  Great hotel with some of the most friendliest staff I've ever met in all my travels. Always smiling and delivering the best possible customer service. Food in their dining hall was great. Enjoyed the room I stayed in. Has parking. Close to everything you would want to see in Oxford.

  Came and experienced the High tea on my Birthday. Was lovely inside, staff were friendly, high tea was great however they weren't clear on the portion sizes so we ended up with way too much. We preordered a special occasion birthday dessert which we received (shame it was exactly the same deserts as we had with our high tea so a bit of an overload). The plate read "Happy Anniversary" which was a bit of a shame. We had a good laugh though. Would go back!

  Their restaurant is probably the best restaurant in Oxford! Ticks all the boxes. Attractive, comfortable decor, very tasty food, great wine list, attentive staff. You enter through the old low door to be greeted, in cold, wet weather, by a roaring open fire. The food is comforting British and the specials are very special - I had a locally sourced, meltingly tender braised beef dish. They also do a gorgeous, generous afternoon tea. Very easy to get to from the centre of Oxford. We're always surprised at how difficult it is to find a really good restaurant in Oxford and are delighted to have discovered The Old Parsonage. Great for couples (romantic or otherwise), smaller groups of friends and perfect if you need to take your Aunt out for lunch. Highly recommended!

  Fabulous, is all I can say. Worth a stay on the merit of its elegant dining room alone, its walls covered with the most attractive oil paintings, the owner's private collection, most from the early 20the century. It is an authentic, old manor, with a fire place, and a new addition where the rooms are located. It has a great library room one can borrow books from. We spent a couple of magical days there in Christmas. Our room was very cozy, clean, classy and had ample space to do my Yoga practice. We had a great dinner there on our first night. The room came with a free tour of the city (do tip the knowledgeable guide!). The hotel is a ten-minute-walk from the train station, and the centre of the town, but removed enough that one doesn't get into the hustle bustle the moment one steps out of the hotel. The service is impeccable. The only complaint I could make is as usual there wasn't enough hot water to fill the bathtub, but it is more the norm than the exception at other luxurious lodgings around the world as well. Don't forget to take a stroll through Jericho district, where there are some great restaurants and it's very nearby. Would stay there again in a heartbeat!
