Lovely garden location on Thames fairly close to Oxford. Excellent beds and bedding but towels and robes could use an upgrade. Delicious a la carte breakfast.and lots of common areas and gardens. The sister property nearer to Oxford would have been a better choice for us as we would have liked to have been closer to Oxford

Front desk was amazing and friendly. The room is very nice and super comfortable and the food at the restaurant was A M A Z I N G!!! We actually decided to extend our stay and stay here for a second night before going back to Heathrow instead going back to London for our last night. It’s just beautiful here.

Lovely welcoming staff, with honeycomb from their own bees. Lovely building, quiet and relaxing. Nice spa with treatments. Good buffet breakfast with lots of options overlooking the thames. An hours walk along the thames into oxford. Or a short bus ride from right outside the hotel. Would recommend.

We stayed for a mini break, just two nights. Really fortunate to have a ground floor room. The room was great, really spacious, kingsize bed and really well furnished and decorated. The bathroom was excellent with a great shower. We had dinner the first night, very enjoyable and reasonably priced. Breakfast was outstanding, lots of choice and excellant produce. The setting by the side of the Thames was good, we enjoyed walking along the towpath. All in all a great stay and highly recommended.

This is a true gem of a hotel and we felt that it was perfectly located for our needs. It is a lovely hour long riverside stroll into Oxford Our only complaint would be that you have to pay for parking on site. If parking must be made we would prefer to have the charge added to the bill rather than appear as an extra charge Every staff member was incredible and could not do enough to make our stay more pleasurable. Bonus points for having a sauna and steamroom We will be visiting again Thank you to all at the team at Voco Oxford Thames for making our stay a genuinely enjoyable one
