The best part of Tower House -- its wonderful location in the heart of Oxford -- obviously won't change, but new owners could bring improvements to the sub-par facilities or they could let it slip even further. When we were there in late spring 2013, the initial change was to offer breakfast down the street at the Turl Street Cafe... More

Made a booking three weeks prior to my trip back to Oxford. All very easy and helpful, long discussion about the times of arrival that morning and late access of the room that evening. Called back to confirm details a week later. No problems, very accomodating. Arrived at agreed time - no one in, just a recorded message saying noone... More

What a cute and quaint Oxford Hotel. It is charming and those of you who need steaming hot showers, large lfts and a 24 hour reception will not be happy. Those of you who want to live in a historic buiding for a few nights, duck the low ceilings, climb the windy stairs and keep waiting for a hobbit to... More

I booked a room with a shared bathroom by mistake and was a little worried about what I would find at the Tower House. What I did find was a helpful and friendly welcome and a rather quaint and eccentric guest house. I loved it. Winding stairs, twists and turns, low ceilings, doors at odd angles. I would advise you... More

Stayed here last weekend with my wife and some friends. The Tower House is in a great, central but very quiet location. Convenient to all the tourist sites and to the park and ride bus stops.The bedroom was a good size, though the bed was a little bumpy. En-suite shower was a bit slow, but then I am used to... More

This is a quaint B&B right in the heart of Oxford. It is the perfect location to explore the city on foot however we had a room at the front which was noisy with passers by well into the night. Our room was an ensuite double room right at the top of the building. The narrow staircase made it difficult... More

First night in the UK could not have been better. Good English character (and by that I mean kind, helpful, and understanding) and comfortable furnishings. The proprietor was at the door when I arrived and allowed me to stash my stuff a couple hours early (I arrived two hours before my check-in time) and gave me advice on everything from... More

We stayed on a Saturday night and had a wonderful time. We were allowed to check in early morning Saturday which was a bonus as we could leave our luggage whilst taking in the sights of Oxford during the day. The location is second to none and perfect for popping to the shops, visiting the restaurants on George Street at... More

A nice place to stay. Had to go to Oxford for a work trip and stayed in the Jade Room. The chap running the B and B was a gentleman. I discovered that the dry-cleaner had made a right mess of my suit and asked for an iron. The gent running the place, got his steamer out and saved the... More
