Stayed here several times and had a great stay as always. Didn't eat this time in the evening but had a lovely pint of fullers. The breakfast was freshly cooked and a great start to the day. Lovely stay as always.

What a jewel on Oxford St. Wild about our room and the attention to detail used in the decor. Our welcome was personal and thorough. The location was ideal for the areas we wanted to see like the historic district.
