great value. I stayed two nights while dropping a child off at university. The location is excellent only 5 mins walk into town centre.

Older accommodation but the rooms are spacious, clean and comfortable. The breakfast is self service but there is a really good selection of different items, various kinds of tea and a great coffee maker. We would definitely stay there again.

Liked: Cleanliness
An ideal property if you want to be close to Oxford centre. Currently not helped by all the roadworks nearby, though that is not the fault of the hotel. Bedrooms and communal areas were very clean. Breakfast was a bit on the hostel side of things, though perfectly adequate. Wifi strength good. All in all decent value for money.
