Nice hotel right outside Oxford Road station. Staff were great, with a friendly welcome and a free glass of wine or a beer, just what was needed after a long trip to get there! Rooms were clean and spacious with tea, coffee, fresh milk and even a little chocolate bar in the room. The whole experience felt much more personal than the usual big brand hotel chains 👍
