Remont Oxford Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"A great value stay in Oxford - the hotel was clean, and all staff were helpful and lovely. Having shampoo and conditioner available in the bathrooms would be helpful, and our shower was initially stuck on very hot water but that was fixed immediately when we flagged this. A fan was provided to deal with the hot weather. The location is handy too - easy access by bus into the city centre, so you can avoid having to pay for expensive parking and congestion charges."
