Great location and OK accommodation.
Henry's location is excellent. And the accommodation is OK. It's a bit tired around the edges (mould in the shower, windows not cleaned for several years, etc.) But OK. We missed the little things, like not being able to store our bags anywhere safe.

This is a really handy room only place slap in middle of Oxford. Very clean, all facilities, excellent condition

4/10 Fair

AirBnB like place, but they did not provide the entry codes ahead of time. When I called the front desk (of a different hotel) the gentleman who answered also didn't know the entry code, but he did call back 20 minutes later with the code. Also adjusting thermostat did nothing, it was cold no matter what I set it to.

A great stay near all the shops and tourist areas.

10/10 Exceptional

We enjoyed our stay at Henry's very much. The room was clean, well kept and convenient to the central part of Oxford. There are only 4 rooms, and no desk or staff on site, but we called the number with questions and a real person answered and was very helpful. This stay was close to the train station and very centrally located for touring Oxford or finding good pubs.
Cindy, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Near city center, very easy to access. Oxford is the beautiful town, definitely worth to stay at least two nights to explore the surrounding countryside.

My room was spacious and well-equipped, and the hotel is in a terrific location - quiet and convenient for everything. My stay couldn't have been better. I will definitely base myself here again next time I'm in Oxford.

Beautiful house in the old town, historic place - but with modern comfort (new Bathroom, cozy bed ...). They did a great job restoring it! We had a tiny kitchen with fridge, tea/coffee, a sitting room and there even was a fan. We didn't get the welcome email, but we just gave them a call and everything was handled perfectly. If you have problems with stairs, you should know there are two sets, the last quite narrow, because it's an old house. We would love to stay here again - highly recommend!
Janina, 3-night trip

6/10 Good

Check-in is an ordeal. There is no front desk and it can be difficult reaching someone by phone. Entrance is via a code, which is the same code for all the rooms - a cause for security concerns. The overhead fan did not work. We couldn’t get on the wifi either, but just trying to get into the room had been such a hassle we opted to not bother trying to reach out again. The space itself is fine and like the pictures. Lots of light. Had everything we wanted. Nice central location, but beware it can be noisy near pub and club closing times (3am).
Julia, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

A comfortable stay, it was lovely having a table and having a few plates and things as well as a fridge. It has been well thought out and was easy to access and it felt secure. Some noise from the upstairs apartment but they weren’t too noisy
Michelle, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Location was very good. Access was secure. Mini fridge was helpful.Bath towels were nice size. Lighting was fine. Coffee maker leaked when turned on, hot water pot old and deteriorated, needs replacing. bath sink drains a bit slow. Room temp couldn't be regulated. Shower water temp too hot, could not be lowered and no one to call to service or discuss situation.

European Adventure
As advised there is no reception at this hotel however I didn’t receive an email to advise key location or door code. This was very inconvenient but made better because of the help from the neighbouring bicycle repair shop people and Bart from the “Handle Bar” restaurant next door. A big shout out of thanks to those folks for their help. Everything else about the Hotel is good, great location, comfortable, cosy and quaint. If stairs are a problem this is not the hotel for you. Wifi is weak.

Fab place - we loved it
We loved our stay here - very nicely furnished and lots of extras to make the stay both comfortable and seamless - hairdryer, iron/ironing board, fridge, wine glasses, bottle opener, coffee maker, table and chairs - really well thought about. If it can be improved in nay way it would be to have just slightly longer shower screen so that you don't soak the bathroom floor so much! In all, a lovely stay and wouldn't hesitate to recommend. Great central location, no parking mind but we used the "just park" app and parked on somebody's driveway for £36 for two nights, just a seven-minute walk away.

Hurrah for Henry's
Excellent location, 6min (flat) walk from station, tucked away on a quiet, central road. Local amenities minutes away. Room itself, compact but everything needed available. Plenty to do around the city... Mon - Fri break just right.
John, 4-night trip

2/10 Poor

Host did not show, took 5 calls from us to gain access. Chair was stained and torn, window blind was broken. Kitchen scouer left for washing up was very used and old, disgusting. Overhead fan did not work, aircon not opperating, pedistal fan wonky. Ioning board proped beside the table but had feet missing so did not stand. Corrosion on kitchen tap. No luggage rack. Very, very disappointing.

Welsh girl graduated.
We met Rupert the owner at the property and he was very friendly and helpful. We had two rooms for two nights because we were attending our daughters graduation. The location was excellent right in the centre of town and made our visit extra special. Thank you’
Tracey, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Rupert was a courteous and responsive host. He ensured that our room was as cool and comfortable as possible during our heatwave stay. He resolved a couple of issues promptly and to our satisfaction. The location was superb and we had a very enjoyable stay.

Henry’s was a great place to stay right near the center of Oxford. You have to have a code to get in the door. My one problem was that I didn’t get an email with the code prior to my visit, which made it hard to get in. I was able to call them and got the code and from them on, it was perfect. The room had a small kitchenette (nowhere to heat food, but a small fridge and sink) and some basic supplies. There was a bedroom and sitting room and bathroom so it felt easy to be ‘at home’ there. It’s right in town, so there was noise until about 2 am some nights. I did not mind that. If you’re looking for a comfortable, convenient, in-town place, this is a great one.
