Tripadvisor Testimonial
A special day being cared for by the nicest team
A truly lovely day where we felt properly looked after and cared for. Victoria gave the most incredible massage and I nearly fell asleep she relaxed me down much! Victoria and Hannah were treasures both so nice to us. Would go again any time!
Perfect
We used the Oxford Belfry to host our Ladies Festival over the first weekend of March. Put simply, the Hotel, the staff, the rooms and the facilities were all excellent. We have had nothing but positive feedback from our guests who attended the weekend and would definitely recommend it. We would like to make a special mention to Georgia, who's patience and support throughout the organisation of it all was second to none.
Great location
Great staff, friendly and helpful, but the restaurant and service is a let down, lots of events and weddings on saturday night, so Sunday breakfast was a shambles, need more staff and more qualified staff
Great spa experience
Visited the spa and had a wonderful day. Brenda did my treatment and I can’t praise her enough. She went above and beyond to make sure I had a wonderful time. Thank you! All the staff were wonderful and great facilities even when it’s busy!
Loved it
We were there for a Anniversary celebration and the staff especially Kaitlyn behind the Bar and the young waiter who looked after our Table served us with experience and politeness they were exceptional
Good food
Leo was great today serving and helpful.
Lovely place for a spot of lunch!

Superb spa day
I had a spa day and it was incredible, I was so relaxed and chilled by the end of the day. Jo was an exceptional beauty therapist, I had full body hot stone massage and facial. She was brilliant. Food was great, staff were very friendly. Definitely recommend
Would highly recommend
Food was excellent, staff were great. Special mention to Leo and Evie who worked in the restaurant. Very polite and great service.
Great stay with friends
We had a great spa stay here. Leo in the restaurant was very good and looked after us very well.
Proper foot massage
Booked a spa treatment, loved that, proper foot massage with pedicure care. Will come back for that!
Bar service with a smile
Bar service with a smile from Jay. Met a friend for a drink in the lounge area and we were served by Jay, a charming young man
Excellent response
We received an excellent response from The Oxford Belfry following a late cancellation due to a bereavement. They transferred the full value of the cancelled B+B rate to a new booking a few weeks later. They were extremely understanding and could not have been more helpful. From a very satisfied customer from Ireland. We will return!

Great spa day
Brenda gave me a great neck, shoulder and back massage. She helped me feel comfortable and relaxed. The halloumi Caesar salad was delicious. The steam room, sauna, pool and lounge chairs were good.
Great stay, great staff
I stayed with my adult child in March 2026. It was a short overnight as we were looking at Oxford Brookes University (10 minute easy drive to Park and Ride). My son chose the hotel because of the swimming pool and gym, they did not disappoint, nor did the sauna and steam room. We contacted the hotel prior to arrival to query the facility opening times, the response was fast and very courteous. Upon arrival there was plentiful parking. We were warmly greeted by reception staff who told us the location of spa and pool area, where and when breakfast was available for the morning, and information about dining and room service. The room was clean and spacious, the robes were hung in the wardrobe, there was a hairdryer, iron and ironing board in the room. The view over the tennis courts and Oxfordshire countryside was delightful. Breakfast was good, full English, cereals, pastries, toast and fresh fruits. Additional items available, freshly cooked to order. Enough staff around to replenish and take kitchen orders. Check out was also easy with lovely staff on hand. The hotel layout is complex but staff are friendly, understanding and helpful. Overall a lovely stay, we would choose this hotel again when in the area.
Absolute pleasure to stay here, so attentive, really felt spoilt and attended to, highly recommend, we are going back
From start to finish, we had a great stay. All staff were unfailingly polite and anything we asked for or queried was dealt with so efficiently, that on one occasion they beat us to our room! We had a call and were asked by reception staff at various points if everything was OK with the room and items we had booked. Attention to detail was excellent and we felt very much that our comfort and enjoyment was genuinely a priority not just a task to be performed. The room was suite and of a very good size, with a seperate toilet to the bathroom - perfect. Everywhere was clean and well maintained and there were staff around to ask questions of or serve as needed. Wait times anywhere were either non existent or were not long and reception made recommendation of places to go and experiences. it is well placed for several excursions and we will be going back, more than once to try them all out. I have an unusual allergy and at one point the chef came out to check something was suitable for the afternoon tea. The music in the bar was at the right level definitely there but not overpowering. There were lots of relaxed people around, clearly enjoying the atmosphere.
