Bath Place Hotel - A 17th-century cottage-style hotel in Oxford's historic center with off-street parking

Set in a cluster of 17th-century cottages around a flagstone courtyard, Bath Place Hotel provides ensuite rooms with digital flat-screen TVs, minibars, and tea/coffee facilities. The New College bell tower, in use since the 13th century, is visible from some rooms. Guests can enjoy a continental breakfast buffet with Italian salami and freshly baked croissants in the dining room or via room service. The adjacent Turf Tavern, reputedly Oxford's oldest inn, serves drinks just steps from the property. Located seconds from the Sheldonian Theatre and Bodleian Library, the hotel is 200 meters from the History of Science Museum. A lounge with fireplace and free Wi-Fi are available, while off-street parking costs £30 per day (bookable in advance). Pets are permitted in certain rooms for a £15 fee.

Pros

The 17th-century cottages feature original sloping floors and narrow staircases, adding historic charm.

Prime location within walking distance of New College, Hertford College, and multiple museums.

Continental breakfast includes authentic Italian salami and freshly baked croissants.

Pet-friendly rooms available with a one-time fee of £15 for stays under two nights.

Cons

Some stairs and corridors are unusually narrow due to the building's 17th-century architecture.

Off-street parking costs £30 per day and requires advance booking.

Review summary

Powered by AI
The Bath Place Hotel is often praised for its superb location in the heart of Oxford, steps away from historical sites and right next door to the Turf Tavern, with easy walking distance to everything Oxford is renowned for. Guests appreciate the full English breakfast and the in-room tea service, which includes biscuits. Some guests have found certain rooms to be small. Many highlight the unique ambiance with the unexpected dining room and lounge built into the stone walls.

Charming stay in historic setting

central location attentive staff tea service comfortable bed
The location is definitely integral to the city center, so it afforded me excellent access to shops and pubs. The staff were attentive. I found in-room tea service generous. It included biscuits. The bed was comfortable.
The floors were uneven (i noticed that), something elderly guests might struggle with.
Dining

The breakfast offered ample portions, though not extravagant. Guests get adequate choices. I thought the breakfast staff were especially pleasant (it was a highlight!). The experience was good.
