Upon entering the hotel you are surprised by the size. A welcoming arrival by those at front of house. Check in was easy and was shown to my room. Going through to the dining and lounge area which is lovely and decorated nicely and very spacious. The room was very clean and well laid out and modern (as were the... More

Two weeks ago I was in Oxford for a conference; the organisers made the arrangements for me. I did not know what to expect from Galaxie Hotel. To my surprize it was quite nice. If you want posh, this is not the place. But as I always look for a simple place, with good breakfast and nice staff - this... More

I emailed the hotel prior to arrival to request a refurbished room - they assured me my room would be such. Upon arrival, I was shown two old, stuffy, tired rooms and told nothing else was available; my two colleagues however were given new rooms. Moreover the woman showing me the rooms lied outright at first and insisted these room... More

He would be proud. I stayed in Room 33 in December. The shower was cold at night. The staff said no one had complained before. I was offered another room. Room 33 was the best room, but the blinds let in too much light and they are transparent in places which is not good for dressing! Although I was offered... More

Having previously lived in Oxford and now a frequent traveller to the city, I often choose Galaxie because of its peaceful location in North Oxford, its proximity to the city (only 10mins with great transport links), parking, great breakfast and good atmosphere. I have stayed there during work visits and with my partner and would recommend the hotel. Have been... More

To explain the title of my review: the bed was the hardest thing I've tried to sleep on since lying on camping mat in a tent. All that the bed comprised was a base covered with a thin foam pad about 3 inches thick. Totally unacceptable for a hotel. Having said that, the hotel is OK. The room was on... More

We stayed here for two nights to help move our daughter into university halls. Having booked a triple room we were shown to our top floor room....which contained only one bed; a double. The receptionist's reaction was "Oh, they haven't brought a single bed in. Still, there's nothing I can do about that." Unbelievable! When we asked what she intended... More

Having just spent three nights in the Galaxy Hotel while helping my son move into his university halls, I am thrilled to confirm that Oxford’s guest accommodation is everything it’s cracked up to be! The staff were lovely and courteous and very willing to answer our questions and make recommendations to us, which made our trip quite a lot better... More
