Lovely hotel in very central location. Was a bit worried about noise but it was fine in the end during the night. Moved rooms to have a separate bathroom and lovely host gave us a bottle of wine and some earplugs in case of noise. Highly recommend the No.1 Ship Street restaurant nearby!
Finding a quiet room in the centre of Oxford was a real find. The room was spacious, well equipped with heaters, heated towel racks, ironing board etc. and the staff was super even moving our luggage up to our room for us. It would have been a challenge to navigate the stairs with mobility issues. Absolutely top notch stay.
Good, convenient hotel. Only issue I had was that the first room I was given was occuppied, I opened the door and backed out very quickly.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Property is defintely lacking in maintenance ( certainly the room I stayed in), with water dripping from the floor above in the bathroom area. The bathroom door also seems broken and ignored. Definitely overpriced for the poor state of facilities.
The staff were wonderful and helpful. Construction/scaffolding right outside our room. Late night noise on the street into early morning hours. Woke up to no water one day.
Vanbrugh House is always very generous with its upgrades for VIP members. A magnificent property. Cannot recommend this property more highly. Outstanding staff, especially at reception.
