About Linton Lodge a BW Signature Collection Hotel

A hearty breakfast spread and a relaxed bar area are among the strong points at Linton Lodge, a BW Signature Collection Hotel in North Oxford. The restaurant and bar give guests somewhere proper to start and end the day, with room service and packed lunches also available for those heading out to explore.

The 87 rooms are comfortable, with beds that guests consistently rate well, en-suite bathrooms, and family and accessible options among them. It's worth noting that some rooms show their age and soundproofing isn't always effective, so light sleepers might want to bear this in mind. Elsewhere the hotel offers a lift, a garden and picnic area, outdoor seating, laundry and concierge services, and facilities for business meetings or weddings.

Staff are consistently described as friendly and helpful, and the location adds to the appeal: the hotel sits a short distance from Oxford's city centre and close to the University parks, with pubs, restaurants and entertainment nearby, plus golf, fishing and horse riding within reach for those wanting to venture further. On-site parking is available for a charge.

This is a simple hotel, located between the university and Summerville. If you don't have a car, the location is not convenient as there's nothing close by - restaurants or supermarkets. There's a simple bar/restaurant with a limited menu closing at 9.30pm. It helps you not starving, but don't expect anything fancy. The room is OK, comfortable bed, desk, wardrobe, bathroom with shower, sink and toilet. For me, the worst was the noise. The noise insulation is poor and I could clearly hear people passing on the corridor, and doors banging all around. The place only makes sense if the price is really competitive.

As a frequent traveler, I have never seen this many spider webs in one place in my life.The hotel's design and the staff's helpfulness with room changes were good. Room quality is quite inconsistent some rooms are very old, while others are brand new. However, I had to change rooms twice because the first two rooms I stayed in had massive spiders in every corner, on the curtains, and even on the ceiling lights. Seeing the exact same situation in the second room, I realized it was a hotelwide issue and gave up trying to move again. Hotel management urgently needs to step in and take care of this property. Leaving windows wide open after housekeeping and skipping pest control is truly ruining what could otherwise be a great place.

Mixed experience. The room was dark and damp, but also very hot without an opening window or effective air conditioning during the latest heatwave. A fan was provided but it’s quite noisy then. BBC1 wasn’t working properly on the TV but was fine for example in the small lounge near the lobby. Just on the same night England had a World Cup game! Wifi was so weak in the room that I couldn't even get e-mails done, let alone use iPlayer to watch the match with audio. Breakfast was good in parts - nice sausages and croissants - but both types of eggs were disgusting and the coffee machine had no milk in it. The location is of course lovely, with the centre walkable and in a quiet suburban street. In a city with few affordable options, this is at least that.

Booked direct. Arrived and was told I had only booked for one person and to add an extra person it was £10 per night (we weren’t having breakfast). It was only later I thought to check by making a dummy booking for next weekend and I get the same price of £313.20 regardless of the number of people. I can only assume the receptionist pocketed the £20. We arrived at 1.30pm so knew there was a chance the room wouldn’t be ready and were told it would be ready at exactly 3pm. We were told the room number though to log onto WiFi and the room faced the car park so I was able to go and look through the window to see that in fact the room was ready Oxford was warm this weekend. Close to 30c. There’s aircon in the room but no controller. We went and asked for it were told that the aircon was broken. So rather than fixing it they just removed the control. The alternative was a desk fan which was of little use. There’s no fridge in the room so you can’t have a cold drink. The shower doors aren’t in the grooves properly so the bathroom floods each time you shower. At £140 a night you’d expect a bit more
