Hotels Near The Old Power Station in Oxford

The first person we fell in love is the manager Daniel Kiss. even we have never got a chance to meet him in person. Very pleasant and helpful with booking our stay. Always replied our email promptly. The second person is his colleague. It’s a shame we never got his name. Very helpful and friendly upon check in. Love smiling ☺️. Helped us retrieve key and open the door to our hotel. The room is very big and clean. It has everything you need inside the room. Even microwave. Plates and utensils. Bathroom is very clean. We stayed at the main floor. Not noisy even our room is facing main road. There’s a bus stop just right in front of the hotel. My husband and I enjoy walking. So We walked all the way to the city center and basically walk as far as our legs can take us. We will definitely go back again and highly recommended. Shame I don’t have any photos of the hotel.

The hotel is located in a convenient location where we can easily commute around the city centre and the Bicester village. Sadia was really nice and helpful. She greeted us with a warm welcome. Rooms were quite small but they are clean and tidy. Overall, it was a great time staying at the hotel.

Returned from 4 night stay at Hawkwell House Hotel and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. To begin with I booked direct with the hotel, not wanting the corporate Mecure website and got exactly what I wanted... great customer service. Chavi was extremely helpful. The hotel itself is well situated, about 10-15 minutes on bus to Oxford City Centre (stop on Iffley turn). The hotel was clean, staff friendly, food good for both breakfast (good choice) and evening. We ate in the bar twice. Only a couple of possible notes of potential improvement. It would be handy to have a note in the room to remind guests of meal times (breakfast). I realise most paper was removed under Covid but there was an Oxfordshire brochure. Perhaps something to program into the TV? Similar to another review, a water pump type noise would come on in our room in the early hours of the morning. This sounded like the air con/heater and whilst not major it may need investigating. It's similar to work's and we didn't need to use anyway but perhaps instructions may be beneficial for guests? Overall thoroughly enjoyed our stay and if ever Oxford way again would definitely come back! Thank you.

Stayed with 3 friends for one night whilst attending a concert. All of us thoroughly enjoyed our stay and couldn't find fault with anything. The hospitality was spot on, the lovely gentleman that greeted us was so pleasant, the 3 bed room was perfectly suited to our needs and the beds so comfortable, we all had a great nights sleep. We sat outside in the sunshine for breakfast and what a treat that was, all freshly prepared and cooked to perfection. We will be returning at some stage. Great hotel, great staff and wonderful food.

Quiet, clean, good price. Could possibly do with a refurb but everything works well. Bed was comfy but squeaky. Great value for money, great for exploring Oxford and just somewhere to sleep. Lots of shops nearby. Would be an hour walk to the centre of Oxford but we just got a taxi which was £11. There was also a bus.

I required somewhere to stay that would be local to an early appointment that i had on Monday 13th November. Having searched local B&B's etc and checked out a number of reviews The Conifers Guest House appeared to fit the bill. The booking was through *********** and once confirmed i was also advised that my room on the day had been upgraded. The room was ground floor to rear of the main property namely Number 10. Unfortunately the room central heating did not work and hot water took an age to come through. The room upgrade was in fact what i would call a family room with a single and double bed plus a kitchenette so all in all large enough for a single person stay. The only heating i could find was that of a small oil filled radiator and took some hours to warm the room up. Unfortunately the toilet and shower cubicle room was very cold. The room overall requires updating at best but as a single man staying just one night it was just about tolerable. If this was a free upgrade it leaves me wondering what was i upgraded from ???

The bed was really uncomfortable. It's a cheap bed with springs that you can feel and when any of you move it disturbs the other as the bed shakes. I would have thought this hotel would have better quality mattresses, id rather stay in a travel lodge next time

We stayed for two evenings in May to visit Blenheim palace. We had two rooms, both superior, one on the first floor of the pub and one leading out to the front. Both rooms were beautiful; the one outside had very low ceilings and beams (ok for us as we’re not tall), with a big clawfoot bath and a walk in wardrobe. It also had the most stunning fireplace that backs on to the one in the pub. The other room had a huge 6ft bed and a very big walk in shower. Both were incredibly comfortable and we slept well both nights. We ate at the pub both evenings; the first night a young chap was managing the restaurant, he and the team did a phenomenal job. The service and the food was superb. He second evening we shared the steak (we had two between the four of us) and it was amazing. Again the food and service was fabulous. On the Saturday we were the only ones eating breakfast, the service was prompt and the food delicious. However the breakfast on the Sunday was an absolute disaster; the chap who seated us (I didn’t catch his name but he had an overseas accent) took our order and then we waited…. We waited and waited as he seated others, took their orders and their breakfasts came while we waited. The room wasn’t full, there were about 5 other tables seated (and he walked past us several times and looked at the table). When we asked him, he blamed the kitchen then went to find out what had happened. He came back and apologised and said it would be with us shortly (to be clear, two of us were only having toast!) only for us to have to chase again. An hour had gone by and we still had no breakfast (every other table had come and gone by then. After chasing a second time, he brought out one cooked breakfast (with the wrong eggs) and an omelette (the other order was for poached eggs on toast), oh and then the toast! We explained this was wrong so he blamed the kitchen again and then said he’d get them to make poached eggs but we said we’d rather not have rushed poached eggs (and to be honest it had been over an hour, we had to get off). There was an almighty row going on between him and the kitchen (I imagine the order simply hadn’t made it and then he’d guessed). We were gutted, it had been such a lovely stay with two fabulous meals and great service and it ended like that. We were told that a guest had a flat battery and they were trying to help out with that, but to me there’s no excitement for that level of service in a breakfast room where only 5 tables have taken breakfast. When I checked out he apologised it did not make eye contact. I really wanted to be writing a positive review and like I said the majority of the stay was super, to the point we’d discussed returning g. However that wouldn’t happen now, which is a shame.

Wonderful hotel just 3 min drive from Bicester village . Breakfast is poor for Muslim Family but still included in the price. We were lucky to be here with some 65 pounds for 3 people but 25£ for a dog charge. Clean , nice staff, good amenities.

We stayed here the night before the weekend over the Friday bank holiday for two nights. It was perfect and so remote. Idyllic ally it is a beautiful place and we had amazing weather. The room was deluxe and services throughout the hotel was exceptional. The staff were friendly and helpful at all times, and we were demanding. This hotel would be a perfect place to get away too and close to Bicester Village.
