    Unmarked hotel, so we looked for the entrance / reception for 15 minutes. the towels were dirty when we entered the room. We were in a room where the window cannot be opened.

    Excellent location near Earl's Court station.

    Odd set up as there are 3 buildings. Lift was out of order and wasn't told on check-in. Fortunately I had minimal luggage and could cope with one flight. The room numbering is very odd and not signposted in the building I was in. No QR cide for wifi in the room, only at reception.

    Great location. Comfortable room. Had to pay a deposit for damages but it cleared from my card very quickly.

    The reception was in a building with a different name (not hotel Oxford) so it was a little confusing. The elevator didn't worked when we were there.

    The room was perfect, especially considering the price. It was very close to a Tube station, spotlessly clean, and comfortable. The bed was exceptionally cozy, and the air conditioning worked well.

    Very well located and quiet hotel, the rooms are small but welcoming and well furnished. It is excellent both for visiting London, given its proximity to the tube, and also for making longer journeys since Paddington and Victoria stations are very close.

    Very modern. And I liked staying in Earl’s Court.

    I liked everything except two things. But I’m afraid they are important things, I didn’t stay at the Oxford hotel. I got an email a few days before saying you checkin at a different hotel because all three hotels share the check in at the Kensington merit hotel. We were put in a room there and there was just one problem. It was by far the smallest room in a hotel I’ve ever seen in my life. We couldn’t move around in it so I suggest if you’re claustrophobic or just over 4 feet tall you don’t stay there. Don’t tell people your hotel is called one thing and put them up somewhere else either.

    Confusing directions to find the room, room numbers don’t go in a logical order, no instructions were given on how to turn the lights on and it took us a bit to figure out. The bed was very hard.

    Great location, safe neighborhood, close to tube station. Clean and modern room, although we would have liked a fan as it was hot and stuffy.

    Location and price were good and ok respectively. The bed was not good.

    The bed.... This was a sofa bed which is not good enough really. I appreciate access to the rooms in a town house are tight, but a built in situ bed with slatted base and roll up mattress would be far superior to the sofa bed here. A shame really, as the rest was modern and immaculate.

    Location was good, close to a high street and close to the tube station which was ideal. The room was clean and tidy and felt modern. It was quiet inside as well which is always welcome.

    No signage on the building for Oxford hotel. Shares with Merit hotel. Needs sign for Oxford as well. A little on the small side for us but standard for London accommodation.

    The location was great. Very close to underground trains and bus routes. Well appointed room and comfortable bed. Staff nice and helpful.

    Being right next to the lift but having said that I had my ear plugs in and my daughter didn't hear much from the lift. Complimentary bottled water would have been nice every day while we were there and not just at the start.

    The room was small but well laid out. The shower worked well and the beds very comfortable. We liked the complimentary bottles of water on the first night. The makeup mirror in the bathroom was very welcome.
