Newton House
Martyn was a gracious host and room. Ery clean and comfortable. I’ve rated it a 4 as we had to walk into Oxford for breakfast. Having said that, we enjoyed the Sunday morning walk. Would stay again and highly recommend.

Didn’t use the gym, disappointed that a “Spa” hotel had no pool

Linton Lodge Hotel, BW Signature Collection
A great location for attending Wolfson College, but a 40 minute walk from Oxford city centre, with no shops or anything else. The property is clean and serviceable, but with no frills.
