About The Osney Arms Guest House

The Osney Arms Guest House is a small, ten-room property on Botley Road in Oxford, built along more understated lines than the city's grander hotels but well equipped for what it is. Rooms are simple and comfortable rather than showy, and each comes with free WiFi and drinks provided in-room, with breakfast included to start the day.

Despite its modest size, the guest house has surprising range in its facilities: a restaurant and bar, an indoor swimming pool, a spa and sauna, and even meeting rooms and a wedding venue for those wanting to host something more formal. A lift makes moving between floors easy, and porter and concierge services, along with luggage storage and a laundry service, take care of the practical side of a stay. Outside, there's a garden and courtyard for sitting out.

Free on-site parking is available, useful given the address on Botley Road, and airport transfers can be arranged for onward travel. It's a straightforward base for exploring Oxford, with the comforts of a much larger hotel packed into a small-scale setting.

J Sutton

We had a wonderful stay at The Osney Arms Guest House. While there is no air conditioning, the room had windows that opened for fresh air, and a fan was provided, which kept the room comfortable. The hosts also provided complimentary water and food, which was a thoughtful touch and made us feel very welcome. The self-check-in process was simple, the property was easy to access, and the location was excellent for exploring Oxford. The room was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for our stay. The attention to guest comfort and the little extras made a big difference. We would gladly stay here again and highly recommend The Osney Arms to anyone visiting Oxford.

really lovely place to stay. close to train station and easy walking distance from the city center. breakfast is good, lots of options and choices of cereals, toast, pastries, fruit, and coffee with dairy and nondairy milk options. room was clean and quiet. good heating for january. bathroom water was a good temperature for showering. couldn't hear road noise from the room which was nice. towels, soap, and lotion were provided. towels were really soft. only thing is our door opened kinda funny, backwards of what you would think but it wasn't an issue once we knew that after the first time :) owner is super sweet, responds to queries quickly and is very helpful. we were able to check in around 1pm and get access to our room early, which was really appreciated. i would love to stay here again!

About a mile from the heart of Oxford, pleasant walk. Very quiet, comfortable, and clean. Wonderful breakfast! It was lovely to sit at table with fellow guests and chat. Perfect place for my daughter and me.

Wonderful place to stay, clean and comfortable and an easy short walk into Oxford City centre. The self check in was straightforward to use and there was a very generous self serve breakfast included in the price. The hosts were easy to contact and extremely helpful and accommodating.
