I booked two single rooms at this B&B after reading its many rave reviews. Unfortunately, my friend cancelled on me the day after I booked (with six days to go until arrival). I rang the B&B to let them know and was told it was no problem. About ten minutes later, someone else rang to say it WAS a problem... More

We had a very pleasant stay at Burlington House. The owner (we think) was very friendly and helpful. Breakfasts were excellent. Home made bread and fresh orange juice which is something we wish more places did - small details like this can really transform a trip. Our room was small and the bathroom was quite cramped. But we didn't spend... More

Stayed here for 2 mights en route to the New Forest having never explored Oxford before. Spotted BH in a newspaper review, and so booked it. Can't honestly say that anything was bad, but struggling to see why people seem to rave about the place. Would have liked a bigger room in the main house rather than in the "elegant... More

An excellent place in walking distance near the centre of Oxford. Very friendly man. He adapts immediately to your request if you have some. The rooms are very clean, proper and heated on a high standard. Internet may work better in the lower floors but I am sure he will fix it if you ask the manager for it. He... More

We booked the Burlington House Hotel for a short stay after our wedding. We were not disappointed with any aspect of the hotel and stay. There are lots of shops and restaurants a short walk away in Sumertown, which was really handy. We found walking into Oxford city, for sight seeing & shopping, perfect on a dry day, it took... More

Nowhere does it say on the website that a shower is all you will find in the so called "ensuite." A bit of a surprise when it has "hotel" in the name. Everything else is up to scratch. A bit further out of town than is really convenient.

Can't remember when I've stayed in a lovelier B&B. The staff is wonderful. The breakfast is great with lots of variety. Loved the cozy bed. This place is all you would want in a home away from home whether you are staying one night or a week.
