Positive: The proximity to everything we wanted to see in Oxford. The bed was very comfy, the room clean and the biscuits are a delight.
Negative: We ate at Gees which did feel a little cold in January - we should have opted for the in house restaurant. This was entirely our error.

Positive: We upgraded to. Luxury Accessible room as my wife has cerebral palsy. The room and en-suite were quite the best I have ever experienced. We were celebrating her 70th birthday so I was happy to pay for luxury and we certainly experienced it at the Old Parsonage Hotel! The Reception team were friendly, welcoming and extremely helpful in every way (even finding a parking space for our guests when they visited us for lunch. The Restaurant staff could not have servers better- even when hey were busy they found time to meet our neeeds. The food in the Restaurant was amazing (not cheap bu we didn’t expect that). On two occasions we had guests to visit for a meal and they were very impressed with the quality of food. All in all an OUTSTANDING EXPERIENCE, at a pice which was not unreasonable for a special occasion.
Negative: Additional charges for service staff should be included in the main charge and not added on as an ‘extra’!
Summary: A true LUXURY EXPERIENCE!
