Hawkwell House Hotel - Οξφόρδη

The hotel is located in a very nice area of oxford and just 10 min from city center by bus. It is really quiet and my room was really romantic and big. I spent a lovely night there.

Although our room was a little dated the bed was very comfortable. The breakfast was really good too. The hotel is not in the centre of town so a little inconvenient in that respect. I think perhaps a little overpriced for what it was.

Located definitely beyond town limits, although bus connection is convenient. Country-style settings, simple and somewhat charming. Lovely river nearby, with an old lock and trails. Taxicab to and from Oxford is about 8 pounds.

The hotel is conveniently located near the 3 and 4 bus lines into downtown Oxford, only a 5min walk to these. The staff is VERY good, and were eager to meet our every request. However, the rooms can be very loud if the guests above you tend to make alot of noise. More specifically, although the Elm House has been renovated, the basic structure is the original building and so the floors are creaky and thin. My girlfriend and I are in our late 20s, so we're not too picky about these things. But we just couldn't sleep well for several nights because the guests above had a young energetic child. Also, the buffet breakfast (which was included) was not very good. Quite bland. We stopped eating there after the second morning because it was basically the same stuff each day.

This hotel while not central located to oxford, does have a bus stop 2 blocks away which will take you to the City Center. The hotel staff was very helpful, my girlfriend feel ill while on the trip and seemingly the entire staff was made aware about it and made sure we had everything we needed at all times. Breakfast is included and can be delivered for a small fee. If the above doesn't convince you to stay here, they have tempurpedic beds, i slept great!

Based on reviews left about Hawkswell House, I really wasn't sure what we were going to get. Some said how good the hotel was, others how bad the service was. I would just like to say what a fantastic job the receptionist was doing when we arrived. She was obviously extremely busy and running the front of house single handedly. This did not stop her from being anything but polite and courteous however. She was so very helpful. The rooms were great, just the right size with everything you could need. The bed was one of the most comfortable hotel beds I have ever slept in! The only two things that could have improved the stay were better water temperature adjustment in the shower (you either had it quite hot or luke warm, no inbetween), and the selection at breakfast (there were no eggs left by the time we got down to eat). Other than this, for what we paid, I think we were extremely lucky.

Hawkwell house is a great hotel for a weekend getaway. I would not recommend it if you have never been to oxford before since it is not in the city center. It is very romantic and had a great breakfast. Overall, stay here if you want a great room for a great price and don't mind a few minute ride to all the sights!

We stayed in this hotel for 3 nights in the end of january. Our room 406 was in one of the sub-buildings quiet and very comfortable, with all facilities. The hotel is a little out of the centre but a busstop is at 5 mins walk. Very helpfull staff and great breakfast.

I booked this hotel for a Birthday treat for my sister and I and our other halves, and it was great for what we needed. One of the rooms was not ready when we checked in at 2pm, but as I had booked two rooms this was not a problem, although I suspect it would be an issue in other circumstances- especially as it is after the alloted check-in time. The rooms were comfortable and clean. Our rooms had memory foam beds which were definitely an added bonus! The bar in the hotel was great, very comfortable and with a few different places to sit, the bar staff were also very pleasant, although the drinks were rather expensive! The only downside of the stay was the breakfast. It was a English breakfast buffet which was totally inedible, the crowning glory was the scrambled eggs that looked like a grey porridge. The staff in the restaurant also seemed as though they did not want to be there and were not at all helpful, when they collected our still full plates they did not even bat an eyelid- obviously something they're used to. It was a really disappointing end to our stay. I would only recommend this hotel if you didn't want to eat breakfast, as aside from that it's lovely.

Overall a nice hotel and facilities. When we were there at the weekend near Christmas there was a large party and the hotel ran out of food at breakfast and didnt seem to have enough staff around.

The hotel was very very average! The decor of the halls etc is dated and naff. The room was a little better but basic and the bathroom was dated and a little tired looking. The highlight of the stay was the bed, which was incredably comfortable. In the morning, our room had no hot water and after calling reception three times, they finally confirmed we would not be getting any hot water that day! They then suggested I used a room two floors down in order to shower and start my day. Basically, the hotel is cheap and average! You get what you pay for and thats not a lot!

We went to a wedding in Oxford and stayed in The Hawkwell hotel for one night. The staff on reception were friendly, the room was lovely and clean and the best part was ordering breakfast which was bought up to our room in the morning ...just what you need after a night out!

The hotel and room were quite luxurious, but let down by one or two details. Neither of the plugs in the bathroom drained properly, and the windows didn't fit well so there were some drafts. Having the breakfast tables relaid for dinner around us on our first morning was a bit off-putting. The hotel handled an incident with another guest (during which the police were called) with discretion and professionalism. Overall, I would recommend this hotel.

We had a fabulous stay in this hotel. Lovely location with a huge room and lovely food (both in the evening and for brekfast).

A good location and generally acceptable hotel but let down by the poor quality of our room, noise from functions, and poor service because of functions

our second visit to this hotel, loved it the first time and it was better the second. The room was spot on a lovely bit of luxury for a change. Food great and staff welcoming , friendly and helpful. We will be returning again soon.

We visited in August 2008. The hotel was much better than we expected, it's in a lovely part of oxford. You can walk from the hotel down to Iffley Lock and along the river into oxford centre. You come out by the Head of the River Pub (a bit dark to walk home after a night out but you can get a taxi for about £7). If you want to save a bit of money off the price of a central oxford hotel this really is a good choice. Rooms were nice and spacious, clean, really comfortable beds with tempur matresses. The staff were really helpful although usually quite busy on reception. Breakfast is good, there is a choice of fruit, yogurt, cereal, pastries, or a fried breakfast. The waiting staff were helpful and quickly brought toast and coffee. THey were a bit busy the second day as the hotel was full of guests from a wedding the day before but they were very good if you were a bit patient. There is also a restaurant and bar at the hotel which looked very nice although we didn't try them, we ate in town. You do need to be prepared for a bit of a walk into town, but if you're away for a leisurely break Iffley lock is beautiful, the hotel is in a lovely area, this is real England at it's best, a lovely peaceful walk in the countryside. Would definately stay here again if visiting Oxford.

a beautiful looking hotel in lovely grounds. the rooms are comfortable. HOWEVER - this is totally spoiled by the WORST SERVICE I have experienced in ten years. The girl at check in was friendly enough, but ignored me whilst chatting to a colleague. I asked if she could book a taxi for 8pm - down we came, at 8:05, a taxi arrived, we got in, to be told it wasn't our taxi it was for a member of staff (I would have thought he would have given up his cab for us - HE DIDN'T). We missed our dinner reservation as the taxi had not been booked! Next morning, down to breakfast - a sea of dirty tables - not a single table made up! No staff around. We sat at a dirty table for 5 minutes, no one came - so I went off and spotted a "waiter" in the kitchens, asked for a clean table, was greeted by a grunt. 5 minutes later, waiter came in put knives and folks in front of us, on a dirty table, took away the dirty plates and left us amid the crumbs. There was hardly any food left - no sausage or bacon, one spoonful of eggs! Again, I went off to find someone, 10 more minutes and a few low quality sausages and some terrible bacon tuned up, was dumped into the warming trays and off they went again. I cannot state things more plainly - DO NOT GO TO THIS HOTEL IF YOU WANT A NICE BREAK, THE STAFF DO NOT CARE ABOUT THE GUESTS!

harkwell house was such a top class hotel! The ambience was perfect, service from staff was courteous and excellent. The quality of the rooms was really impressive and I would not hesitate to stay there again should I visit Oxford!

My wife and I stayed in the Hawkwell house and though it's a bit from city center (a long walk or cheap bus ride), it's still a nice location. Very quiet and peaceful area, good included breakfast, everything very satisfactory.

we couldnt fault the hotels presentation, staff and food. the rooms were spotless and very comfortable. we would most certainly go back.

Very friendly staff and a large comfy bed made our stay here fantastic. The walk along the river to Oxford was very pleasant, a great weekend. Recommended.

If you are going to Oxford, I recommend the Hawkwell. I was in Oxford to give a paper at a philosophy conference at Lady Margaret Hall. The location is great for winding down after a busy day. The staff is pleasant. The rooms are well-kept. The bathrooms are very nice and clean. You can catch the number 4 bus and get into Oxford in less than ten minutes from there. Overall, a great location and a very nice hotel.

The hotel is not in walking distance to Oxford, but the surroundings are quiet with a charming garden. The hotel is a bit worn-out and unfashionable, but they have new, very comfortable matresses from Tempur. Dinner was good and they also offer free parking.

Calme et excentré par rapport au centre ville d'Oxford (40 min à pied), mais vraiment très agréable! Propreté et petit déjeuner copieux.

Jag bodde på detta hotell över två nätter tillsammans med min flickvän. Vi är båda nöjda med hotellets standard för ett fullt överkomligt pris. Rummet var stort och rymligt med en stor och skön säng. Vidare var det smidigt att beställa in mat till rummet via en bra rumservice. Traditionell engelsk frukost ingick också i alla rumspriser. Hotellet låg fint placerat ett par km söder om Oxford city i en lugn och fridfull miljö. Man tar sig in till city enklast via buss eller taxi på mellan 5-10 min.

Ik was hier als toerist voor 1 nacht. Taxi vanaf het station 8,5 pond betaald, prima afstand en tarief. Kamer uitstekend, badkamer ietsje aan de ouderwetse kant maar schoon. Waterkoker/koffie/thee en zelfs koekjes op de kamer. Heel rustige omgeving.

hotel de luxe a prix très correct
