The property is a fairly small, old-fashioned, terraced house located in the centre of Oxford. Not spacious, and you'll share a bathroom but reasonably priced and great position within a short walk of the colleges.

We loved the location of The Tower House, its location was centrally located to be able to walk to restaurants and the local sites easily. Although staff were not on site 24 hours a day, it was easy to contact them via phone with an immediate response.

Lovely historic place. Only stayed 1 night. Had room with bath only. Had I stayed for more I would have preferred shower. Still. A very unique experience and very clean!! Excellent location!

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Perfunctory 'welcome', reception the only nice part of the building. It is from 1700's so expected wonky floors etc, but shower fitting had been hanging off the wall for some time, soap container by sink empty, wallpaper peeling and lots of tatty decorating. Grossly overpriced

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The place is definitely not worth the pricing, even considering the really good location. Considering and accepting the "shared bathroom" option it was assumed that the bathroom is standardly shared for two rooms and is located next door to the room, while in fact it is shared for 9 rooms and located on another level of the building, requiring climbing the stares. The room is very tight and small. The cleanliness of the shared bathroom is not acceptable as the personal only attends property when there are new customers coming. No interim bathroom cleaning is performed.

A small hotel with a B&B feel.
A small hotel with a B&B feel. This is an old building, fitting with the town of Oxford with modern features like a flatscreen tv and wifi. The location is a side street but still in the heart of town. An easy walk to all that Oxford has to offer including the new shopping center.
