The building has a long history and it's been well taken care of over many years. Centrally located and easy for us to get around Oxford with little effort. The suite we had was a great value and the entire hotel is incredibly charming. Be sure not to miss a cocktail at the Morse Bar located just off the lobby entrance.

For what you see in the photo, you can expect to pay around £100. Though it's worth almost £50 per head, it's obvious that the quality and quantity speaks for itself. I got full already from just the basic tea sandwiches, before even touching the scones or the delectable desserts. Another reminder to come with an empty stomach! It's simply not a "snack" but rather, closer to a full-course meal. One thing I'd note is that the cakes & jam are very ordinary. Clotted cream was better at the Tea Garden as well. Nonetheless, the atmosphere was lovely, and you can't find a better place in Oxford. I'd absolutely recommend the afternoon tea at the Randolph if you are able. One minor hiccup was the reservation part. Even though my party arrived on time, we had to wait an additional 15-20 minutes to be seated. Other than that, the quality of our experience was exceptional.

The staff seemed quite aloof with not a lot of interest in marking up local attractions on a map. They were more keen on trying to make us have dinner at their restaurant. The room itself was located in the courtyard and we felt there was a distinct lack of privacy. The room layout was extremely cramped and didn't feel very luxurious. What made life even more miserable was the snoring from the adjacent room, which suggested that the hotel owners were apathetic about the comfort of their guests and couldn't be bothered to acoustically insulate the rooms properly. I don't think I'd stay here again.

I can't imagine a better hotel to stay in in Oxford! Although 'hotel' might be a little inaccurate…read more- this place is more of an inn or b&b. The location can't be any more central - down a tiny alley, right on top of the Turf Tavern and just around the corner from the Bodleian and Trinity College, Bath Place really is right in the heart of Oxford. Booking is a bit of a pain - like many smaller English hotels, they prefer that you book by phone, which is less than ideal when you have to pay international calling rates, but that's just a small hiccup. We arrived a bit later than anticipated due to some car trouble, but the hotel was perfectly accommodating. We were greeted by the receptionist and two friendly terriers, and shown to our room. I'd requested room 12 specifically because it's one of their few rooms with two beds, and it was perfectly lovely, but not for the mobility-limited. It's up a narrow, winding flight of stairs and there's no lift, so anyone who might have issues climbing stairs or those with giant luggage might struggle. We didn't mind, and had the top floor of the cottage to ourselves with a view of the bell tower and a pretty back garden. The room was quite spacious, especially for an historic property, and well appointed with a dresser, vanity, and mini-bar complete with tea and coffee fixings. The bath, although lacking a shower, had a generously-sized tub and a heated towel rail, which I was supremely excited about. We had a good night's sleep, uninterrupted by Turf revelers - with the windows closed, we couldn't hear a thing, although I imagine it might be different in the summer - and in the morning availed ourselves of the breakfast buffet. Breakfast is included in the room fee, and the buffet spread wasn't lacking. Meat and cheese, fruit, juice, cereal, yogurt, and tiny glass jars of jam and honey. Fresh bread and warm croissants were brought to our table, as well as a tiny French press of coffee made to order. There was also an option to order additional hot items like eggs or beans on toast, which we didn't bother with as the buffet was plenty. Although checkout was at 11am, we were able to leave our luggage at reception until our train later that afternoon while we explored the town. The room fee was very reasonable, especially considering the historic nature of the property, the central location, and the wonderful breakfast. I can't wait to return to Oxford and stay here again!

We chose this establishment for the one night we were planning to stay in Oxford. This property has the best location of any hotel or bed & breakfast in the immediate area. It's right on Broad street almost smack dab in the middle of town. Frankly, the location can't be beat. We stayed in a remarkably average room. The bed wasn't very comfortable, the television had very poor reception and limited channels and the bathroom was VERY oddly designed; we had to dangerously climb onto a polished marble "step" to enter the raised bathtub area. Again, the saving grace for this property is its wonderful location. Also, the complimentary breakfast is delicious and hearty. To my knowledge, this property does not have an elevator available for guest use, so be prepared to begrudgingly carry heavy suitcases up a steep flight of stairs to the reception area, and then possibly up more steps to your room. Pleasingly, all the staff we encountered were friendly and accommodating. However, after dark, the area has a generally seedy feeling to it, with dim lighting and sketchy characters lurking about. I definitely recommend this property to anyone planning to stay overnight in Oxford. Third time's a charm: the location of this establishment is IDEAL.
