The 16-room, two-and-a-half-pearl Buttery Hotel is exceptionally well-located in the heart of historic Oxford, within walking distance of the university and local attractions. Rooms are basic and can seem dated, but they have AC and coffee- tea-making facilities. The first floor cafe has a charming local feel, and rates include a continental breakfast, although hot items cost extra. Parking can be a bit of a problem in this area, and there's no parking on-site. The Travelodge Oxford Peartree Hotel is another option for budget lodging with more standard chain-hotel amenities and decor.

The Oxford Hotel isn't going to win any awards for architecture or interior design -- it's all rather boxy, inelegant, and uninspired. Access from the motorway makes it very convenient for drivers, however, as does the large parking lot. Guest rooms are on the bland side, though high-end toiletries are a plus. Drinking and dining options, together with the health club and facilities for business travelers, might justify visitors choosing this property, though for a bit more charm take a look at the Cotswold Lodge Hotel, which is also closer to Oxford center than The Oxford Hotel.
