Hotel Oxford

A lovely hotel, very spacious room with an ensuite with a fantastic 'rain fall' shower, included a hairdryer and bidet. Really friendly and helpful staff. Good choice of food at breakfast time, cooked and continental options. We arrived at about 10.30 am, our room wasn't quite ready, we were given complimentary tea, coffee and snacks while we waited. Hotel staff gave us suggestions as to where to go to see great views, eg nearby Hotel Eden 5 star with a roof terrace, it was expensive but superb. The staff at the restaurant and bar were friendly and the place had a good 'vibe'. Perfect location to see the main sights, close to stops for 'hop on, hop off' buses. Staff ordered taxis for us on a couple of occasions and they arrived within minutes, even when there was a national transport strike. There isn't a kettle in the room, we took a travel kettle and a couple of mugs, no problem. Also there is a PAMS supermarket a couple of doors away which was really handy for low cost snacks, drinks etc.

Great hotel close to the attractions that we wanted to see and in a reasonable walking distance to the Spanish Steps and Trevi Fountain. Reception desk extremely helpful in organising a hop on off bus for those areas a bit further afield such as Vatican and the coliseum. Prices was fair for the location. Only down side was limited number of power outlets in the room but other than that we had a great stay and if ever back in Rome, which I think we will be, will book again.

This is NOT a 4* hotel I would give it a 2* at a push and only because the staff are really nice. The rooms are dated and small, the bathroom was small and covered in black mould, which my husband has breathing issues, the hotel lift is tiny and doors don't close fully which scared us everytime we had to use it. At breakfast the hot food was not hot but cold. We only stayed 1 night because it was late but paid for another hotel the very next day. Would definitely not recommend.

this hotel has been such a lovely accommodation to stay at in rome, the location was amazing to visit all the tourist attractions with nearby cafes and restraunts, this pictures are not fully upto date for example the rooms are not as detailed as pictures shown, me and my other half booked a luxury room which we were happy with although it didnt seem too luxury to us. one thing we would say was delightful was that cleaners would do their best job and really ensure your stay was at the top standard, staff working in reception were lovely and accommodating One thing we were never warned about was the city/room tax you have to pay after your stay with this hotel, we stayed 7 nights which came to 105 euros which was a bit of a shock but luckily the staff told us upon our arrival which ensured we had plenty of money left over for checking out of the hotel. There is a lovley little restraunt downstairs which we didnt have time to try but did sit down with a few alcoholic drinks, i must say they were quite expensive but nevertheless it was all for the experience so money wasnt the issue for us in the moment.

Couldn’t fault the hotel nor the staff. I feel like some of the negative reviews about the Oxford are very nit picky - the decor and furniture adds to the authentic experience of the stay. A used hotel is of course going to have some scuff marks etc. Every member of staff we met were so friendly and couldn’t do more to help us. We were also able to check in early which was great. The view from our bedroom window was also an unexpected delight! Only gripe is that some of the photo’s from the hotel website are not the most accurate. Prime location- just far enough away from the major hustle and bustle of the city centre but within walking distance to most popular spots. Of course there will be noise from the road as Rome is a busy city but this was well shut out using the windows and terraced shutters. Enough charging points for us and beds were comfy- not ‘stone hard’ as others have expressed.

People posting low rating reviews here, are NOT mean. They are telling you the truth. This is certainly not a four- star hotel. They are lucky if they could get two. Everything was minimum. One sheet on a mattress. A bathroom with weird smell…
