Holiday Inn Oxford, an IHG Hotel in Oxford

Modern hotel in a good location. The staff are friendly and the buffet breakfast is lovely. The only downside is no smart TV's in the hotel rooms which means no Netflix, Disney+, or Amazon prime.

It seems like hotel was recently renovated and they did a great job! The decor in the guestrooms and the lobby, restaurant and training areas are just beautiful! My daughter loved it too! Prior to arrival, I called to get directions to the hotel and the gentleman that answered was so nice and thoughtful. Before I asked for anything, he thanked me for being an IHG loyalty member. When I inquired about the upgrade offer I was sent after booking (pay extra £5 to upgrade to King bed) he automatically upgraded me without extra charge because I was a member! The room was very clean and the bed was super comfortable. I asked for extra pillows and conditioner and they were delivered within 5min. Having a safe and little mini fridge in the room was also very convenient! The night before departure, I was quite anxious about our airport transfer. The young ladies at the front desk were very helpful and made a reservation with their local taxi company (Royal Taxi) and assured me they were very reliable. Sure enough, the taxi was their the next morning 15min early and managed to get us to Gatwick faster than expected . Our booking included breakfast which was wonderful! Lots of variety. Unfortunately, they only open at 7am so we couldn't sit and enjoy as we had early appointments - we were able to take out so that was ok. Perhaps consider opening a little earlier at 630am? The only small negative is that it is kind of far from Oxford central but it's only a about a 20min bus ride so that's not bad especially since you save with the more reasonable room rates here.

Good location, ideal access to motoway.

Absolutely loved my stay at this hotel ❤️ The hotel was very nice and clean. Many Christmas decorations around the hotel, very friendly staff. Loved my breakfast on Saturday, it was fresh and delicious! Couldn't get enough of it. Unfortunately on Sunday the breakfast wasn't so good as the food was very dry and difficult to eat. However, in general I had a very positive experience with this place and would definitely recommend it and come back the next time I'm visiting Oxford! This is the first hotel using Dove for your hand wash, shower gel and shampoo! Loved it! I always travel with my own shower gels, shampoos etc as I don't like the hotel ones, they always make my skin feel dry but I do love Dove so I was really really happy to see this hotel using it. Love how everything and everyone was so positive at this hotel as well!

My husband and I spent a night here to celebrate our anniversary and have some R&R. Everything is better than expected. Clean, warm, comfortable, excellent food and service. A very special thanks to Aida on reception for such a warm and welcoming arrival and providing us a few anniversary treats. What a valued member of staff. Perfect hotel - can’t wait to return.

Staff were amazing in all departments, food was delicious and location great right next to Park and Ride for Oxford. Took my 85 Yr old Mum away for the Victorian Christmas Market which she really enjoyed. Staff and Management were very attentive to our needs thank you all so much ❤️ We will be back 😀

Such a lovely hotel. Beautifully decorated and super clean. My room was absolutely lovely. The staff were so friendly and welcoming. Charlotte the lady who organised our reunion was brilliant. The food was excellent!!! Definitely going to stay there again!!

Great value for money with attentive and friendly staff - Definitely recommend to choose one of the refurbished rooms in the new building!

Stayed here over the weekend with family and it was a great experience all around. The rooms were very new and clean, amenities like the ironing board and iron being in the room already were very much appreciated, the service was great, at check-in Ms Bulbul and Aida were extremely helpful and professional. The breakfast was really good, it is not easy to keep many teenagers happy when it comes to breakfast but it did the job! The on-site parking was very handy for us.

The only place to stay in Oxford. I have reviewed here before and will say again and again how fantastic it is as I stay here a lot the. The rooms are always immaculately clean and fresh. The staff really understand customer service. A special shout out to Gavin, Sara, Georgie and Jackie who all make my stay so welcoming. We also book events here and recommend the facilities to use their meeting rooms too.

Air conditioning is nice but made the air very dry. Room clean and tidy as usual. Greorgi was great on reception 👏

Very convenient if you want to get the park and ride into Oxford, taxi another option and not expensive. Hotel was spotless, beds comfortable, breakfast good value and the staff were exceptionally helpful. Highly recommended 👌

Great service. Staff are very attentive. Highly recommended Can we have the beef bourguignon back on the menu please

Friendly staff, clean. Good food.

Wonderful Hotel, Great Rooms, Great Service. Great Food. Service by Staff was brilliant, best I have experienced. Everyone nice, friendly, nice to see everyone with a smile. I would highly recommend and 110% will be coming back.

It's ok if you don't mind driving everywhere. there's not a pavement outside to leave the place so at night time it's a bit sketchy

Babs and Needha are absolutely amazing! So kind, so understanding! 10/10 customer service!

Very professional and polite staff. Comfortable room.

Staff very polite and room was clean. Only little gripe was aircon didn't appear to work.

Lovely rooms & Incredible service, the staff we spoke to went above and beyond with the breakfast service. nice veggie and non dairy options. Will come back!

Brilliant. I recently have been staying in IHG hotels throughout the south of England. This simply is the best hotel anywhere I have stayed. I have been staying here on occasion since 2005. This is by far the best version of this hotel. Aida, Nisha, Gergi, Daniel and all other reception staff are so helpful, personally friendly and have made my extended stay restful and quite exceptional. Very relaxing bar and restaurant areas and food has been good. Wait and bar staff very friendly. Very clean and very comfortable rooms. An excellent hotel for all types of travellers.

Great stay at the Holiday Inn in Oxford. Really good value compared to hotels in the centre. Close to the park and ride and taxi into town £10. The staff here are great and couldn’t do enough to help. We came back gone midnight one evening having not eaten and they very kindly made us sandwiches even though the restaurant had closed some hours ago. Would definitely recommend.

My husband came to attend a course at the hotel and I came along with our toddler for a break in Oxford. It is a beautifully renovated holiday inn. Staff are so helpful and responsive. Special mention to Sarah on reception. Breakfast was tasty and had all the expected elements including hot food and cold buffet. Jacqui at breakfast was a wonderful host and couldn’t have done more to make us feel welcome and attended to. Service felt very 5 star, considering this is a holiday inn with a more budget friendly reputation I have been very impressed with the standard of the hotel. We would certainly book again.

Excellent staff, friendly welcome. The evening staff were engaging and very funny.

Honestly can't knock it to be honest, TV was HUGE, room was very comfortable and warm. The food was excellent and the staff were also lovely and accommodating. Given its a Holiday Inn just off a busy roundabout but for what I needed it for it was excellent!

Amazing staff Georgi and Ven helped me out massively as I booked the wrong evening Amazing staff all over hotel Recommend

Such a good experience. All the staff have been ace and made one boys first hotel stay incredible!!

Very good place to stay. Platinum member especially Danial. Thanks a lot
